The United States has been enriched by Muslim Americans. Many other Americans have Muslims in their families or have lived in a Muslim-majority country - I know, because I am one of them.
Barack Obama
We must build a world free of unnecessary barriers, stereotypes, and discrimination. ... policies must be developed, attitudes must be shaped, and buildings and organizations must be designed to ensure that everyone has a chance to get the education they need and live independently as full citizens in their communities.
Barack Obama
I've said this before, and I know this raises questions in the minds of some evangelicals. I do not believe that my mother, who never formally embraced Christianity as far as I know ... I do not believe she went to hell.
Barack Obama
We have to be successful at the cutting-edge industries of the future like Twitter. But we also have always been a country that makes stuff.

Even while we may at times disagree, as friends sometimes will, the bonds between the United States and Israel are unbreakable and the commitment of the United States to the security of Israel is ironclad.

But race is an issue that I believe this nation cannot afford to ignore right now. We would be making the same mistake that Reverend Wright made in his offending sermons about America - to simplify and stereotype and amplify the negative to the point that it distorts reality.
Barack Obama
I believe in the redemptive death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Barack Obama
I can guarantee that not because I give Attorney General [Loretta] Lynch a directive. That is institutionally how we have always operated. I do not talk to the attorney general about pending investigations [On Hillary Clinton].
Barack Obama
I think it's a healthy thing for the Democratic Party to go through some reflection.
Barack Obama
I have Muslim members of my family. I have lived in Muslim countries.
Barack Obama
It was young people who stubbornly insisted on justice, stubbornly refused to accept the world as it is that transformed not just the country but transformed the world.
Barack Obama
We can't afford more top-down economics. What we need are policies that will grow and strengthen the middle class.
Barack Obama
While the future is unknowable, the winds always blow in the direction of human progress.
Barack Obama
You're not going to be able to make good decisions without building some relationship of trust between yourself and community.
Barack Obama
I don't think marriage is a civil right, but I think that being able to transfer property is a civil right.
Barack Obama
We, the people, still believe that our obligations as Americans are not just to ourselves, but to all posterity.
Barack Obama
All of us share this world for but a brief moment in time. The question is whether we spend that time focused on what pushes us apart, or whether we commit ourselves to an effort -- a sustained effort -- to find common ground, to focus on the future we seek for our children, and to respect the dignity of all human beings.
Barack Obama
