Inspirational Words from Barack Obama
“So what has been accomplished here in America is nothing short of remarkable. It’s often been said that America is a country for the future. Well, that future has now arrived. And despite the uncertainties over the last two years, we have stepped onto the world stage as a major financial and economic power.
“We did not arrive at this point by simply chance or good fortune. Our success came because of hard work and the perseverance of the American people, the entrepreneurial spirit of many in this room, and the vision of leaders…”[i]
These were the exciting words of President Barack Obama – a true patriot – a man who believes in American Exceptionalism.
DON’T MISS THIS:
Did he really say all of these nice things about his Country? Are you kidding????? Here’s what he really said:

“You did not arrive at this point by simply chance or good fortune. Your success came because of hard work and the perseverance of the Brazilian people, the entrepreneurial spirit of many in this room, and the vision of leaders…”[i]
But, just to show he’s thinking about us, here’s four quick statements Obama did make about America and Americans.

“…we went off course…”[iv]
“…great country that had gotten a little soft…”[v]
