More quotes by Barack Obama
Michelle [Obama] never fully took to the scrutiny. I mean, she's thrived as a first lady, but it's not her preference.
Barack Obama
Just as black anger often proved counterproductive, so have these white resentments distracted attention from the real culprits of the middle class squeeze - a corporate culture rife with inside dealing, questionable accounting practices, and short-term greed.
Barack Obama
The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I, therefore, intend to oppose the effort to increase America's debt.
Barack Obama
Health care got done because there were a lot of people out there who aren't professional politicians, but are citizens, who pushed for it even when the politics was hard.
Barack Obama
The United States is imposing sanctions on individuals and companies working to advance Iran's ballistic missile program, and we are going to remain vigilant about it. We're not going to waver in the defense of our security or that of our allies and partners.
Barack Obama
It's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them, or anti-immigrant sentiment, or anti-trade sentiment, as a way to explain their frustrations.
Barack Obama
I, more than anything, obviously the presidency is the people, and it's been interesting the emotions in the last few months. What you realize is that you may never have the team that is together in the same way, under the same pressures, and the attachments that you make to folks from your chief of staff down to.
Barack Obama
Will not collect a ransom in exchange for not crashing the American economy.
Barack Obama
If there's one thing I would like to see, it'd be for us to be able to price the cost of carbon emissions.
Barack Obama
If I were German and I had a vote, I might support Angela Merkel.
Barack Obama
What is portrayed as high-minded positions on issues sometimes is just designed to carve out some of their commercial interests.
Barack Obama
Each wave of immigrants that have come in have been able to assimilate, integrate and then rise up and become part of this great American Dream.
Barack Obama
I think it is important for Europe to understand that even though I am president and George Bush is not president, Al Qaeda is still a threat.
Barack Obama
The violence engulfing the region today has made too many Israelis ready to abandon the hard work of peace. But let’s be clear: the status quo in the West Bank and Gaza is not sustainable.
Barack Obama
The law is a powerful thing but the law doesn't always change what's in people's hearts. And so all of us have an obligation to think about how we're treating other people.
Barack Obama
I want every young man who sees me to know that I'm not that different from them. I wasn't born into wealth. I wasn't born into fame. I made a lot of mistakes - but I kept at it.
Barack Obama
That is the nature of democracy. It is hard. It is not always inspiring.
Barack Obama
We want our children to live in an America that isn't burdened by debt, that isn't weakened by inequality, that isn't threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet.
Barack Obama
If you want to know who we are, who America is, how we respond to evil-that's it: selflessly, compassionately, unafraid.
Barack Obama
I can be much more sarcastic and, I think, sometimes withering in my assessments of things than I allow to show in my public life.
Barack Obama
