More quotes by Barack Obama
I'm skeptical that [the Republicans] can do [something better with healthcare] mainly because for seven years now, including when we first tried to pass health care, I said to 'em, Okay, if [Obamacare] doesn't work tell me what does.
Barack Obama
The dollar is the reserve currency of the world.
Barack Obama
I find it hard to believe that my God would consign four-fifths of the world to hell. I can't imagine that my God would allow some little Hindu kid in India who never interacts with the Christian faith to somehow burn for all eternity. That's just not part of my religious makeup.
Barack Obama
Let's remember that our leadership is defined not just by our defence against threats, but by the enormous opportunities to do good and promote understanding.
Barack Obama
We don't quit. I don't quit. Let's seize this moment.
Barack Obama
I have been in Washington for a while now, and most things don't surprise me. The fact that twenty 6-year-olds were gunned down in the most violent fashion possible and this town couldn't do anything about it was stunning to me.
Barack Obama
It is time to do away with work place policies that belong in a Mad Men episode.
Barack Obama
I think I have a pretty good take on popular culture that maybe makes up for the fact that I'm not a sound-bite politician for the nightly news.
Barack Obama
Legislatively, the thing I'm most proud of is healthcare, and I will continue to be most proud of it because not only do we have 30 million people who are going to get healthcare, we've got six million young people who are able to stay on their parents' plan until they're 26.
Barack Obama
We stand with women by fighting for economic security, protecting access to health care and supporting women's leadership across the country
Barack Obama
The capacity of Iraq's security forces has improved, and Iraq's leaders have made strides toward political accommodation
Barack Obama
No one built this country on their own. This nation is great because we built it together.
Barack Obama
Call Loretta Lynch for a vote. Get her confirmed. Put her in place. Let her do her job.
Barack Obama
And so our goal on health care is, if we can get, instead of health care costs going up 6 percent a year, it's going up at the level of inflation, maybe just slightly above inflation, we've made huge progress. And by the way, that is the single most important thing we could do in terms of reducing our deficit. That's why we did it.
Barack Obama
There are times where I've made mistakes or our administration hasn't always aligned ourselves with the values we need to align ourselves with. It's a work of constant improvement.
Barack Obama
We don't really have any kind of regulatory structure at all.
Barack Obama
And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to the suffering outside our borders nor can we consume the world's resources without regard to effect. For the world has changed, and we must change with it.
Barack Obama
If we win all those fights, and now let's say the income gap, and the wealth gap, and the education gap have for the most part been closed - let's say hypothetically, , first of all, America as a whole would be a lot richer.
Barack Obama
There is enough oil out there for world demand. It is true that a lot of what's driving oil prices up right now is not the lack of supply. There's enough supply.
Barack Obama
My fellow Americans, we are and always will be a nation of immigrants. We were strangers once, too.
Barack Obama
