Barack Obama: “We passed historic Wall Street reform to end the era of bailouts and too big to fail.”

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.

This idea that any suggestion or criticism that America was anything other than perfect is unpatriotic... is a suggestion that you hate your country.

The success of this experiment was never a given.
