On Thursday August 28, 2008 Barack Obama gave his acceptance speech at Invesco Field for the democratic party. 80,000 people attended and millions viewed in. Obama addressed the American people. The focal point of the speech was reform. Obama calls upon America to make reforms in: the government, rid the addiction of non renewable fuels, create jobs, better the economy, education, foreign affairs, health care,and equality for all Americans be that gender, orientation, or economic stance. As the next president, Obama promises change and revision in all of these areas and more.
In the speech Obama added stories about his mother, grandmother and grandfather. The audience connected emotionally with these stories. Some even cried. The crowd was energetic through their cheers and applause. Obama's audience gave his speech power and inspiration.They were extremely supportive and ready to vote for change. Obama delivered an amazing speech giving hope to all Americans; including me.

I do agree with you that the video before Obama's speech began was powerful and drew connections between people. I think everyone expects all this change now from Obama-but can he really chage as much as he promised? He is not the only one who gets to pass bills, ect.
