Some of Donald Trump's gifts that obviously allowed him to execute one of the biggest political upsets in history, those are ones that hopefully he will put to good use on behalf of all the American people.
Barack Obama
Image
Hope is the bedrock of this nation. The belief that our destiny will not be written for us, but by us, by all those men and women who are not content to settle for the world as it is, who have the courage to remake the world as it should be.
Barack Obama
Image
I will work every single day to make sure that America continues to be the greatest nation on earth.
Barack Obama
Image
People are very hungry for something new. I think they are interested in being called to be a part of something larger than the sort of small, petty, slash-and-burn politics that we have been seeing over the last several years.
Barack Obama
Image
One of the things you discover about being president is that there are all these rules and norms and laws and you got to pay attention to them.
Barack Obama

The politics around trade has always been tough, particularly in the Democratic party, because people have memories of outsourcing and job loss.
Barack Obama

Our intelligence agencies will continue to gather information about the intentions of governments - as opposed to ordinary citizens - around the world, in the same way that the intelligence services of every other nation does. We will not apologize simply because our services may be more effective.

Angela [Merkel] and I also agreed the need for a comprehensive and humane response to the devastating humanitarian crisis in Syria and for the influx of migrants and refugees from around the world. We need to build on the progress achieved at the U.N. Refugee Summit, which yielded new commitments from some 50 nations and organizations.

Only a handful of men and women leave an imprint on the conscience of a nation and on the history that they helped shape.
Barack Obama
Image
I think at a certain age I became conscious of the power of words. And it was fairly late. I was kind of a goofball - but I was always subconsciously thinking about issues.
Barack Obama
Image
It's also wonderful to be back with my great friend and ally, Chancellor [Angela] Merkel. As I reflect back over the last eight years, I could not ask for a steadier or more reliable partner on the world stage, often through some very challenging times.

You don't need to see my birth certificate, or my college records, or my legal writings, or... anything.

I look forward to hosting an Iftar dinner celebrating Ramadan here at the White House later this week, and wish you a blessed month.
Barack Obama
Image
A better politics is one where we appeal to each other’s basic decency instead of our basest fears.
Barack Obama
Image
Many of us were kind of irritated with Obama for larding it with tax cut, which we didn't think was going to be stimulative.
Barack Obama
Image
[White House] feels even more like home now because you have all these memories that were formed watching your kids grow up.

I've called Chicago home for nearly 25 years. It's a city of broad shoulders and big hearts and bold dreams a city of legendary sports figures, legendary sports venues, and legendary sports fans.

A nuclear Iran is a threat to America's national security, and it is a threat to Israel's national security. We cannot afford to have a nuclear arms race in the most volatile region of the world.
Barack Obama
Image
Think about it: Iran, Cuba, Venezuela - these countries are tiny compared to the Soviet Union. They don't pose a serious threat to us the way the Soviet Union posed a threat to us.

If American workers are being denied their right to organize and collectively bargain when I'm in the White House, I'll put on a comfortable pair of shoes myself. I'll walk on that picket line with you as President of the United States of America, because workers deserve to know that somebody is standing in their corner.
