More quotes by Barack Obama
One of the issues the Democrats have to be clear on is the given population distribution across the country. We have to compete everywhere. We have to show up everywhere. We have to work at a grassroots level, something that's been a running thread in my career.
Barack Obama
Washington is a place where good ideas go to die.
Barack Obama
Our founders made it extraordinarily difficult to amend the Constitution.
Barack Obama

Barack Obama
I think that Mr. Snowden raised some legitimate concerns. How he did it was something that did not follow the procedures and practices of our intelligence community. If everybody took the approach that I make my own decisions about these issues, then it would be very hard to have an organized government or any kind of national security system.
Barack Obama
I am not in favor of concealed weapons. I think that creates a potential atmosphere where more innocent people could (get shot during) altercations.
Barack Obama
Politics has never been for the thin-skinned or the faint-of-heart, and if you enter the arena, you should expect to get roughed up.
Barack Obama
We will not apologise for our way of life.
Barack Obama
Mitt Romney is familiar with jobs being shipped overseas because he invested in companies that were shipping jobs overseas.
Barack Obama
Cool, logical, big-eared and level-headed, the center of Star Trek's optimistic, inclusive vision of humanity's future. I loved Spock.
Barack Obama
To keep Nigeria ONE, is a task that must be DONE.
Barack Obama
One of the things that you learn, having been in this [President's] office for four years, is the old adage of Abraham Lincoln's. That with public opinion there's nothing you can't do and without public opinion there's very little you can get done.
Barack Obama
If there's one thing I would like to see, it'd be for us to be able to price the cost of carbon emissions.
Barack Obama
