Barack Obama
When I ran for the U.S. Senate the assumption was that anyone's name that was close to Osama doesn't stand a chance. So if somebody thought that tacking on Hussein in there would be a killer, then I think they underestimate the American people and the seriousness of the problems we face.
Barack Obama
I feel good when I'm engaged in what I think are the core issues of the society, and those core issues to me are what's happening to poor folks in this society.
Barack Obama
In the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.
