Candidate Barack Obama gave a speech recently which directly addressed the racial divide which our country lives in. His speech was so influential and inspiring, Joe Biden commented saying it was truthful, powerful, and he said it was one of the most significant speeches he has heard in a while. Biden stated, "He told the story of America _ both the good and the bad _ and I believe his speech will come to represent an important step forward in race relations in our country.”
Barack Obama gave a speech on February 16th 2008which seemed very similar to Deval Patrick’s speech on October 15th 2006. In fact, when comparing the video and reading both speeches, they were alike in many ways. This copying of speeches shocked me when I saw this. I wonder how it will be, if Obama wins, to have a president who has lifted words – sentences from someone else’s speech just to get appointed into office. This shows Obama’s disparity in competing against Hillary Clinton. He obviously is worried about this presidential election or else he would not have risked copying someone else’s speech.

Biden has shared a popular analysis of Obama's powerful speech. Even as a Clinton supporter, I do believe that Obama's speech was very impressive. I believe the words of Obama's speech will resonate with the voters of the nation and diminish many negative criticisms about Obama or scandals.
