I am confident she will serve the District of Columbia with integrity and a steadfast commitment to justice.
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.
I reaffirmed my support to help in any ways that we can, including reaffirming America's support for the deal between the EU and Turkey.
The United States is committed to assisting the Greek people and government by supporting efforts to place the Greek economy on a path to sustainability and renewed prosperity.
The interests of all Cypriots would be advanced with a bizonal, bicommunal federation.
The crisis is not an abstraction, but has had a very concrete and devastating impact on the lives and livelihoods of millions of people across this country.
As long-time NATO allies, the United States and Greece remain committed to enhancing regional security and bolstering defense cooperation.
It is incredibly important that the Greek people see improvements in their daily lives so that they can carry with them the hope that their lives will get better.
I am pleased to nominate Judge Rainey Ransom Brandt to serve on the Superior Court of the District of Columbia.
When you're a candidate and you say something that is inaccurate or controversial, it has less impact than it does when you're president of the United States.
I think what will happen with the president-elect is there are going to be certain elements of his temperament that will not serve him well unless he recognizes them and corrects them.
I don't think he is ideological. I think ultimately he's pragmatic in that way.
This office has a way of waking you up and those aspects of his positions or predispositions that don't match up with the reality, he will find shaken up pretty quick.
The people have spoken. Donald Trump will be the next president, the 45th president of the United States.
Reality often has a way of changing once you're inside the Oval Office.
Look, campaigning is one thing, governing is a totally different thing.
Do I have concerns? Absolutely. Of course I've got concerns. You know, he and I differ on a whole bunch of issues.
I think that connection that he was able to make with his supporters, that was impervious to events that might have sunk another candidate. That's powerful stuff.
The United States values and depends upon its relationship and collaboration with Mexico.
It is profoundly in the national security interest of the United States to continue to meet our commitments under the JCPOA as long as Iran continues to meet its commitments.
The bill, if enacted, would contravene U.S. commitments in the JCPOA and interfere with its successful implementation.
I think it's important to give him the room and the space to do that.
We are indisputably in a stronger position today than we were when I came in 8 years ago.
