I watched the speech, live, and repeated over and over by his favorite channels. I see nothing of substance in Obama's speeches, referring mostly to what has gone on in the past. Using the same trite phrases. Whereas Hillary's speeches give specifics, are intelligent presentations and capture my attention.
Obama constantly shouts out his talks. I find this extremely irritating and wonder why he is considered a great orator. Not in my book.

I don't see Clinton coming out of the convention with the nomination, but I never expected her to overtake Obama in elected delegates after his February haul. If she wins the nomination because enough SDs choose her over him, it won't be because they are 'overturning the will of the voters', but because they are doing the job that they were designed to do, which was to insure that the best candidate for November is named, in spite of the primaries. I know Obama's supporters hate that, but long time followers of presidential elections understand this. Had Obama won a couple of the big states he lost to Clinton, and gathered enough elected delegates to clinch the nomination, not just a majority of those up in primaries and caucuses, this would be a moot point. The biggest battle now, one which we hear about, but don't see up close on TV, is the campaign for those SDs to provide the total needed to clinch the convention vote.

Yes, change is coming to America after this election. depending on who gets elected, we will either make a course correction or we will go down the tubes.

If you think it can't happen to Fortress America, just remember what happenned to the U.S.S.R. less than a generation ago.

No one would have believed that the Soviet Empire would go down so quickly. After decades of ossified leadership, just a small push caused it to fall over.

In some ways, the US leadership is beginning to resemble what was in the Kremblin, closed off,priviledged,and believing too much in their own invincibility. Their arrogance lead to downfall. So can our own.
