Barack Obama: “What binds this nation together is not the colors of our skin or the tenets of our faith or the origins of our names.”

When we choose, when we make that decision, I do believe – and there is evidence for this – that the world gets incrementally better, and that is a worthy goal and it’s worth fighting for.

This race is going to be close. It could determine which party controls the Senate and whether Ohioans can count on the people in Washington to be fighting for you.

Please join me in supporting Sherrod Brown. He’ll always fight for Ohio.

If I had a blame pie for why politics is so polarised and why we're seeing a rise of populism in many places, it's because of that information that is going into our brains every day.
