Barack Obama: “I might not be President if it weren’t for the good people of Idaho”

What I do know about Boise is that it’s beautiful. I know that because I’ve been here before. I campaigned here in 2008. It was really fun. And the truth is, because of the incredible work that was done here in Idaho, it helped us win the primary. And I might not be President if it weren’t for the good people of Idaho.

— President Obama, speaking to students at Boise State University earlier today. The speech and the visit to Idaho’s capital was Obama’s first as President.
