More quotes by Barack Obama
We remain more than a collection of red states and blue states. We are and forever will be the United States of America.
Barack Obama
The spirit's there and that's not just my imagination. I think if you look at surveys and attitudes among young people, you see it.
Barack Obama
Nothing will deter us from building the future we want for our children. What greater rejection of those who would tear down our world than marshaling our best efforts to save it.
Barack Obama
I honor, we honor the service of John McCain, and I respect his many accomplishments, even if he chooses to deny mine. My differences with him are not personal they are with the policies he has proposed in this campaign.
Barack Obama
Everybody knows politics is a contact sport.
Barack Obama
Don't shortchange the future, because of fear in the present.
Barack Obama
On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.
Barack Obama
Every decision, every debate, no matter how important it is, with the same question: 'What does this mean for the next election? What does it mean for your poll numbers? Is this good for the Democrats or good for the Republicans? Who won the news cycle?' That's just how Washington is. They can't help it. They're obsessed with the sport of politics.
Barack Obama
Sometimes when these kinds of things happen, it can seem a little bit too much to bear. But what I want the people of Louisiana know is that you're not alone on this. Even after the TV cameras leave, the whole country is going to continue to support you and help you until we get folks back in their homes and lives are rebuilt.
Barack Obama
My hope and expectation is that regardless of what Donald Trump said during the campaign, he's going to have to look carefully at the realities when he moves forward.
Barack Obama
We will stand against violence and intimidation. We will stand for the rights and dignity of all human beings.
Barack Obama
Change has come to America.
Barack Obama
Leaving the broken system the way it is, that`s not a solution.
Barack Obama
I'm going to insist on making sure that we've got decent funding, that we've got enough teachers, that we've got computers in the classroom, but unless you turn off the television set and get over a certain anti-intellectualism that I think pervades some low-income communities, our children are not going to achieve.
Barack Obama
In Indonesia, I had spent two years at a Muslim school, two years at a Catholic school. In the Muslim school, the teacher wrote to tell my mother that I made faces during Koranic studies.
Barack Obama
We've got some fundamental choices to make about the kind of country we want to be. Will we accept an economy where only a few of us do spectacularly well, or are we going to build an economy where everyone who works hard has a chance to get ahead?
Barack Obama
[We should beware] that our democracy stays healthy. And making sure that we maintain that sense of solidarity.
Barack Obama
In America, one of our challenges, historically, is that we have very low voting rates, even during presidential elections.
Barack Obama
Even as we implement the nuclear deal and welcome our Americans home, we recognize that there remain about differences between the United States and Iran. We remain steadfast in opposing Iran's destabilizing behavior elsewhere, including its against Israel and our Gulf partners and its support for violent proxies in places like Syria and Yemen.
Barack Obama
The truth is, some of these comments, when you actually ask 'well, this is based on what? This notion that Obama's a socialist, for example?' Nobody can really give you a good answer.
Barack Obama
