Barack ObamaWe remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year
Barack ObamaRather than pointing fingers or assigning blame, letโs use this occasion to expand our moral imaginations, to listen to each other more carefully, to sharpen our instincts for empathy and remind ourselves of all the ways that our hopes and dreams are bound together.
Barack ObamaWe're going to have to come together and take meaningful action to prevent more tragedies like this, regardless of the politics.
Barack Obama
