Maybe they didn’t officially vote to make it a national motto.
But in March of 1931 they did vote to make the Star Spangled Banner the national anthem. **Including verse four***.

“thus be it ever when freemen shall stand,
Between their loved home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n-rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: “In God is our trust”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!”

Of course, i’ll give Obama a break. You see, when i was in 5th grade, i went to a school in Texas where we all learned it by heart,,, all four verses. To be fair, they probably didn’t do that at his Muslim school in Indonesia. And his commie momma sure didn’t teach him,,,

That’s from our Star Spangled Banner, not Barry’s.
