You know , we ' ve created 15 million new jobs , brought inflation down from 9 percent to 3 percent , and added 800 , 000 manufacturing jobs . But for me , a job is about more than just a paycheck . It ' s about integrity , dignity , and being able to look your kid in the eye and say everything will be okay . That ' s why I ' m going to keep focusing on the middle class and making sure they thrive , because when they do well , everyone benefits . Yeah , even the wealthy , who are still doing pretty darn well . But hey , it ' s time for them to start paying their fair share . Oh , and guess what? The national Black and Hispanic organizations just endorsed me , along with AARP . They had a meeting down in Atlanta , Georgia . ( Attempts a Southern accent ) Yep , they sure did . I always drive my staff crazy because I question how we can be the greatest nation if we don ' t have top - notch education , invest in research , or have the best healthcare system . The American people understand this too . I want to restore the dignity and respect in our country , and it ' s important for our reputation globally . When I talk about foreign policy , it ' s about protecting us and maintaining our image . It ' s crucial to address issues like Ukraine and border security . So , like , the first bill I ever introduced as President was basically what just got passed , thanks to the conservative Republicans . They ' re getting a bad rap now , but we really just need a more organized process at the border . People coming in aren ' t all bad , they ' re not criminals . And healthcare? Big Pharma is ripping us off , selling insulin for way more than it costs . Other countries pay way less for the same meds . It ' s not fair . And the Affordable Care Act is helping so many people with preexisting conditions . Trump talks about the deficit , but he raised it more than any other president . We need to stick to the ideals of equality and fairness . This guy wants to go in the opposite direction . Just listen to what he ' s saying . While I was in Georgia , working on healthcare and making sure we had the support of all the minority organizations we strongly support , he was hanging out with Viktor Orbán , who thinks democracy is a problem . He was basically agreeing with him! Seriously , that ' s not who we are and we need to make that clear . I ' m going to be working really hard and I ' m actually excited to do more of these smaller events because that ' s how I used to campaign . You ' ve campaigned with me before , remember? ( Laughs ) A few times . But really , it ' s all about talking to people face to face and getting their honest opinions . Anyway , that ' s it .
