I've been an Obama fan from the very beginning to be honest. I was initially drawn to his advocacy of 'hope' and his fresh ideas. Although his time in office has not been operated 'smoothly' (just like every other American president), and although there are many, including me, that do not agree with all of the decisions he has made, President Obama has definitely come a long way.
I think the beginning of this speech exemplifies exactly what his difficulty has been for the majority of his time in office so far: partisan politics has become the forefront of the agenda as opposed to the most necessary mobilization and togetherness of the two parties for the sake of passing bills and making a change for the people of America.
President Obama talks on the economy, job creation, taxes, infrastructure, health care and more.
I love the clarity and organization of his speech here, and I hope both Republicans and Democrats put most of the competition aside for the time being so that progress can be made.
What do you think about the speech or about Obama's presidency?
