More quotes by Barack Obama
Each of us deserves the freedom to pursue our own version of happiness. No one deserves to be bullied.
Barack Obama
When George Bush came into office, we had surpluses. And now we have half-a-trillion-dollar deficit annually. When George Bush came into office, our national debt was around $5 trillion. It's now over $10 trillion. We've almost doubled it.
Barack Obama
I will veto any effort to get rid of those automatic spending cuts to domestic and defense spending. There will be no easy off ramps on this one.
Barack Obama
And I will do everything that I can as long as I am President of the United States to remind the American people that we are one nation under God, and we may call that God different names but we remain one nation.
Barack Obama
Health care costs generally have gone up at a significantly slower rate since ObamaCare was passed than they did before, which has saved the federal Treasury hundreds of billions of dollars.
Barack Obama
We know what happens when Europeans start dividing themselves up and emphasizing their differences and seeing a competition between various countries in a zero sum way.
Barack Obama
America is a strong and resilient country. And I know we will succeed, if we put aside partisanship and politics and work together as one nation.
Barack Obama
Immigration is part of the reason why our economy is stronger and better positioned than most of our other competitors, is because we've got a younger population that's more dynamic when it comes to trade.
Barack Obama
And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to the suffering outside our borders nor can we consume the world's resources without regard to effect. For the world has changed, and we must change with it.
Barack Obama
There's no way to resolve Syria without Iran being involved, given its financing of Assad and the fact that Hezbollah is probably the most effective fighting force that Assad can count on.
Barack Obama
It is easy to get to a higher number when you are not asking anything difficult from yourself.
Barack Obama
After all, there were thousands of so-called campus radicals, most of them white and tenured and happily tolerated. No, it remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.
Barack Obama
To sustain a governing majority, that requires an ability for Republicans and Democrats to find some common ground. And right now, the structure of the system is such where it makes it really hard for people to work together.
Barack Obama
I will begin to remove our troops from Iraq immediately.
Barack Obama
Come on! I just answered, like, eight questions.
Barack Obama
The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. Don’t wait for good things to happen to you. If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope.
Barack Obama
It's no wonder that America's engagement in the region has strong, sustained, bipartisan support. So I'll be handing my successor a strong foundation - including closer ties with Singapore - on which to continue building, and I'm optimistic that will happen.
Barack Obama
Cynicism is a sorry kind of wisdom.
Barack Obama
I believe when women succeed America succeeds!
Barack Obama
I will never turn Medicare into a voucher. No American should ever have to spend their golden years at the mercy of insurance companies. They should retire with the care and dignity they have earned.
Barack Obama
