Barack Obama: “We have spent ten years since September 11, 2001, breaking down the walls between intelligence, military, and law…”

We don’t have any folks who grill here?

We’ve now fought a war, spent billions and billions of dollars, you know, put enormous strain on our military. A lot of people have died. And it feels like we’re back where we were before we started the war, except maybe a little bit worse…

I hope this center will serve as an affirmation of just how special, how precious our democracy truly is.

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.
