This speech has been called historic by people not necessarily in the Obama camp. I believe the looked at the speech as American rather than Democratic. So much acclaim has been given to this speech, I decided to post it in its entirety. It is approximately 4000 words long, twice as long as his inaugural speech.

Awesome! Thank You so much for putting this up here Moon, finally, a cure for my insomnia!
Also, off topic but I found this interesting political quiz… after you take it it breaks down which party you most fit with and which president you most resemble.

You know, Obama could make a ton of money from this (a non-Rx cure for insomnia). Besides, he has already performed his patient study of his product at West point:

3 out of 5 cadets agree, this will make you fall asleep with no problem.
It looks like you are out of step with all the Republican leaders who felt that he had borrowed both Bush the elder and W’s speech writers. You need to forget who is talking for a moment and listen to what he is saying on behalf of America.
Yeah, beause you supported Bush soooo much, that’s what you loved about the speech right, because it was so Bush like?
Did it bring you to tears some some other posters here?
Hello, I never said I loved the speech or didn’t love it. I said many people from the opposition praised it. I actually didn’t give MY opinion of it. He was speaking for our country, not the Democratic Party.
Furthermore, you have rarely heard me on the subject of Bush.
You might want to listen to it since it defined American foreign policy for the next few years and wasn’t too far off the mark for the past 60 years.
And in the meanwhile, cut the hostilities.
Again Moon, I have stated about 3 times already, content wise it was a good speech. He finally talked about this country in a positive manner. I think this was his best speech so far, hands down.
Having said that, his delivery was flat… agree or disagree?
And it worked great last night, tossing and turning all night. Played this speech and I was sleeping like a baby in no time at all.
