Barack Obama's Speech

USATODAY.com - Barack Obama's remarks at the Democratic convention. An amazingly impressive speech by all. Here's the original text.

It is sad that even with hundreds of millions spent, there really isn't a simple slogan and explanation for Kerry. Maybe it will come out tonight.

If I were him, I'd be shameless and steal from the best quote so far. Very hard for politicans (or marketing people for that matter alike) to do that I know. One of the hardest things to do is to just copy what is good.

Kerry apparently is spending 30 minutes a day working on his speech. To me, not a great sign, kind of thing is hard to get right and you need professionals to help you. Having given presentations, I can tell you that for the average person it doesn't come naturally and it is really hard, but super worthwhile to get critiqued and honest feedback.

So here's my vote on slogan:

Well, I say to them tonight, there's not a liberal America and a conservative America — there's the United States of America. There's not a black America and white America and Latino America and Asian America; there's the United States of America.
