Values!

Back when Roosevelt was President he believed in patriotism by saying, "It matters little about me but it matters about the cause we fight for." [Section 5] By this Roosevelt is saying how he isn't what everyone should care about, its their country that everyone should be concerned and care for. As for Obama he has similar views as Roosevelt, as for patriotism. Obama seems to care for his country as well, and he believes that a main focus should be the U.S. and its values. "Obama has a keen understanding and deep appreciation of our nation’s core values and guiding principles. Obama will be a fierce defender of the fundamental American values of freedom and equality under law." http://www.ontheissues.org/2008/Barack_Obama_Civil_Rights.htm
