"This was the moment. This was the time where we came together to remake this great nation so that it may always reflect our very best selves and our highest ideals".
I think Obama's Democratic nomination speech will have a place in the Great Speeches collection along side Nelson Mandela's Address Upon Release from Prison and Martin Luther King Jr's I Have A Dream.
The audacity of hope, the conviction for truth, the fight for the common man's plight and ultimately the belief and trust that the highest ideals are worthy pursuits.
He is one classy guy.

Hmmm.
ReplyDeleteI am listening to the speech now.
It really is quite good.
The things he's saying are all the kinds of things I'm wanting to hear...
It's really good to see.
I hope he wins, and turns out to be as good as it seems he might be...
We're all putting a lot of hope in this man...
Hey, the speech didn't finish, he was in the middle of congratulation Hillary Clinton on the contest.
ReplyDeleteHe is very inspiring, isn't he? Very awe-inspiring. (saying 'awesome' is not enough for an occasion such as this one)
If you click on the arrow thingo in the bottom right, it gives you the option to pick the other parts (i.e. Part 2, 3 and 4) of his 'awesome' speech.
