Profession: Politician Lawyer Attorney at law Writer Professor Executive Author Quotations: Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.; There is not a liberal America and a conservative America - there is the United States of America. There is not a black America and a white America and latino America and asian America - there's the United States of America.; I don't oppose all wars. What I am opposed to is a dumb war. What I am opposed to is a rash war.; If you're walking down the right path and you're willing to keep walking, eventually you'll make progress.; My job is not to represent Washington to you, but to represent you to Washington.; Issues are never simple. One thing I'm proud of is that very rarely will you hear me simplify the issues.; My parents shared not only an improbable love, they shared an abiding faith in the possibilities of this nation. They would give me an African name, Barack, or blessed, believing that in a tolerant America your name is no barrier to success.; Today we are engaged in a deadly global struggle for those who would intimidate, torture, and murder people for exercising the most basic freedoms. If we are to win this struggle and spread those freedoms, we must keep our own moral compass pointed in a true direction.; Democracy demands that the religiously motivated translate their concerns into universal, rather than religion-specific, values.;
