Barack Obama: “Nobody should be barred from insurance because of preexisting conditions.”

Now the ball’s in your court, Iowa.

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.

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.

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