We can choose hope over fear and unity over division, the promise of change over the power of the status quo.
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.
He's spending these last weeks calling me every name in the book, because that's how you play the game in Washington. If you can't beat your opponent's ideas, you distort those ideas and maybe make some up.
The last thing we can afford is four more years where no one in Washington is watching anyone on Wall Street, because politicians and the lobbyists killed common sense regulations.
We cannot let up for one day or one minute or one second in this last week.
The American people don't want to hear politicians attack each other - you want to hear about how we're going to attack the challenges facing middle class families each and every day.
We need to make an investment in rebuilding America's infrastructure.
Every state has sent its sons and daughters to serve and die for this country.
