The federal government and our democracy is not a speedboat. It's an oceanliner, as I discovered when I came into office.

I think what grows the economy is when you get that tax credit that we put in place for your kids going to college. I think that grows the economy.

I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I am not in favor of gay marriage. But when you start playing around with constitutions, just to prohibit somebody who cares about another person, it just seems to me that's not what America's about. Usually, our constitutions expand liberties, they don't contract them.
Barack Obama
Image
I'm not somebody who is always comfortable with language that implies I've got a monopoly on the truth, or that my faith is automatically transferable to others.
Barack Obama

I can make a firm pledge, under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes.

There may be no greater tribute to Steve Jobs' success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented.
