Text Quotes
Listen, we’ve got one little ol’ black president, and white folks are upset, but they’ve had 43.  (President Quotes) With a black president, I can relax... I can dance in public... I can buy a whole watermelon now.  (President Quotes) Even the notion that, you know,[Bill] Clinton was the black president strikes me as the greatest irony of all times.  (President Quotes) There’s no doubt that there’s some folks who just really dislike me because they don’t like the idea of a black president.  (President Quotes) Donald Trump first gained political prominence leading the charge for the so-called birthers. He promoted the racist lie that President Obama is not really an American citizen, part of a sustained effort to delegitimize America’s first black president.  (President Quotes) Fox News reported Thursday that Bill Clinton can’t get into any of New York’s better golf and country clubs. Not one member has been willing to sponsor him. So it’s official, he really is America’s first black president.  (President Quotes) Whites who otherwise were able to tolerate a black president, Obama, because on certain issues he appealed to them on substance, Trump was able to reach down into some of those same people and pull out this racism inside them.  (President Quotes) I think that having a black president in this country has been a seismic shift, in terms of what has been going on racially in America. I think that America is now engaging with how we have come to this point.  (President Quotes) It’s an important moment. I just feel like I want it to happen tonight, either for myself or Viola [Davis] so we can get past it, so it’s not big news anymore. I mean, it is 2015. We have a black president.  (President Quotes) You’ve got the Wall Street situation, the sub-prime situation. You’ve got a black president. We’ve got wars. We’ve got unemployment. But the music doesn’t reflect that. And I challenge anybody to show me a music that’s on the radio that reflects that.  (President Quotes) The fact that women have been moving forward, that a woman was running for president, that we had a black president - I think there was, without a doubt, a whitelash and a complete backlash against the liberation of women, against the power of people of color.  (President Quotes) I wonder what it’s like to be from a state that is spread across a few islands way out in the Pacific Ocean, only added to the United States in 1959. Not only that but to be the birthplace of America’s first black president? Pretty cool, I bet.  (President Quotes) White folks are the luckiest people: Finally a black president and he’s a behaved one. Went to the best schools, best colleges, never raises his voice. I ran for president in 1968. I tell (audiences) if I won, I would have dug up the Rose Garden and planted watermelon!  (President Quotes) [Donald] Trump, for five years, you perpetuated a false claim that the nation’s first black president was not a natural-born citizen. You questioned his legitimacy.In the last couple of weeks, you acknowledged what most Americans have accepted for years: The president was born in the United States.  (President Quotes) We do have a black president, and that means a lot. People ask, ‘What has he done?’ What he’s done is change the color up, which you see on the screen. When the head of the free world is black, there’s got to be some sort of spin-off from it.  (President Quotes) Obama sees himself as such a huge change that he can be cautious about other societal changes. But what he doesn’t realize is that legalizing gay marriage is like electing a black president. Before you do it, it seems inconceivable. Once it’s done, you can’t remember what all the fuss was about.  (President Quotes) Really, an historic night last night. You may have heard, Barack Obama will be the first black president of the United States of America. ... Obama is also the first Democrat to receive more than 50 percent of the vote since Jimmy Carter, the first senator to be elected since Jack Kennedy, the first Muslim to be ... I said too much.  (President Quotes) New Rule: The rest of the world can go back to being completely jealous of America. Our majority white country just freely elected a black president, something no other democracy has ever done. Take that Canada! Where’s your nubian warrior president? Your head of state is a boring white dude named Steven Harper, and mine is a kick-ass black ninja named Barack Hussein Obama!  (President Quotes) I had great admiration for the election of President Obama. I believe that the U.S. at that moment showed tremendous capacity to show that it is a great nation, and it surprised the world. It may be very difficult to be able to elect a black president in the U.S. - as it was very difficult to elect a woman president in Brazil.  (President Quotes) There is no doubt that the second President Bush inherited a very serious terrorist threat, though not such a threat as had been represented by the totalitarian Great Powers, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union.  (President Quotes) All the other members of the U.N. were admitted, at the outset or subsequently, but Israel was created by the U.N. as a Jewish state, on the motion of Stalin’s ambassador, seconded by President Truman’s.  (President Quotes) President [Barack] Obama has been an unbelievable divider of this country, whether it’s rich and poor; white and black.  (President Quotes) Barack H. Obama is a landmark presidential figure as the first black, multiracial, multicultural president from Hawaii and the Pacific.  (President Quotes) The exceptionalism of a black U.S. President is not important to me. It’s what he does - and who he has at the table.  (President Quotes) It’s a new world that’s very, very difficult to make sense of. But we have a new hope. We have a new man. America has now elected its first openly black President.  (President Quotes) Did Rahm Emmanuel serve President Barack] Obama or did he serve himself as he prepared to run for Mayor of Chicago? I don’t use the term black-on-black violence, since I’ve never heard the term white-on-white violence.  (President Quotes) A state of war is not a blank check for the president when it comes to the rights of the nation’s citizens.  (President Quotes) As Justice Sandra Day O’Connor stated, even a state of war is not a blank check for a president to do whatever he wants.  (President Quotes) President Obama , I guess, is starting to confess to some of his anxieties. In a recent interview, President Obama said, ‘I miss being anonymous.’ He said, ‘In the old days, I could blend in with all the other Hawaiian Barack Hussein Obamas.’  (President Quotes) Again and again, I’ve seen Bush turn a blind eye as his henchmen have leveled zealous attacks against his political enemies - assaults which the president himself has sometimes directly encouraged.  (President Quotes)
