Who's still listening to this iconic speech in 2025?

Times were so different when we had Presidents who could talk in complete coherent sentences.

"No one knew who this guys was"
Back when you voted for someone because you supported them, not because you hated the other guy

If only we still had leaders who sought to unite us instead of divide us. It’s easy to forget these days that all of us are American, no matter what background or political party you’re from. We need hope like this again.

Wow, there was actually a time we had to choose who was better - not who was less terrible.

Man, he really has public speaking down...WOW!

My favorite quote there is not a liberal America, a conservative America, this is the United States of America.

My question to the citizen of the United States is: What the f... Happened?
kjg655 (2 years ago)
I will never forget this speech. I turned to my husband and said, "He will be president one day." I never doubted the certainty I felt that night.

Funny how this got recommended to me after the worst debate in America's history

Nice thing about Obama was that "He did not read much of his speeches, HE spoke freely..

It's 2026, I'm not even an American, but this just made me tear up.
