Barack Obama: “These are values that have guided our Nation since its founding.”

At least one of our major parties has been captured by politics that is not that subtle about suggesting that ‘We the people’ means a certain kind of people.

I obviously have a room in his head.

People aren't looking for perpetual anger and division. They are looking for fairness and common sense and mutual respect, that deep in our gut, we want to find a way to turn towards each other again, not further away.

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