No one nation can or should try to dominate another nation.
Barack Obama

What we shouldn't be doing is trying to take away your rights to bargain for better wages or working conditions... These so-called right to work laws, they don't have to do with economics they have everything to do with politics. What they're really talking about is giving you the right to work for less money.

Their foreign policy is so disjointed, confusing, and chaotic that, really, people need to reexamine those who want to be involved in every war.
Barack Obama

The best judge of whether or not a country is going to develop is how it treats its women. If it's educating its girls, if women have equal rights, that country is going to move forward. But if women are oppressed and abused and illiterate, then they're going to fall behind.
Barack Obama

Cutting the deficit by gutting our investments in innovation and education is like lightening an overloaded airplane by removing its engine. It may make you feel like you're flying high at first, but it won't take long before you feel the impact.
Barack Obama

We have known for decades that our survival depends on finding new sources of energy. Yet we import more oil today than ever before.
Barack Obama

One of the things I think the next president has to do is to stop fanning people's fears. If we spend all our time feeding the American people fear and conflict and division, then they become fearful and conflicted and divided. And if we feed them hope and we feed them reason and tolerance, then they will become tolerant and reasonable and hopeful.

Part of people's concern is just the sense that around the world the old order isn't holding and we're not quite yet to where we need to be in terms of a new order that's based on a different set of principles, that's based on a sense of common humanity, that's based on economies that work for all people.

My view is that discrimination against anyone at the ballot box is wrong and should have the full enforcement of the federal government.
