President Obama's Speech

William Safire predicted what president-elect Obama will say at his inauguration speech. He knows that he will inspire people, and teach them the right way. “Early this week what he sees as his main task in this speech: “to try to capture as best I can the moment that we are in … this is the crossroad that we’re at. And then to project confidence that if we take the right measures that we can once again be that country, that beacon for the world.” He wants to make us one country again, not all individual states. Obama will try to show him that he is going to take responsibility for the Untied States actions.The speech he has undoubtedly studied closely for its moment is the 1933 adress by Franklin Roosevelt, delivered with the nation already in the grip of depression, 40 percent of the work force unemployed.

I think that William is correct. Obama will try to inspire people and give them Hope. He wants us to be one country again becasue the economy is doing very poorly.
