Your support is crucial…I’m about to go speak to the crowd here in Chicago, but I wanted to thank you first.

I will spend the rest of my presidency honoring your support, and doing what I can to finish what we started.

Today is the clearest proof yet that, against the odds, ordinary Americans can overcome powerful interests.
There’s a lot more work to do.
But for right now: Thank you.
Barack
