President Obama on what America is supposed to be.

"Obviously yesterday we made some news," Obama said to applause. "But the truth is it was a logical extension of what America is supposed to be. It grew directly out of this difference in visions. Are we a country that includes everybody and gives everybody a shot and treats everybody fairly and is that going to make us stronger? Are we welcoming to immigrants? Are we welcoming to people who aren't like us — does that make us stronger? I believe it does. So that's what's at stake."
