Laura Bush in Afghanistan

U.S. first lady Laura Bush visited Kabul University and promoted educational opportunities for women in Afghanistan.

"Democracy is more than just elections. The survival of a free society ultimately depends on the participation of all of its citizens, both men and women," Mrs. Bush, a former schoolteacher and librarian, said.

Mrs. Bush dined with troops before visiting the University.

"Thanks to you, millions of little girls are going to school in this country, little girls who were denied an education just three years ago," Bush told troops at Bagram before she left.
