Barack Obama: “We will make sure to come back—because this country is extraordinary and its people are wonderful.”

Never talks that way when they are in the same room.

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.

We designed the center not to be some lifeless mausoleum.

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