More quotes by Barack Obama
I hope we can all agree that, instead of continuing to subsidize yesterday's energy sources. We need to invest in tomorrow's.
Barack Obama
You have to exercise, or at some point you'll just break down.
Barack Obama
What I could not support was a dumb war, a rash war, a war based not on reason but on passion, not on principle but on politics.
Barack Obama
If you don't have a record to run on, you paint your opponent as someone to run from.
Barack Obama
Those are the ladies sitting in church. And in the same way that they might feel a joy and release on Sunday, they are still going to work on Monday. And that's who I was listening to during this process. And if at the end of my presidency they feel like I did a pretty good job, then I'll feel pretty good.
Barack Obama
For decades, we've been told that it doesn't make economic sense to switch to renewable energy. Today, that's no longer true.
Barack Obama
We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.
Barack Obama
There's no doubt that I'm a better president now than when I first took office. This is not a job where there's a manual, and over time you get a better sense of what's important, what's not, how to see around corners and anticipate problems, as opposed to just managing problems once they've arrived.
Barack Obama
It is our generation's task, then, to reignite the true engine of America's economic growth - a rising, thriving middle class.
Barack Obama
Keep in mind that, when I came in, we had had a crisis that was the worst we've seen since the 1930s, and working with people like Chancellor Merkel, working with the G-20 and other institutions internationally, we were able to stabilize the financial system, stabilize the US economy and return to growth.
Barack Obama
I've said this before, and I know this raises questions in the minds of some evangelicals. I do not believe that my mother, who never formally embraced Christianity as far as I know ... I do not believe she went to hell.
Barack Obama
On Easter I do reflect on the fact that as a Christian I am supposed to love, and I have to say that sometimes, when I've listened to less-than-loving expressions by Christians, I get concerned.
Barack Obama
People who have health insurance are benefiting in all sorts of ways that they may not be aware of, everything from no longer having lifetime limits on the claims that they can make to seniors getting prescription drug discounts under Medicare to free mammograms.
Barack Obama
The problem is that because the voucher wouldn't necessarily keep up with health care inflation, it was estimated that this would cost the average senior about $6,000 a year.
Barack Obama
What is true, though, is now we've got a bunch of videos that whatever side of the issue you're on, raises the temperature on these issues and makes people really focused .
Barack Obama
The United States has been a Pacific nation for over two centuries. That's not going to change.
Barack Obama
Obviously, if Congress wants to talk about anything, we're happy to provide information. We're committed to moving forward under the current act.
Barack Obama
And so our goal on health care is, if we can get, instead of health care costs going up 6 percent a year, it's going up at the level of inflation, maybe just slightly above inflation, we've made huge progress. And by the way, that is the single most important thing we could do in terms of reducing our deficit. That's why we did it.
Barack Obama
Our friends at the Republican convention were more than happy to talk about everything they think is wrong with America, but they didn't have much to say about how they'd make it right. They want your vote, but they don't want you to know their plan.
Barack Obama
I think that most Americans don't resent people for getting rich. They want to get rich themselves.
Barack Obama
