We need earmark reform, and when Im President, I will go line by line to make sure that we are not spending money unwisely. – Barack Obama
What I think is fair to say is that, coming out of the Republican camp, there have been efforts to suggest that perhaps Im not who I say I am when it comes to my faith – something which I find deeply offensive, and that has been going on for a pretty long time. – Barack Obama
We need to steer clear of this poverty of ambition, where people want to drive fancy cars and wear nice clothes and live in nice apartments but dont want to work hard to accomplish these things. Everyone should try to realize their full potential. – Barack Obama
Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a certain poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. Because its only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you realize your true potential. – Barack Obama
