More quotes by Barack Obama

I do think that I have a better sense of how military action can result in unintended consequences.

Barack Obama
You now have the potential of 200 people deciding who ends up being elected president every single time.
Barack Obama
[ William Ayers] is an example of what I'm talking about. This is a guy who lives in my neighborhood, who's a professor of English in Chicago who I know and who I have not received some official endorsement from. He's not somebody who I exchange ideas from on a regular basis.
Barack Obama
Generally speaking in America, a lot of environmentally problematic facilities tend to be located in places where poor folks live because wealthier folks have the ability to say, not in my backyard.
Barack Obama
If you give up on the idea that your voice can make a difference, then other voices will fill the void
