	Remarks at 2004 J. William Fulbright Prize for International Understanding Ceremony
		Fulbrighters have also been extraordinarily active and successful in the world: 34 have won Nobel prizes; 65 have won Pulitzer prizes; 21 have received MacArthur Foundation "Genius" Awards; 14 have received the presidential medal of freedom, our nation's highest honor.
		And Fulbright scholars have generally been successful in ways that advance both American interests and principles -- a Fulbrighter: Armindo Maia, helped lead East Timor’s struggle for freedom and democracy; Alejandro Toledo, a shoeshine boy turned economist, and now the president of Peru, was a Fulbright scholar at Stanford.
		But whether they become prime ministers or poets, scientists or senators, educators or engineers, Fulbrighters have all carried with them a better understanding of cultures other than their own, and as a result, they serve as agents of change, they shape opinions, and they contribute to the advancement of both knowledge and international understanding.
