Barack Obama Quotes

Those kids aren’t going to college Picture Quote #1

I think that Canada is one of the most impressive countries in the world, the way it has managed a diverse population, a migrant economy. The natural beauty of Canada is extraordinary. Obviously there is enormous kinship between the United States and Canada, and the ties that bind our two countries together are things that are very important to us Picture Quote #1

What makes us exceptional, what makes us America is our allegiance to an idea articulated in a declaration made more than two centuries ago.

What is the empathy deficit? The inability of people to stand in other folks shoes. It’s hard to empathize with people who have different values than you Picture Quote #1

I think the Prime Minister is the first to acknowledge that Malaysia’s still got some work to do. Just like the United States, by the way, has some work to do on these issues. Human Rights Watch probably has a list of things they think we should be doing as a government Picture Quote #1

These people are a part of me. And they are a part of America, this country that I love Picture Quote #1

But race is an issue that I believe this nation cannot afford to ignore right now. We would be making the same mistake that Reverend Wright made in his offending sermons about America - to simplify and stereotype and amplify the negative to the point that it distorts reality Picture Quote #1
