Islam is not part of the problem in combating violent extremism - it is an important part of promoting peace.
Barack Obama
As I reflect back on what's worked for me in this [presidential] office it's been that I've gotten people who maybe didn't believe in the process to get engaged. Ironically, I've even gotten the other side that maybe didn't believe in the process to get engaged.
Barack Obama
No development strategy can be based only upon what comes out of the ground, nor can it be sustained while young people are out of work.
