"content": "\u003cp>Donald Trump talked a lot about building a wall between the U.S. and Mexico when he was a candidate. Now that he is president, it's unclear just what that wall is going to look like and when it might get built.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What we know so far is that it's likely to be a fence, not a wall, it won't extend the length of the border and it will be very unpopular with its southern neighbor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the moment, about a third of the 2,000-mile border with Mexico is fenced. Some parts are 10 feet tall, some are 20 feet, some are wire mesh, some are steel beams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The oldest kind of fencing is made of landing mat material from the Vietnam War — it's the \"primary fence, which is a vehicle barrier\" so vehicles won't easily be able to drive from Mexico into the U.S., says James Nielsen, a Border Patrol agent in the San Diego sector.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Border enforcement officials have been telling Trump's transition team that a fence alone is not enough. You also need agents, camera towers, stadium lights and sensors. If the president insists on a \"great wall\" to deliver on his campaign promise, Customs and Border Protection has identified 400 miles where the fence can be extended or reinforced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/511165471/511165472\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there are clearly sections where it remains impractical. For instance, the border fence stops at a gnarly mountain range at Otay Mesa about 15 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. The view from here is open country — no dividing line, no nothing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At the time that this fence was built, it was too expensive to continue,\" says Border Patrol spokesman Joshua Devack. The mountains are a natural barrier that, he says, \"a lot of crossers choose not to climb. ... They prefer to have access to roads and civilization.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to an \u003ca href=\"http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d09244r.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">eight-year-old estimate by the Government Accountability Office\u003c/a>, the border fence cost the government $3 million to $4 million a mile to build. Estimates for additional fencing — in harsher terrain — could surpass $10 million a mile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"This is going to divide us more\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump still says he will give the bill to Mexico. Earlier this month, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto restated that his country \"of course\" will not pay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The existing wall and talk of more wall remains unpopular with Mexicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Border Patrol agents are being interviewed, a 15-year-old Mexican girl named Carla Martinez watches from a park on the Tijuana side.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are against it,\" she says into a microphone thrust through a narrow space between the thick iron posts. \"We won't pay for it. It's bad because it's racist. There has to be a border between different countries, but this is just going to divide us more.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mexico has not made the fence-building easy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the mid-2000s, Sundt Construction erected about 100 miles of fence in the remote west desert. Company President Mike Hoover says the U.S. government told his construction crews not to set foot across the international divide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11283812\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/burnett-border-fence-8-edit_wide-0ab30a1c6b4b4e675323e4af4bb45979310ee096-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Border Patrol agent James Nielsen stands near the original landing-mat border fence near Chula Vista.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11283812\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/burnett-border-fence-8-edit_wide-0ab30a1c6b4b4e675323e4af4bb45979310ee096-800x450.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/burnett-border-fence-8-edit_wide-0ab30a1c6b4b4e675323e4af4bb45979310ee096-160x90.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/burnett-border-fence-8-edit_wide-0ab30a1c6b4b4e675323e4af4bb45979310ee096-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/burnett-border-fence-8-edit_wide-0ab30a1c6b4b4e675323e4af4bb45979310ee096-1920x1080.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/burnett-border-fence-8-edit_wide-0ab30a1c6b4b4e675323e4af4bb45979310ee096-1180x664.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/burnett-border-fence-8-edit_wide-0ab30a1c6b4b4e675323e4af4bb45979310ee096-960x540.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/burnett-border-fence-8-edit_wide-0ab30a1c6b4b4e675323e4af4bb45979310ee096-240x135.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/burnett-border-fence-8-edit_wide-0ab30a1c6b4b4e675323e4af4bb45979310ee096-375x211.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/burnett-border-fence-8-edit_wide-0ab30a1c6b4b4e675323e4af4bb45979310ee096-520x293.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Border Patrol agent James Nielsen stands near the original landing-mat border fence near Chula Vista. \u003ccite>(John Burnett/NPR)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"So we had a tight working area.

Now that he is president, it's unclear just what that wall is going to look like and when it might get built.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What we know so far is that it's likely to be a fence, not a wall, it won't extend the length of the border and it will be very unpopular with its southern neighbor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the moment, about a third of the 2,000-mile border with Mexico is fenced. Some parts are 10 feet tall, some are 20 feet, some are wire mesh, some are steel beams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The oldest kind of fencing is made of landing mat material from the Vietnam War — it's the \"primary fence, which is a vehicle barrier\" so vehicles won't easily be able to drive from Mexico into the U.S., says James Nielsen, a Border Patrol agent in the San Diego sector.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Border enforcement officials have been telling Trump's transition team that a fence alone is not enough. You also need agents, camera towers, stadium lights and sensors. If the president insists on a \"great wall\" to deliver on his campaign promise, Customs and Border Protection has identified 400 miles where the fence can be extended or reinforced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

For instance, the border fence stops at a gnarly mountain range at Otay Mesa about 15 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. The view from here is open country — no dividing line, no nothing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At the time that this fence was built, it was too expensive to continue,\" says Border Patrol spokesman Joshua Devack. The mountains are a natural barrier that, he says, \"a lot of crossers choose not to climb. ...

It's bad because it's racist. There has to be a border between different countries, but this is just going to divide us more.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mexico has not made the fence-building easy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the mid-2000s, Sundt Construction erected about 100 miles of fence in the remote west desert.

Now, federal investigators say they will examine whether public statements by Comey in July, October and November 2016 ran afoul of policies that caution officials not to influence the outcome of an election and to avoid making derogatory comments about people who have not been formally charged with wrongdoing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FBI had no immediate comment on the broad review, though Comey has told friends and employees he had few good choices in the investigation into Clinton's handling of classified information on her private email server.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Inspector General Michael Horowitz said he would not \"substitute\" his judgment on the declination to prosecute Clinton for that of prosecutors and the FBI.

"content": "\u003cp>At about 1:30 a.m. on Thursday, Republicans moved one step closer to repealing a law they have railed against since the moment it was passed nearly seven years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By a final vote of 51-48, the Senate approved a budget resolution that sets the stage for broad swaths of the Affordable Care Act to be repealed through a process known as budget reconciliation. The resolution now goes to the House, where leaders are hoping to approve it by the end of the week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The powerful tool sets up a fast track for repealing large parts of Barack Obama's major domestic achievement; the best guess is that the Senate is still several weeks away from largely repealing Obamacare. But as the process continues, large questions still loom over how -- and when -- Republicans will replace the health care law.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>An Expedited Repeal, Starting With a Vote-a-Rama\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The vote took place during a session known as a \"vote-a-rama.\" \u003ca href=\"http://politicaldictionary.com/words/vote-a-rama/\" target=\"_blank\">These all-night vote-fests\u003c/a> happen surrounding budget resolutions, which allow senators to propose unlimited amendments, as the \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/11/us/politics/vote-a-rama-senate-affordable-care-act.html\" target=\"_blank\">New York Times' Thomas Kaplan\u003c/a> explained this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The passage of the resolution kicks off the budget reconciliation process. That process is special because a reconciliation measure cannot be filibustered, meaning it allows the Senate to pass a bill with a simple majority (as opposed to needing 60 votes to overcome a filibuster). That's good for Republicans, who hold 52 of the Senate's 100 seats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once the House approves the measure, which could happen as soon as Friday, committees from both chambers will meet to create instructions telling the budget committee what repeal should look like. Once repeal legislation is drafted, both houses can pass it with a simple majority, and then it would go to President Trump for signature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Should that repeal legislation pass both houses and be signed by a President Trump, it would cut out important provisions of Obamacare, but would still not repeal the entire law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Budget reconciliation allows Congress only to repeal parts of the bill -- more specifically, the parts that deal with how much the government spends or taxes people. That means this process can't repeal, for example, the parts of the bill that allow young adults to stay on their parents' insurance or the rules saying companies couldn't deny coverage for people with pre-existing conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But those are the parts of the law that end up costing a lot of money, while the parts that can be repealed through budget reconciliation -- like the mandate that people have coverage (which is enforced through a tax), billions of dollars in Medicaid funds and subsidies for private coverage -- bring money into the system to help balance out the cost equation.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Democrats Try to Send Their Own Messages\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Democrats went into Wednesday night with a messaging plan: Use vote-a-rama to get Republicans on the record about what may come next. That plan consisted of proposing amendment after amendment to force Republicans to vote on Medicaid expansion, funding for rural hospitals, women's access to health care and other popular programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats know this is a train they can't stop. As the night drew to a close, all they could do was stage a protest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senators aren't supposed to give speeches during a vote, but Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Illinois, a disabled Iraq War veteran, ignored the rule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the presiding senator was gaveling for order, Duckworth said, \"For all those with pre-existing conditions, I stand on prosthetic legs to vote no!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The gaveling continued as Sen. Al Franken, D-Minnesota, said, \"I vote no on behalf of the more than 2.3 million Minnesotans who can no longer be discriminated against because of the ACA!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What's Next (And When)? That's Complicated ...\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Republicans are united on wanting to repeal Obamacare. But they're more divided over the time frame of that repeal, as well as what happens next.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At one point, it \u003ca href=\"http://www.politico.com/story/2016/12/obamacare-republicans-repeal-replace-232025\" target=\"_blank\">appeared likely\u003c/a> that congressional Republicans would take a \"repeal and delay\" approach -- that is, pass repeal legislation that would only be implemented far down the road, to allow time to craft a replacement for Obamacare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But now divisions are growing. \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/10/us/repeal-affordable-care-act-donald-trump.html\" target=\"_blank\">House Speaker Paul Ryan\u003c/a> this week said he would like a repeal and a replacement for Obamacare to come \"concurrently.\" And in a \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/01/11/509137239/watch-live-trump-holds-first-press-conference-as-president-elect\" target=\"_blank\">Wednesday press conference\u003c/a>, President-elect Donald Trump indicated that he would like the two to happen in quick succession, though he didn't provide much more clarity on that time frame.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It will be repeal and replace.

Later, he added, \"It will be various segments, you understand, but will most likely be on the same day or the same week -- but probably the same day -- could be a same hour.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other Republicans, however, believe the process won't be so abbreviated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't see any possibility of our being able to come up with a comprehensive reform bill that would replace Obamacare by the end of this month,\" said Maine Republican Sen. Susan Collins.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wisconsin Republican Sen. Ron Johnson also seemed to say on Tuesday that the process could take a while, involving multiple intermediate steps. As he \u003ca href=\"http://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2017/01/10/ron-johnson-obamacare\" target=\"_blank\">told WBUR's Here and Now\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you had a bridge that's about ready to collapse, you know, the first thing you would do is you'd start working to repair that bridge,\" he said. \"You aren't going to blow it up; I mean, at least people have a bridge to use. Repair that so people can use it while you start building other bridges.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Collins is one of five Republican senators who this week proposed that the resolution provide more time for committees to craft their instructions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One big concern for Republicans here is repealing a law they detest without disrupting the lives of the roughly 20 million people insured because of that law, including \u003ca href=\"http://money.cnn.com/2016/12/21/news/economy/obamacare-enrollment-record/\" target=\"_blank\">6.4 million Americans\u003c/a> insured through ACA exchanges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Americans definitely want some sort of change -- in \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/01/12/509314717/we-asked-people-what-they-know-about-obamacare-see-if-you-know-the-answers\" target=\"_blank\">an NPR-Ipsos poll released Thursday\u003c/a>, 38 percent said the ACA should be \"strengthened or expanded,\" and close behind, 31 percent said it should be repealed and replaced. Meanwhile, only 6 percent said it should be \"left as-is\" (the poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>With reporting from Susan Davis.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

That adoption probably would never happen for me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the system, I constantly had new social workers, lawyers and case managers, which left me vulnerable.

"content": "\u003cp>President Obama reflected on the achievements of his eight years in the White House on Tuesday night, telling supporters in his hometown of Chicago that they were instrumental in helping him boost the nation's economy, create his signature health care reform law and extend equal rights to more Americans:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"If I had told you eight years ago that America would reverse a great recession, reboot our auto industry, and unleash the longest stretch of job creation in our history, if I had told you that we would open up a new chapter with the Cuban people, shut down Iran's nuclear weapons program without firing a shot, and take out the mastermind of 9/11, if I had told you that we would win marriage equality, and secure the right to health insurance for another 20 million of our fellow citizens — you might have said our sights were set a little too high.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"But that's what we did. That's what you did. You were the change. You answered people's hopes, and because of you, by almost every measure, America is a better, stronger place than it was when we started.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The roughly one-hour farewell address was replete with the kind of soaring, hopeful rhetoric that propelled a first-term, 47-year-old senator to the Oval Office eight years ago and got him re-elected four years ago. He reflected on his roots as a community organizer and how the Windy City had shaped who he was as a man and as a public servant. And he grew emotional at points, especially when he thanked his wife, Michelle, daughters Sasha and Malia, and Vice President Biden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That faith I placed all those years ago, not far from here, in the power of ordinary Americans to bring about change — that faith has been rewarded in ways I couldn't possibly have imagined. I hope yours has, too,\" the president said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udrKnXueTW0\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Obama also acknowledged the country's deep divisions that have been exposed by a tumultuous election and defended the very foundations of democracy in the U.S. and abroad, just a week before President-elect Donald Trump is sworn in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For too many of us, it's become safer to retreat into our own bubbles, whether in our neighborhoods or college campuses or places of worship or our social media feeds, surrounded by people who look like us and share the same political outlook and never challenge our assumptions,\" the president said. \"The rise of naked partisanship, increasing economic and regional stratification, the splintering of our media into a channel for every taste — all this makes this great sorting seem natural, even inevitable. And increasingly, we become so secure in our bubbles that we accept only information, whether true or not, that fits our opinions, instead of basing our opinions on the evidence that's out there.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added emphatically:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"This trend represents a third threat to our democracy. Politics is a battle of ideas; in the course of a healthy debate, we'll prioritize different goals, and the different means of reaching them. But without some common baseline of facts, without a willingness to admit new information, and concede that your opponent is making a fair point, and that science and reason matter, we'll keep talking past each other, making common ground and compromise impossible.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>It was the most direct allusion the president would make toward his successor and his supporters, coming the same day that \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/01/10/509223836/trump-denies-allegations-of-secret-ties-collusion-between-campaign-and-russia\">stories broke\u003c/a> that top U.S. intelligence officials had documents alleging collusion between Russia and the president-elect. Trump has denied those allegations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"FqRur6hvpr1MgvVQRnDkRJju9pQq2SlG\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Obama mentioned the incoming commander in chief by name only once, saying, \"I committed to President-elect Trump that my administration would ensure the smoothest possible transition, just as President Bush did for me.\" Obama quieted the crowd's boos when he added, \"In 10 days, the world will witness a hallmark of our democracy: The peaceful transfer of power from one freely elected president to the next.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with Obama's later comments about the future of democracy, it was clear he had concerns about the president-elect's rhetoric on foreign adversaries, such as Russia, and throughout the campaign, especially against Muslim-Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Democracy can buckle when we give in to fear. So just as we, as citizens, must remain vigilant against external aggression, we must guard against a weakening of the values that make us who we are. That's why, for the past eight years, I've worked to put the fight against terrorism on a firm legal footing. That's why we've ended torture, worked to close Gitmo, and reform our laws governing surveillance to protect privacy and civil liberties. That's why I reject discrimination against Muslim-Americans,\" Obama said, drawing a sustained standing ovation from the crowd.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So let's be vigilant, but not afraid,\" the president continued. \"ISIL will try to kill innocent people. But they cannot defeat America unless we betray our Constitution and our principles in the fight. Rivals like Russia or China cannot match our influence around the world — unless we give up what we stand for, and turn ourselves into just another big country that bullies smaller neighbors.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Obama reflected on his own historic place as the country's first African-American president, but he admitted that his election did not do away with racial tensions — and that it never was going to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"After my election, there was talk of a post-racial America. Such a vision, however well intended, was never realistic,\" Obama said. \"For race remains a potent and often divisive force in our society. I've lived long enough to know that race relations are better than they were 10 or 20 or 30 years ago — you can see it not just in statistics, but in the attitudes of young Americans across the political spectrum.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately, the theme of Obama's speech was one encouraging all Americans — regardless of race, religion or political beliefs — to come together and focus on what unites them, rather than divides them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Understand, democracy does not require uniformity. Our founders quarreled and compromised, and expected us to do the same,\" Obama said. \"But they knew that democracy does require a basic sense of solidarity — the idea that for all our outward differences, we are all in this together; that we rise or fall as one.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Telling the country \"it has been the honor of my life to serve you,\" Obama said his service wasn't over and that he looked forward to contributing \"as a citizen, for all my days that remain.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For now, whether you're young or young at heart, I do have one final ask of you as your president — the same thing I asked when you took a chance on me eight years ago. I am asking you to believe. Not in my ability to bring about change — but in yours,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Obama ended with a familiar refrain, looking both back and ahead: \"Yes we can. Yes we did. Yes we can.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

That's what you did. You were the change. You answered people's hopes, and because of you, by almost every measure, America is a better, stronger place than it was when we started.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The roughly one-hour farewell address was replete with the kind of soaring, hopeful rhetoric that propelled a first-term, 47-year-old senator to the Oval Office eight years ago and got him re-elected four years ago. He reflected on his roots as a community organizer and how the Windy City had shaped who he was as a man and as a public servant. And he grew emotional at points, especially when he thanked his wife, Michelle, daughters Sasha and Malia, and Vice President Biden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That faith I placed all those years ago, not far from here, in the power of ordinary Americans to bring about change — that faith has been rewarded in ways I couldn't possibly have imagined. I hope yours has, too,\" the president said.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/udrKnXueTW0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/udrKnXueTW0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>But Obama also acknowledged the country's deep divisions that have been exposed by a tumultuous election and defended the very foundations of democracy in the U.S. and abroad, just a week before President-elect Donald Trump is sworn in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And increasingly, we become so secure in our bubbles that we accept only information, whether true or not, that fits our opinions, instead of basing our opinions on the evidence that's out there.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added emphatically:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"This trend represents a third threat to our democracy. Politics is a battle of ideas; in the course of a healthy debate, we'll prioritize different goals, and the different means of reaching them. But without some common baseline of facts, without a willingness to admit new information, and concede that your opponent is making a fair point, and that science and reason matter, we'll keep talking past each other, making common ground and compromise impossible.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>It was the most direct allusion the president would make toward his successor and his supporters, coming the same day that \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/01/10/509223836/trump-denies-allegations-of-secret-ties-collusion-between-campaign-and-russia\">stories broke\u003c/a> that top U.S. intelligence officials had documents alleging collusion between Russia and the president-elect. Trump has denied those allegations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Obama mentioned the incoming commander in chief by name only once, saying, \"I committed to President-elect Trump that my administration would ensure the smoothest possible transition, just as President Bush did for me.\" Obama quieted the crowd's boos when he added, \"In 10 days, the world will witness a hallmark of our democracy: The peaceful transfer of power from one freely elected president to the next.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with Obama's later comments about the future of democracy, it was clear he had concerns about the president-elect's rhetoric on foreign adversaries, such as Russia, and throughout the campaign, especially against Muslim-Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Democracy can buckle when we give in to fear. So just as we, as citizens, must remain vigilant against external aggression, we must guard against a weakening of the values that make us who we are. That's why, for the past eight years, I've worked to put the fight against terrorism on a firm legal footing. That's why we've ended torture, worked to close Gitmo, and reform our laws governing surveillance to protect privacy and civil liberties. That's why I reject discrimination against Muslim-Americans,\" Obama said, drawing a sustained standing ovation from the crowd.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So let's be vigilant, but not afraid,\" the president continued. \"ISIL will try to kill innocent people. But they cannot defeat America unless we betray our Constitution and our principles in the fight. Rivals like Russia or China cannot match our influence around the world — unless we give up what we stand for, and turn ourselves into just another big country that bullies smaller neighbors.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Obama reflected on his own historic place as the country's first African-American president, but he admitted that his election did not do away with racial tensions — and that it never was going to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"After my election, there was talk of a post-racial America. Such a vision, however well intended, was never realistic,\" Obama said. \"For race remains a potent and often divisive force in our society. I've lived long enough to know that race relations are better than they were 10 or 20 or 30 years ago — you can see it not just in statistics, but in the attitudes of young Americans across the political spectrum.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately, the theme of Obama's speech was one encouraging all Americans — regardless of race, religion or political beliefs — to come together and focus on what unites them, rather than divides them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Understand, democracy does not require uniformity. Our founders quarreled and compromised, and expected us to do the same,\" Obama said. \"But they knew that democracy does require a basic sense of solidarity — the idea that for all our outward differences, we are all in this together; that we rise or fall as one.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Telling the country \"it has been the honor of my life to serve you,\" Obama said his service wasn't over and that he looked forward to contributing \"as a citizen, for all my days that remain.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For now, whether you're young or young at heart, I do have one final ask of you as your president — the same thing I asked when you took a chance on me eight years ago. I am asking you to believe. Not in my ability to bring about change — but in yours,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Obama ended with a familiar refrain, looking both back and ahead: \"Yes we can. Yes we did. Yes we can.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
