Rede an der Universität Kairo am 4. Juni 2009, Handelsblatt 4. Juni 2009 http://www.handelsblatt.com/politik/international/barack-obama-obamas-grosses-versprechen-seite-3/3191220-3.html
Original engl.: "elections alone do not make true democracy." - s:el:A New Beginning.
Dieser Gedanke war allerdings weder neu, noch war Obama sein Urheber; vielmehr war er schon seit Jahrzehnten Gemeingut. So hatte man im SPIEGEL vom 19. März 1984 http://www.spiegel.de/spiegel/print/d-13509577.html gelesen: "Aber Wahlen allein schaffen doch noch keine Demokratie", in einem Beitrag des Labourabgeordneten Bryan Gold zu der Debatte des britischen Unterhauses vom 25. März 1977 https://www.theyworkforyou.com/debates/?id=1977-03-25a.1698.0: "elections alone do not guarantee democracy [...] direct elections alone cannot be equated with democracy", und in einer britischen Publikation Our Times (vol. 4, p. 164) unter dem Datum February 13-17, 1939 als Überschrift: " Elections Alone Do Not Make Democracies https://books.google.de/books?id=nPscAQAAMAAJ&q=democracies"".

„Eine gewaltlose Bewegung hätte Hitlers Armeen nicht aufhalten können. Verhandlungen können die Anführer der Al Kaida nicht überzeugen, ihre Waffen niederzulegen. Es ist kein Aufruf zum Zynismus, wenn man sagt, dass Gewalt manchmal notwendig sein kann – es ist eine Anerkennung der Geschichte, der Unvollkommenheit des Menschen und der Grenzen der Vernunft.“

Barack Obama

Rede bei der Entgegennahme des Friedensnobelpreises http://blogs.usembassy.gov/amerikadienst/2009/12/10/obama-bei-seiner-auszeichnung-mit-dem-friedensnobelpreis/ am 10. Dezember 2009
"Evil does exist in the world. A non-violent movement could not have halted Hitler's armies. Negotiations cannot convince al Qaeda's leaders to lay down their arms. To say that force may sometimes be necessary is not a call to cynicism – it is a recognition of history; the imperfections of man and the limits of reason." - http://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/peace/laureates/2009/obama-lecture_en.html

Barack Obama: Zitate auf Englisch

“My interest is in making sure we‘ve got the kind of comprehensive energy policy that can bring down gas prices. If, in order to get that passed, we have to compromise in terms of a careful, well-thought out oil strategy that was carefully circumscribed to avoid significant environmental damage. I don't want to be so rigid that we can't get something done.”

“This union may never be perfect, but generation after generation has shown that it can always be perfected. And today, whenever I find myself feeling doubtful or cynical about this possibility, what gives me the most hope is the next generation — the young people whose attitudes and beliefs and openness to change have already made history in this election.”

2008, A More Perfect Union (March 2008)

“These are our kids. This is what they’re thinking about. And so what we should be thinking about is our responsibility to care for them, and shield them from harm, and give them the tools they need to grow up and do everything that they’re capable of doing -- not just to pursue their own dreams, but to help build this country. This is our first task as a society, keeping our children safe. This is how we will be judged. And their voices should compel us to change.”

“And that impulse to make the world better, to push back on those who try to make it worse, that’s something that your generation has to hold on to. And you have to remember, it’s never easy; there are no days off. But if there’s one thing that I know from my own life, it’s that with hard work and with hope, change is always within our reach.”

2013, Eulogy of Nelson Mandela (December 2013)

“We cannot turn against one another by letting this fight be defined as a war between America and Islam. That, too, is what groups like ISIL want. ISIL does not speak for Islam. They are thugs and killers, part of a cult of death, and they account for a tiny fraction of more than a billion Muslims around the world -- including millions of patriotic Muslim Americans who reject their hateful ideology. Moreover, the vast majority of terrorist victims around the world are Muslim. If we’re to succeed in defeating terrorism we must enlist Muslim communities as some of our strongest allies, rather than push them away through suspicion and hate.”

“For decades, this vision stood in sharp contrast to life on the other side of an Iron Curtain. For decades, a contest was waged, and ultimately that contest was won -- not by tanks or missiles, but because our ideals stirred the hearts of Hungarians who sparked a revolution; Poles in their shipyards who stood in Solidarity; Czechs who waged a Velvet Revolution without firing a shot; and East Berliners who marched past the guards and finally tore down that wall. Today, what would have seemed impossible in the trenches of Flanders, the rubble of Berlin, or a dissident’s prison cell -- that reality is taken for granted. A Germany unified. The nations of Central and Eastern Europe welcomed into the family of democracies. Here in this country, once the battleground of Europe, we meet in the hub of a Union that brings together age-old adversaries in peace and cooperation. The people of Europe, hundreds of millions of citizens -- east, west, north, south -- are more secure and more prosperous because we stood together for the ideals we share. And this story of human progress was by no means limited to Europe. Indeed, the ideals that came to define our alliance also inspired movements across the globe among those very people, ironically, who had too often been denied their full rights by Western powers. After the Second World War, people from Africa to India threw off the yoke of colonialism to secure their independence. In the United States, citizens took freedom rides and endured beatings to put an end to segregation and to secure their civil rights. As the Iron Curtain fell here in Europe, the iron fist of apartheid was unclenched, and Nelson Mandela emerged upright, proud, from prison to lead a multiracial democracy. Latin American nations rejected dictatorship and built new democracies, and Asian nations showed that development and democracy could go hand in hand.”

2014, Address to European Youth (March 2014)

“Whenever I travel the world, from Europe to Africa, South America to Southeast Asia, one of the things I most enjoy doing is meeting young men and women like you. It’s more fun than being in a conference room. And it’s also more important -- because you are the young leaders who will determine the future of this country and this region. So I’m going to keep my remarks short at the top, because I want to take as many questions and comments from you.”
