Barack Obama in a December 2009 "60 Minutes" interview:
"[Wall Street bankers] don’t get it. They’re still puzzled why it is that people are mad at the banks. Well, let’s see. You guys are drawing down $10 million, $20 million bonuses after America went through the worst economic year that it’s gone through in decades, and you guys caused the problem.
I did not run for office to be helping out a bunch fat cat bankers on Wall Street."
