Barack Obama
The Public Record
Barack Obama served as the 44th President of the United States from January 20, 2009, to January 20, 2017. A member of the Democratic Party, he previously represented Illinois in the U.S. Senate from 2005 to 2008 and served in the Illinois State Senate from 1997 to 2004. Obama is known for his signature policies including the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, and his efforts in economic recovery following the 2008 financial crisis. His presidency was marked by significant legislative achievements and a focus on healthcare reform, climate change, and foreign policy initiatives such as the Iran nuclear deal.

Those are the kinds of things that I'll be talking about at the commencement.
I have determined that it is necessary to continue the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13667 with respect to the Central African Republic.
We have slashed the amount of time it takes to fill out, tried to make it much simpler and more user-friendly.
The national emergency declared on May 12, 2014, to deal with that threat must continue in effect beyond May 12, 2016.
First of all, it is absolutely true that there are a lot of folks who still are struggling out there.
We are the only advanced democracy that makes it deliberately difficult for people to vote.
I just want to emphasize the degree to which we are in serious times and this is a really serious job. This is not entertainment. This is not a reality show.
I'm going to take a little extra time to say thank you to Michelle for the remarkable way she does the most important job: being a mom.
Well, this is where we actually had a live view of what was happening.
Say thank you, say I love you, and let's make sure we show that gratitude and appreciation through acts of respect throughout the year.
