Three speeches. One day. No comment.
"This uncertainty has led to anxiety among our people. And that is understandable -- that anxiety can feed anxiety, and that can make it hard to see all that is being done to solve the problem. The federal government has a comprehensive strategy and the tools necessary to address the challenges in our economy. Fellow citizens: We can solve this crisis -- and we will."

__________________________


"Will our country be a better place under the leadership of the next president – a more secure, prosperous, and just society? Will you be better off, in the jobs you hold now and in the opportunities you hope for? Will your sons and daughters grow up in the kind of country you wish for them, rising in the world and finding in their own lives the best of America? And which candidate’s experience – in government and in life – makes him a more reliable leader for our country and commander in chief for our troops? In short, who is ready to lead? In a time of trouble and danger for our country, who will put our country first?"

__________________________

"Now is not the time for fear. Now is not the time for panic. Now is the time for resolve and steady leadership. We can meet this moment. We can come together to restore confidence in the American economy. We can renew that fundamental belief -- that in America, our destiny is not written for us, but by us. That's who we are, and that's the country we need to be right now."

2. There were three authors.
Only one of those speeches resonates with me. I don't know about anyone else.

4. They all resonate with me on paper. But in context of who is saying it matters.
1 Bush, 2 McCain, 3 Obama. 1st 2 have failed us and we know they lie.

8. I find McCain's to be the bottom of the barrel.
Claiming to put "Country First" as he essentially says, "me me me!" What an asshole!

10. Yes, it is so easy to see who the REAL leader is.
Obama is always so uplifting and calming. He is the ONLY one that can lead us out of the abyss.
