And if we walk away now, if we simply retreat into our respective corners, we will never be able to come together and solve challenges like health care, or education, or the need to find good jobs for every American.
Barack Obama

My hope is that we can get a Republican-Democratic agreement on how we strengthen Social Security as well as looking at some of these other major expenditures that we have that we've got to deal with to make sure that we're not just leaving you guys with a mountain of debt.
Barack Obama

We've endured too many tragedies. And each time I learn the news I react not as a President, but as anybody else would - as a parent.
Barack Obama
Image
All of us - we should do everything we can to make sure this country lives up to our children's expectations.
