Barack Obama
I confess to wincing every so often at a poorly chosen word, a mangled sentence, an expression of emotion that seems indulgent or overly practiced. I have the urge to cut the book by fifty pages or so, possessed as I am with a keener appreciation for brevity.
Barack Obama
Iran's Supreme Court has issued a fatwa against the development of nuclear weapons. President [Hassan] Rouhani has indicated Iran will never develop nuclear weapons. I've made clear that we respect the right of the Iranian people to access peaceful nuclear energy in the context of Iran meeting its obligations.

One thing I think we have to do is to make sure that the undocumented workers who are living in America today, that they have to take responsibility.

Barack Obama
For decades, we've been told that it doesn't make economic sense to switch to renewable energy. Today, that's no longer true.
