More quotes by Barack Obama
Libya is still a mess right now.
Barack Obama
Higher education cannot be a luxury reserved just for a privileged few. It is an economic necessity for every family. And every family should be able to afford it.
Barack Obama
And we have done more in the two and a half years that I've been in here than the previous 43 Presidents to uphold that principle, whether it's ending 'don't ask, don't tell,' making sure that gay and lesbian partners can visit each other in hospitals, making sure that federal benefits can be provided to same-sex couples.
Barack Obama
We are at a time in our country's history that inclusive language is better than exclusive language.
Barack Obama
When you take on the position of president, you are committing yourself to, first and foremost, protecting the American people. You are accepting an institutional role that requires you to make hard decisions and hard choices, and as a consequence you have to take your moral sense and not put it aside.
Barack Obama
That's where peace begins - not just in the plans of leaders, but in the hearts of people. Not just in some carefully designed process, but in the daily connections - that sense of empathy that takes place among those who live together in this land and in this sacred city of Jerusalem.
Barack Obama
Slowly, but surely, we are moving in the right direction. We're on the right track. The economy is getting stronger
Barack Obama
I believe in term limits for presidents because I think that there is no doubt I'm a better president now than I was when I start.
Barack Obama
We [USA] don't have diplomatic leverage to eliminate every vestige of a peaceful nuclear program in Iran. What we do have the leverage to do is to make sure that they don't have a weapon.
Barack Obama
Look at Chancellor [Angela] Merkel, her personal story helps to tell a story of incredible achievement that the German people have embarked on and I think is something that you should be very proud of.
Barack Obama
This kind of game in which anybody who I know, regardless of how flimsy the relationship is, that somehow their ideas could be attributed to me, I think the American people are smarter than that. They're not going to suggest somehow that that is reflective of my views, because it obviously isn't.
Barack Obama
We, the people, still believe that our obligations as Americans are not just to ourselves, but to all posterity.
Barack Obama
We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories.
Barack Obama
To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists and punk-rock performance poets.
Barack Obama
The reason I take pride for that is one of the things you worry about when you're in the bubble, and there's all this pomp and circumstance and hail to the chief is, do you lose touch with what you thought was important and what brought you here? And I'm proud that I don't think I have lost touch.
Barack Obama
When it comes to crime, the violent crime rate in America has been lowered during my presidency and any time in the last three, four decades.
Barack Obama
We can lead this world and make it safer and more secure for our children and our grandchildren, for generations to come.
Barack Obama
It should be the power of our vote, not the size of our bank accounts, that drives our democracy
Barack Obama
The amount of information, the amount of incoming that any administration has to deal with today and respond to much more rapidly than ever before, that makes it different.
Barack Obama
I think [ unpopular presidential candidates ] indicates, at least on the Democratic side, that we've got more work to do to strengthen our grassroots networks.
Barack Obama
