"You know Ohio, four years ago, you and I began a journey.

I didn't run, and you didn't work your hearts out just to win an election.We came together to reclaim the basic bargain that built the largest middle class and the most prosperous nation on earth.

We came together because we believe that in America, your success shouldn't be determined by the circumstances of your birth. If you're willing to work hard, you should be able to find a good job. If you're willing to meet your responsibilities, you should be able to own a home, maybe start a business, and give your children the chance to do even better --no matter who you are, or where you come from, or what you look like or what your last name is.

We believe the free market is one of the greatest forces for progress in human history. That businesses are the engine of growth. That risk-takers and innovators should be rewarded. But we also believe that at its best the free market has never been a license to take whatever you want, however you can get it; that alongside our entrepreneurial spirit, our rugged individualism, America only prospers when we meet our obligations to one another; and to future generations."
