well said obama


President Obama’s speech was priceless. He really talked to the people and made them come "together" and made "us" all united as one. Together and us is very important in his speech because it represents who we all are. We are all just one big person in this world trying figure out the good from bad. Obama uses ethos during his speech with the use of his words and body gestures to make us all become one.

Obama talks about how everyone is affected by the economy and how it’s a problem. He states we should all just help each other overcome these obstacles and mentions how the "founding fathers" overcame many obstacles. He dates us back to 1776 with the "founding fathers" and how we should work and change the US how they changed in years ago. Obama says “Our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law – for if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well. Our journey is not complete until no citizen is forced to wait for hours to exercise the right to vote. Our journey is not complete until we find a better way to welcome the striving, hopeful immigrants who still see America as a land of opportunity; until bright young students and engineers are enlisted in our workforce rather than expelled from our country. Our journey is not complete until all our children, from the streets of Detroit to the hills of Appalachia to the quiet lanes of Newtown, know that they are cared for, and cherished, and always safe from harm." meaning that our generation should come as one and help out and care for everyone and not be disgraceful.

Obama speech opened the eyes of many in the way that we are all "together" in this and should help each other out. "Us" the people should help the community out not only for ourselves but for the good in everyone. Equality is the word that makes us all come together and we should all be equal because no one is better than anyone when someone is helping another out.
