Barack Obama: “There are small-business owners who've been able to get the loans they need to hire a few more people.”

I’m going to insist that we can do better than we’re doing right now.

Looking forward to being in Detroit on 10/24 to campaign for Jocelyn Benson, Abdul El-Sayed and Democrats up and down the ballot in Michigan.

I think when we act on that basis, it doesn't always work out, but over time things do get better.

People need to “rediscover what’s the story we tell about how we’re going to live together, and see each other, and recognise each other, and disagree, and yet, still care for each other”.
