That is who Barack Obama is - a person of admirable character - and that is who he has remained for me over these last four years. I have not agreed with his every decision, but never once have I seen him break his cool, lose his composure, or abandon his insightful perspective - even during the most serious and/or absurd national disasters.

I voted for Barack Obama.

Barack Obama is an economic patriot.

The prospect of Barack Obama being elected as US President is a source of hope not only for Americans, but also for Europeans and Africans. According to the Pew Global Attitudes survey, which is conducted in 24 countries across the globe, people in Europe and Africa are looking forward to the Democrat nominee winning the presidential contest.

I knew Barack Obama, absolutely. And I knew him probably as well as thousands of other Chicagoans.

Barack Obama is betting on the American worker.
