More quotes by Barack Obama

Barack Obama
I wish the country had fewer lawyers and more engineers.
Barack Obama
In the end, that's what this election is about. Do we participate in a politics of cynicism or a politics of hope?

Barack Obama
The key is whether or not we have got priorities that are working for you, as opposed to those who have been dictating the policy in Washington lately. And that's mostly lobbyists and special interests. We have got to put an end to that.
Barack Obama
Being attentive to inequality and not tone deaf to it. But offering prescriptions that are actually going to help folks in communities that feel forgotten. That's going to be our most important strategy. And I think we can successfully do that.
Barack Obama
But it will depend on young people like you being open to new ideas and new possibilities. And it will require young people like you never to stereotype or assume the worst about other people.
Barack Obama
The genius of our founders is that they designed a system of government that can be changed. And we should take heart, because we’ve changed this country before.
Barack Obama
He described to me how crocodiles kill more people than sharks. There are just a lot of things in Australia that can kill you.
Barack Obama
I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home, we will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank.
Barack Obama
I'm not just a candidate, I'm the President
Barack Obama
