Office of the Press Secretary, October 21, 2010:
Remarks by the President to Overflow Crowd at University of Washington
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you, Huskies! It is great to see all of you. Look, I'm not going to give a long speech now because then you’ll be listening to two long speeches. I just wanted to -- the main reason I wanted to come out, because I thought it would be cool to run through the tunnel. (Laughter.) I liked doing that.
But I also wanted to come out and just say thank you to all of you, because there are a lot of you who worked on our campaign, there are a lot of you who voted, some for the very first time, because you realized that we're at a crossroads in history right now. America is the greatest country on Earth, but we didn’t get here because it was preordained. We got here because our parents and our grandparents and our great grandparents, they were all willing to roll up their sleeves and work -- to work on behalf of freedom, to work on behalf of opportunity.....
And over the last two years, as difficult as things have been, as big as the problems that we inherited were, I have been so inspired because I've had the opportunity to work with people like Patty Murray -- (applause) -- to make sure that every American has decent health care; to make sure that an economy that was shrinking is growing again; to start putting people back to work; to make sure we've got equal pay for equal work; to make sure that we've got a couple of wonderful women on the Supreme Court; -- (applause) -- to make sure that young people can afford a college education; -- (applause) -- to make sure that we brought back 100,000 troops from Iraq; -- (applause) -- to make sure that we're respected around the world once again; to start investing in research and development so that our economy can thrive; to make sure that we're investing in clean energy -- (applause) -- so that we're at the forefront not only of growing our economy but of saving the planet.
And I've been inspired by you because, wherever I go, traveling across this country, especially when I meet young people, I am reminded of your energy and your drive and your imagination. And for all the problems we're going through right now, we still have the best workers on Earth, we've got the finest universities on Earth, we've got the best entrepreneurs on Earth. We've got the freest, most vibrant economy on Earth --
AUDIENCE MEMBER: -- best President on Earth!
THE PRESIDENT: Well, I won't say that -- (applause) -- but we've got a pretty good President. (Applause.) ....
