Barack Obama
Now, as a nation, we don't promise equal outcomes, but we were founded on the idea everybody should have an equal opportunity to succeed. No matter who you are, what you look like, where you come from, you can make it. That's an essential promise of America. Where you start should not determine where you end up.
Barack Obama

Barack Obama
We have a rare chance to pursue a new path, a different, better future that delivers progress for both our peoples and the wider world. That's the opportunity before the Iranian people. We need to take advantage of that.
Barack Obama
After all, there were thousands of so-called campus radicals, most of them white and tenured and happily tolerated. No, it remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.
Barack Obama
When you try to sow the seeds of doubt in people`s minds about the legitimacy of our election, that undermines democracy. Then you`re doing the work of our adversaries for them.
Barack Obama
If you ask the average person they'd tell ya, Naw, it's much more dangerous, despite the fact that violent crime has dropped precipitously.
Barack Obama
When we start using religion as a bludgeon in politics, when we start questioning other people's faith, we start using religion to divide, instead of bring the country together, then I think we've got a problem.
Barack Obama
I do not believe being gay or lesbian is a choice.
Barack Obama
The most frustrated and most stymied it is the fact that the United States of America is the one advanced nation on earth in which we do not have sufficient common-sense, gun-safety laws. Even in the face of repeated mass killings.
Barack Obama
I've been saying for years, we're gonna have to spend a lot more time on cyber security.
Barack Obama
I think it's a healthy thing for the Democratic Party to go through some reflection.
Barack Obama
I am the eternal optimist. I think that, over time, people respond to civility and -- and rational argument.
Barack Obama
Higher education cannot be a luxury reserved just for a privileged few. It is an economic necessity for every family. And every family should be able to afford it.
Barack Obama
We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories.
