"Yes we can," President Barack Obama told an emotional crowd during his farewell address. "Yes we did."
Obama bid goodbye to the nation from his hometown Chicago Tuesday night, declaring he hadn't abandoned his vision of progressive change.
"The long sweep of America has been defined by forward motion, a constant widening of our founding creed to embrace all, and not just some," Obama said.
As he spoke before a rowdy crowd of supporters, Obama was interrupted often with screams of "I love you Obama." When a protester held up a sign reading "pardon all of us," chants of "four more years" drowned out the shouts.
