Barack Obama at the 2008 DNC August 28, 2008

38 million people took time away from their busy schedule to watch him.That alone tells you the sheer lure that he as in attracting people to his ,and in my humble opinion, brilliant speech at the Mile High Stadium

Now ,personally,I care not for politics.I really do not,but Obama's character and poise has a certain charm to it.Obama is an excellent speaker.In regards to this specific speech at the DNC his style is casual yet it displays a certain bit of authority.He throws of his persona as an easy -going fan of your typical low-middle class worker in the States.The majority.

The buildup from 6.00 to the electrifying "Enough!" at 7.00 ,followed by the cheers of the 84,000 present is nothing sort of the man's mastery of effective speaking and the art of persuasion.Obama's message appeals to emotion.The disgruntled mass of low-middle class workers who are sick and tired of the 8 years of ,and I quote in his words "...failures of the Republicans.. ".


Although,I argue,is Obama all that credible?

It is clear and obvious that Obama is almost no political experience when compared to McCain .He is certainly more educated but lets be real here,can fancy education make someone credible enough to be the next Commander -in - Chief?If not,why then are more Americans trusting their next 4 years to someone who has not yet shown an ounce of political experience?


While I certainly neither support either of them ,it certainly brings up the issue of ,the exact reason the American citizens are basing their vote on.It would be interesting to see , if political experience of McCain can trump the brilliance of Obama's ability to pull in the masses.What do you guys think?
