More quotes by Barack Obama
When individuals get crowbars and start prying open doors to loot, they're not protesting. They're not making a statement. They're stealing. When they burn down a building, they're committing arson.
Barack Obama
I think that we are in a position to continue to make progress, but it's gonna require us to both recognize what the problems are, also recognize the progress we've made. Last point I'd make on this, since we're on criminal justice: During the course of my presidency crime has been the lowest it's been probably since the '60s.
Barack Obama
When we think of the major threats to our national security, the first to come to mind are nuclear proliferation, rogue states and global terrorism. But another kind of threat lurks beyond our shores, one from nature, not humans - an avian flu pandemic.
Barack Obama
I, more than anything, obviously the presidency is the people, and it's been interesting the emotions in the last few months. What you realize is that you may never have the team that is together in the same way, under the same pressures, and the attachments that you make to folks from your chief of staff down to.
Barack Obama
We have to uphold a free press and freedom of speech - because, in the end, lies and misinformation are no match for the truth.
Barack Obama
When times get tough, we don't give up. We get up.
Barack Obama
Africa doesn't need strongmen, it needs strong institutions.
Barack Obama
I think that there's no doubt that as I see friends, families, children of gay couples who are thriving, you know, that has an impact on how I think about these issues.
Barack Obama
I think we did a really good job in saving this economy and putting us back on the track of growth.
Barack Obama
Those aren't the kinds of folks who represent our core American values.
Barack Obama
We will stand against violence and intimidation. We will stand for the rights and dignity of all human beings.
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
Unlike my opponent, I will not let oil companies write this country's energy plan, or endanger our coastlines, or collect another $4 billion in corporate welfare from our taxpayers.
Barack Obama
Money is not the only answer, but it makes a difference.
Barack Obama
One of the gratifying things, I think, about the end of my presidency even though admittedly my successor ran against a lot of what we stood for, is when you look at the individual issues and the progress that we've made on a lot of those issues, we got the support of a pretty decent majority.
Barack Obama
The degree of polarization that currently exists in Washington is such where I think it's fair to say if I presented a cure for cancer, getting legislation passed to move that forward would be a nail-biter.
Barack Obama
We can give our intelligence and law enforcement community the powers they need to track down and take out terrorists without undermining our commitment to the rule of law, or our basic rights and liberties.
Barack Obama
Every woman should be in control of the decisions that affect her own health.
Barack Obama
I don't believe people should to be able to own guns.
Barack Obama
It is time to leave behind the divisive battles of the past. It is time to move forward as one nation.
Barack Obama
