"This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time has surely passed. Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.
For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act - not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. And all this we will do. "

I think Obamas smart choice of words is what makes his speeches so strong and I think his confidence is why most people have so much trust in him. I felt like this quote I took from the Inauguration speech is a great example of how well he does at giving speeches but if you really look into the choice of words used in the quote it has a lot of meaning to it and connects to our every day lives as Americans.
"Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America." I believe that this part of the quote, many American will find inspiring. I think it will inspire them to still have hope in America. To not worry so much about the Economy problems. Now currently in America, we are having a big economy problem so many people are losing their jobs, many houses are being foreclosed, and schools dont have the enough funds to support the students education but what does Obama say to inspire us,
"We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. "
