“Those of us who have the privilege to serve this country have an obligation to do our job as best we can. We come from different parties, but we are Americans first. And that's why disagreement cannot mean dysfunction. It can't degenerate into hatred. The American people's hopes and dreams are what matters, not ours. Our obligations are to them. Our regard for them compels us all, Democrats and Republicans, to cooperate, and compromise, and act in the best interests of our nation - one nation, under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.” PeopleFirstsMeanDifferentCountryMatterDreamJobsNationsInterestJusticePartyLibertyRepublicanHatredRegardDemocratPrivilegeObligationCompromiseWhat MattersDisagreementDegeneratesHopes And DreamsIndivisibleDysfunctionLiberty And JusticeJustice For AllOne Nation Under GodLiberty And Justice For All Author:Barack Obama
“To the American people of 1789, their nation promised a new way of life: each individual a free man; each having the right to seek his own happiness; a republican form of government in which the people would be sovereign; and no arbitrary power over people's lives.

“The reality is that the Republicans twice had Mitt Romney as a potential nominee. They chose him in 2008 - 2012. In 2008 and 2012, he had been the most get tough on illegal immigrants, on undocumented immigrants, illegals, as he called them, accused John McCain of wanting to give them Social Security checks, accused Mike Huckabee selling out to them with the DREAM Act in Arkansas, was really the most strident.” GivingDreamRealitySocialSecurityRepublicanToughChecksSellingImmigrantsIllegalSocial SecurityAccusedMikeRomneyMccainIllegal ImmigrantsArkansasSelling OutUndocumented ImmigrantsDream Act Author:Mark Shields
“The American people are a non-ideological people. They very much are looking for common-sense, practical solutions to the problems that they face. Oftentimes they've got contradictory senses of various issues and policy positions and I don't think that either the Republican Party or the Democratic Party necessarily capture their deepest dreams when those parties are described in caricature or in policy terms.” PeopleThinkingProblemDreamFacesTermPartyCommonIssuesPolicyPositionRepublicanSolutionsDemocraticVariousSensesPracticalsCommon SenseCaptureRepublican PartyContradictoryDemocratic PartyIdeologicalCaricatures Author:Barack Obama
“The media tries to destroy Republicans who make little faux pas and they start telling everybody how dumb and stupid or uncaring they are. They're so self-absorbed, so selfish and so forth. With Obama, it's always, "There's nothing to see here, because he's a dream of a guy to begin with" and all that. "He missed the Gulf of Mexico? So what! He thinks there are 57 states? Big deal! At least he's trying; at least he cares," is the way it goes.” ThinkingWayTryingLittlesSelfStatesDreamBigsCareGuyDealsMediaStupidRepublicanSelfishDumbMexicoBig DealSelf AbsorbedUncaringFauxGulf Of MexicoFaux Pas Author:Rush Limbaugh
