Barack Obama: “I want to thank Speaker Boehner and Senator Reid for their leadership and their dedication during this process.”

It shows me somebody who’s not focused on the American people and the job they’re supposed to do.

The success of this experiment was never a given.

This idea that any suggestion or criticism that America was anything other than perfect is unpatriotic... is a suggestion that you hate your country.

That's what I hope every visitor to this center takes away from their experience.
