Barack Obama: “These impressive individuals bring a wealth of knowledge and tremendous dedication to their new roles.”

Every president here today, as different as we are, has tried our best to uphold the values that John McCain and Mitt Romney believed in no less than I did.

America is currently experiencing anger and vision but we are looking for fairness and common sense and mutual respect.

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

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