It is vital that the United States take the right action to ensure that companies like GM and Chrysler can compete fairly around the world.

Do you believe that we're on our own, all of us, or do you believe we're in it together?

I'm betting you're not going to lose heart.

I want to take half the money that we're no longer spending on war and use it to drive down our deficits.

Government can't do everything, but there are some things we have to do to grow the economy.

Because I want to make sure that the next generation, not just my kids, but everybody, has that same chance.

Today you raised your hand and have taken an oath of citizenship.

America will always remember.

And that includes making sure the American Dream endures for all those—like these men and women—who are willing to work hard, play by the rules, and meet their responsibilities.

Becoming a citizen is another step in the right direction for my family.

Immigration makes America stronger, immigration makes us more prosperous, and immigration positions America to lead in the 21st century.

We will always be there for you, just as you've been there for us.

You are all one of the reasons that America is exceptional.

We still need a 'DREAM Act' to keep talented young people who want to contribute to our society and serve our country.

People who can afford to buy health insurance should take responsibility to do so.

They are heroes who deserve the appreciation of a grateful nation.

The crew of this flight, along with their families and loved ones, are in our thoughts and prayers.

I know Americans across the country share my concern for the well-being of the surviving members of the crew and my deep condolences to the families of those who lost their lives.

It's important that we appreciate what they do.

I have directed FEMA to ensure they continue to provide necessary support to state and local officials in impacted areas as they respond to these events.

Only they provide the courage and the discipline to be able to actually fight these fires.

This is a good reminder of what makes us Americans.

I thought it was a good opportunity for us to actually focus attention on a problem.

I declared an emergency exists in the State of West Virginia and ordered federal aid to supplement state and local response efforts as the state continues to respond to the storm.

We don't just look out for ourselves, we look out for each other.
