Barack Obama

We have to make sure all our kids are equipped for the jobs of the future

What makes America truly remarkable is not the strength of our arms or our economy, but rather our founding values.

As families and residents pull together in the wake of this awful tragedy, they will have the unwavering support of the American people.

The introduction, establishment, and spread of invasive species create the potential for serious public health impacts.

This report is intended to explain the domestic and international bases for the United States' ongoing use of military force overseas.

U.S. Armed Forces, including special operations forces, have conducted counterterrorism combat operations in Afghanistan against al-Qa'ida, the Taliban, and associated forces.

It is the policy of the United States to prevent the introduction, establishment, and spread of invasive species.

Invasive species pose threats to prosperity, security, and quality of life.

I hope to enhance the public's understanding of the legal and policy principles that have guided U.S. national security operations.

Today our prayers go out to the people of Oakland, California, in the aftermath of this weekend's deadly warehouse fire.

The United States remains in an armed conflict, including against the Taliban, and active hostilities remain ongoing.

The Force Management Level for U.S. Armed Forces in Afghanistan currently is 9,800.

I will direct additional measures to protect U.S. citizens and interests.

The United States has deployed combat-equipped forces to a number of locations in the U.S. Central, Pacific, European, Southern, and Africa Command areas of operation.

Decisions regarding war and peace are among the most important any President faces.

The arts are always central to American life.

We are all better off for it.

As President Kennedy once said, 'In serving his vision of the truth, the artist best serves his nation.'

Having an effective partner in the United Nations Secretary-General will be critically important.

We believe, to make sure that the U.N. operates efficiently, that money is well spent.

I have great confidence that our soon-to-be Secretary-General will be able to be an extraordinarily effective leader of that organization.

I hereby reserve my authority to issue further orders with respect to the Purchasers, Aixtron, or Aixtron US as shall in my judgment be necessary to protect the national security.

I am confident that if we implement the Commission's recommendations, our economy, critical infrastructure, and national security will be better equipped to thrive in the coming years.

There is credible evidence that leads me to believe that...might take action that threatens to impair the national security of the United States.

I hereby order that the proposed acquisition of Aixtron US by the Purchasers is hereby prohibited.
