What can be said that hasn't been?
I watched the speech last night whilst at the New Economics Foundation. There was enough there to keep lot of us happy.
As importantly, I was able to say to my sons (aged 7 and 6) this morning that for the first time in their lives there is a President of the USA who gives me hope for their future.
Of course he won't deliver everything we, and he, hopes for.
But hope helps. And we didn't have it. Now we have. That'll do for today.
I too watched the Barrack Obama speech and I share your sentiments. Am writing this just to say you write well, really well, about the new hope for the next generation! .
Also agreed I too took time out to watch his speech – Let’s hope he can deliver even 50% of it. A Good Day. Hopefully more important than a lot of people realise. The world has changed Obama realises this.
