Barack Obama: “I can promise you this: We are headed in the right direction.”

And there’s no reason to suggest that we can’t get through this one either.

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.

It fortifies you to say that, yes, this has been part of the journey that we’re on.

While we are non-partisan, we are not value-neutral. We have a point of view.
