I swear after the last nine months the man's voice is like a soothing balm for the soul.
And the hopefulness in his voice.....I had almost forgotten how good that sounds.
Here is how GQ Magazine described it:
Yesterday President Barack Obama re-emerged on the scene like Han Solo coming back at the end of Star Wars: A New Hope. Okay, maybe that's overstating it a little, but what can I say, we've been severely lacking in hope and here we have Mr. Hope himself back on the national political scene campaigning and reminding us what it was like to have an actual honest-to-God adult speaking to Americans. He campaigned for Democrats in both New Jersey and Virginia and in the process threw some political elbows at his successor and the depressing state of the American political landscape. You know how when you used to wake up and check Twitter, it was kind of fun, but now it just feels like someone spitting directly into your face first thing in the morning? Yeah, these speeches were the first things in a while that don't make me feel that way.
Exactly!
In the first part of this speech you can hear the crowd shouting "Four more years!"
And just for a minute did you not find yourself wishing that such a thing were possible?
