Unlike any other leader in modern American history we are led today by a president that has decided to pit Americans against each other.

After all when the world looks to America they look to us because we are the most successful political and economic experiment in human history.

We wonder if we will be the first generation in American history to leave our children with fewer opportunities and a less prosperous nation than the one we inherited.

Black history is American history.

Throughout human history the American Idea has done more to help the poor than any other economic system ever designed.

In every election in American history both parties have their cliches. The party that has the cliches that ring true wins.

I sent American troops to Iraq to make its people free not to make them American. Iraqis will write their own history and find their own way.

Without question the Red Ryder BB gun is the most important gun in the history of American weaponry.

The only history is a mere question of one's struggle inside oneself. But that is the joy of it. One need neither discover Americas nor conquer nations and yet one has as great a work as Columbus or Alexander to do.

Americans are rising to the tasks of history and they expect the same of us.
