Obama spoke to the entire nation when he said that. Not just black, brown, white, native, gay straight, woman or man. He was speaking for us all.
We are far more than not me, us. Bernie's slogan. Unless it is ALL of us, then us is meaningless.
Obama was speaking to all the people.

(83,838 posts)All I care about, all I have fought for, he spoke to me, all of us and for all that I/we hold dear. He was uniting a divided country and spoke for all of us.

(10,530 posts)It is a slogan, not his entire thinking on the subject. At his rallies, in connection with his slogan, he asks people to look at the person to their left, then at the person to their right. (I went to one rally, and I can tell you it was a very diverse crowd.) Then he says, are you willing to fight for those people the same as you'd fight for yourself?
That's what he's spent his career doing, that's what he's asking his supporters to do, and I think we're finally ready to do it.

(83,838 posts)I am familiar with what he says at the rally and the divisiveness he and his top team, Stein voters say and tweet every day. I am very aware and up to date on what he and they all say.
I also know their votes and it sure as hell was not for the Democratic Candidate in the GE.
