Critique

I have to definately disagree with FPriceComm140230. This person mentioned something pertaining to Obama's tone and how he should have put some type of excitement or serious tone. His tone was absolutely perfect. If he were to be too serious or too excited, people wouldn't really focus much on the speech. It was a good thing that he seemed calm to show a sense of understanding. Also, FPrice said that Obama should have gave examples on how our economy will change. I disagree because I believe Obama will do his best to change but can't make any promises.

Obama Speech

1. The message being sent during this speech was that we as Americans have suffered enough. 60 years ago today we were not able to sit next to one another. Now, with positive knowledge we can look at the people who said we couldn't, "YES WE CAN!"

2.President Obama's speech was delivered in pure excellence. His eye contact,connecting with his viewers, no card usage, and his calm but serious tone assured that he knew exactly what he was talking about. The volume was also good especially since there was a microphone present.

3.On a scale of 1-10, I would rate this a 9. Obama seemed to have memorized alot which showed that he practiced it thoroughly which was a plus on my side. Although he may have stumbled a bit on one or two words, it was overall perfect.

4. There were no noticeceable interferences during his speech, but the constant applause allowed him to stop and pause.

5.Although this speech was quite lengthy, I would not want to improve anything about it.
