2/17/09 Obama Speech

The way that President Obama gets the people to believe in him and to follow him is by talking about the problems that are going on within the country and saying that event though they it might take time to fix them it will eventually happen. The way he gives us hope that this change will occur is when he goes back in time and says that sixty years ago his father was not able to even get served in a local restaurant and now he is standing in front of us taking a sacred oath. I believe that this really helps the people believe that he will make a change. I believe that also by referencing to the past and letting us know of all the hardships that this country has had to over come it makes us feel like change can and is going to happen.
