Barack Obama Quotes, Men Quotes, Office Quotes

It was built by working men and women who dug into what little savings they had to give $5 and $10 and $20 to the cause.

Fellow countrymen: At this second appearing to take the oath of the Presidential office, there is less occasion for an extended address than there was at the first...The progress of our arms, upon which all else chiefly depends, is as well known to the public as to myself; and it is, I trust, reasonably satisfactory and encouraging to all.
