More quotes by Barack Obama
I'm going to tell the American people what I believe will make this country great.
Barack Obama
I think that America has to stand with democracy.
Barack Obama
Of all the rocks upon which we build our lives, we are reminded today that family is the most important. And we are called to recognize and honor how critical every father is to that foundation. They are teachers and coaches. They are mentors and role models. They are examples of success and the men who constantly push us toward it.
Barack Obama
Unemployment is low, incomes are up, poverty is down - and that's going to be a lasting change.
Barack Obama
We run everything to ground. If you see something, say something. Report your concerns to law enforcement. They will be looked at, they will be reviewed.
Barack Obama
Contrary to the claims of some of my critics and some of the editorial pages, I am an ardent believer in the free market.
Barack Obama
I learned to slip back and forth between my black and white worlds. One of those tricks I had learned: People were satisfied so long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves. They were more than satisfied they were relieved -- such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn't seem angry all the time.
Barack Obama
Trump is not somebody who`s fit to be president in any circumstances. I would feel deeply frustrated, not because anything he said about me, but because I would fear for the future of our country.
Barack Obama
Not out of mere charity, but because peace in our time requires the constant advance of those principles that our common creed describes tolerance and opportunity, human dignity and justice.
Barack Obama
Some of Donald Trump's gifts that obviously allowed him to execute one of the biggest political upsets in history, those are ones that hopefully he will put to good use on behalf of all the American people.
Barack Obama
I strongly agree with Vice President Gore that we cannot drill our way to energy independence, but must fast-track investments in renewable sources of energy like solar power, wind power and advanced biofuels...
Barack Obama
It continues to be my strong belief that the way we are going to make sure that everybody feels a part of this global economy is not by shutting ourselves off from each other, even if we could, but rather by working together more effectively than we have in the past.
Barack Obama
When I've sent young men and women into harm's way, I always understand that that is the last resort, not the first resort.
Barack Obama
We want everybody to act like adults, quit playing games, realize that it's not just my way or the highway.
Barack Obama
I honor, we honor the service of John McCain, and I respect his many accomplishments, even if he chooses to deny mine. My differences with him are not personal they are with the policies he has proposed in this campaign.
Barack Obama
Our campaign was not hatched in the halls of Washington -- it began in the backyards of Des Moines and the living rooms of Concord and the front porches of Charleston. ...This is your victory.
Barack Obama
Corporations aren’t people. People are people.
Barack Obama
If we have a phased redeployment where we're as careful getting out as we were careless getting in, then there's not reason why we shouldn't be able to prevent the wholesale slaughter I think some people have suggested might occur.
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
Fighting for what you think is right is always worth it.
Barack Obama
