Barack Obama: “We need pragmatic and responsible action that advances our common prosperity.”

While we are non-partisan, we are not value-neutral. We have a point of view.

America is currently experiencing anger and vision but we are looking for fairness and common sense and mutual respect.

And there’s no reason to suggest that we can’t get through this one either.

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.
