Quote by Barack Obama
If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help

If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help… Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If youve got a business – you didnt build that. Somebody else made that happen. – Barack Obama
