Julian Castro: History Has Shown Obama Has Been Right, His Critics Wrong

‘President Obama has reinvigorated the American Dream for current and future generations’

“You know, it is also true that along the way our president has had some nay sayers, but I think that history has shown that he's been right and they've been off base. (Applause) In fact, you may remember, a couple of years ago, in 2012, his opponents claimed that they can get the unemployment rate to 6 percent by 2016. The thing is, President Obama got it lower than that two years earlier! (Applause) They blamed him for a high gas prices but I just saw the gas is at $1.99 a gallon. Thank you, Mr. President. To put it simply, President Barack Obama is reinvigorating the American dream for current and future generations. And he's not done.  In just a minute he's going to come up and talk to you about how we can continue this progress and my question to you, Phoenix, is: Are you ready to continue that progress?"
