Good morning. Scripture tells us, "Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you…write them on the tablet of your heart." Secretary Carter, Chairman Dunford, outstanding members of our Armed Forces, and most of all, survivors of that September day and the families of those we lost – it is a great honor, once again, to be with you on this day, a day that I kno...
President Obama: To begin with, I just want to say thank you to the outstanding officials behind me who have been on the ground, working 24/7 since this flood happened. It begins with outstanding leadership from the top – with Governor John Bel Edwards. And we very much appreciate all the outstanding work he's done. His better half, the First Lady of Louisiana, I know ha...
Hi, everybody. This weekend, we'll dedicate the newest American icon on our National Mall – the National Museum of African American History and Culture. It's a beautiful building, five stories high and some 70 feet below the ground, situated just across the street from the Washington Monument. And this museum tells a story of America that hasn't always taken a fr...
Hi, everybody. On behalf of the Obama family – Michelle, Malia, Sasha, Grandma, Bo, and Sunny – I want to wish you a very happy Thanksgiving. Like so many of you, we'll spend the day with friends and family, turkey and touchdowns. We'll give thanks for each other, and for all that God has given us. And we'll reflect on what truly binds us as Americans. That's...
Thank you so much, everybody. Thank you. Thank you very much. Everybody please have a seat. Thank you. Well, good evening, everybody. On behalf of Michelle and myself, welcome to the White House. Over the past eight years, this has always been one of our favorite nights. And this year, I was especially looking forward to seeing how Joe Walsh cleans up – pretty good. I want t...
President Obama: Thank you so much, everybody. Please have a seat. Have a seat. For generations, Presidents have faithfully executed two great American traditions: issuing a proclamation that sets aside a Thursday in November for us to express gratitude, and granting pardons that reflect our beliefs in second chances. And this week, we do both. Of course, Thanksgiving is a f...
Hi, everybody. I'm going to be honest with you – one of the best parts of being President is having your own really nice plane. And I'm going to miss it. A lot. Because up until I ran for this office, I was mostly flying coach. So I know what a pain the whole process can be – from searching for the best prices to that feeling you get when the baggage carousel stops a...
Hi, everybody. This weekend, as we search for ways to bridge our differences, we look to the principles that are more enduring than politics. And some of the best examples are found in the men and women we saluted yesterday, and every day – our troops and veterans. It is the example of young Americans – our 9/11 Generation – who, as first responders ran into smoldering tower...
Thank you so much! Thank you. Thank you so much, everybody. Thank you. Everybody, please have a seat. Have a seat. Well, thank you so much. Good afternoon, everybody. I was just told that was going to be the last "Hail to the Chief" on the road, and it got me kind of sentimental. I want to first and foremost say thanks to all of you. Just before I came here, I was ...
Hi, everybody. Eight years ago, we were in the early stages of what would become the worst economic crisis of our lifetimes. It was a scary time. We didn't even know where the bottom would be. But thanks to your hard work and your determination, and some smart decisions we made, today's a different story. We turned a recession into a record streak of job growth, crea...
President Obama: Hello, everybody! Welcome to the White House, and give it up for the World Champion, Cleveland Cavaliers! That's right, I said "World Champion" and "Cleveland" in the same sentence. That's what we're talking about when we talk about hope and change. We've got a lot of big Cavs fans here in the House –– including Ohio's...
Thank you very much. Please – thank you. Thank you. Please – thank you. Secretary McDonald, Mr. Hallinan, distinguished guests and, most of all, our extraordinary veterans and your families: The last time I stood on these hallowed grounds, on Memorial Day, our country came together to honor those who have fought and died for our flag. A few days before, our nation observed A...
President Obama: Good afternoon, everybody. Yesterday, before votes were tallied, I shot a video that some of you may have seen in which I said to the American people: Regardless of which side you were on in the election, regardless of whether your candidate won or lost, the sun would come up in the morning. And that is one bit of prognosticating that actually came true. The...
Hi, everybody. On Thursday, I traveled to Pittsburgh for the White House Frontiers Conference, where some of America's leading minds came together to talk about how we can empower our people through science to lead our communities, our country, and our world into tomorrow. Plus, we had some fun. I had a chance to fly a space flight simulator where I docked a capsule on t...
Hi, everybody. On the first day of my administration, I promised to restore science to its rightful place. I told you we would unleash American innovation and technology to tackle the health challenges of our time. Over the last eight years, we've delivered on that promise in many ways, both big and small – including, of course, providing health coverage to 20 million mo...
Hi, everybody. It is the most wonderful time of the year – and not just because it's the holiday season, but because it's also open enrollment season over at HealthCare.gov. I know that was a dad joke. But this weekend, I hope seriously you'll take a moment to do something really important for yourself and your family: make sure you'll have health insurance f...
Happy New Year, everybody. At a time when we turn the page on one year and look ahead to the future, I just want to take a minute to thank you for everything you've done to make America stronger these past eight years. Just eight years ago, as I prepared to take office, our economy teetered on the brink of depression. Nearly 800,000 Americans were losing their jobs each ...
THE PRESIDENT: Hello, Chicago! It's good to be home! Thank you! Thank you, everybody. All right, everybody sit down. We're on live TV here. I've got to move. come on! You can tell that I'm a lame duck because nobody is following instructions. (Laughter.) Everybody have a seat. 你好，芝加哥！回家的感觉真好！非常感谢。谢谢大家。好的大家都坐下吧，我们正在电视直...
This week, I traveled to Chicago to deliver my final farewell address to the nation, following in the tradition of Presidents before me. It was an opportunity to say thank you. Whether we've seen eye-to-eye or rarely agreed at all, my conversations with you, the American people – in living rooms and schools; at farms and on factory floors; at diners and on distant milita...
President Obama: Hello, everybody! Hello, everybody. Welcome to the White House. Michelle and I want to be the first to wish all of you a happy Hanukkah. I figure we've got to be first because we're about 10 days early. We have some very special guests in the house to share some latkes with, so I want to call them out. We are, first of all, honored to be joined by Ra...
