'You'll tolerate that support'
If you disrespect women before you were president, you will disrespect women when you’re in office. If you accept the support of a Klan sympathizer, the Klan, and hesitate when asked about that support, then you’ll tolerate that support when you’re in office.
– Barack Obama
2. Obama recalls historic suppression of black vote
The president told voters that “there are more one-stop vote sites in North Carolina than ever before,” but noted that Republican-controlled election boards had attempted to restrict voting.
'What's our excuse?'
It was not that long ago that people had to guess the number of jellybeans in a jar, or count the bubbles on a bar of soap, or recite the Constitution in Chinese, in order to vote… and we’re not going to vote? What’s our excuse?
– Barack Obama
