Barack Obama: “My commitment to you, the American people, is that I will focus every single day on how we can get people back to work.”

That was fantastic. I was a little tall for it.

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.

It shows me somebody who’s not focused on the American people and the job they’re supposed to do.

I think when you understand the complexities of America and the contradictions of America, I don’t think it makes you love it less. I think it makes you love it more.
