Do you know that our words can make us closer to what we want or destroy it altogether? US President-elect Obama is one example of that. He is one of the most talented people in the area of leadership and public speaking, and I am very sure, his pulic speaking ability played a very important role in his bid to The White House.
For goodness sake, this guy is good in talking. If there is a public speaking competition among US presidents, I am sure this guy will give Bill Clinton and JFK a hard time.

"Tonight, we gather to affirm the greatness of our nation—not because of the height of our skyscrapers, or the power of our military, or the size of our economy. Our pride is based on a very simple premise, summed up in a declaration made over two hundred years ago: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." That is the true genius of America—a faith in simple dreams, an insistence on small miracles."
His choice of words is just superb.
"There is not a liberal America and a conservative America — there is the United States of America. There is not a Black America and a White America and Latino America and Asian America — there's the United States of America."
Genius!!
"Today, on this day of possibility, we stand in the shadow of a lanky, raw-boned man with little formal education who once took the stage at Old Main and told the nation that if anyone did not believe the American principles of freedom and equality, that those principles were timeless and all-inclusive, they should go rip that page out of the Declaration of Independence."
"I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to. It belongs to you. It belongs to you."
Good speeches ENTERTAIN people.
Great speeches INSPIRE people.
Extraordinary speeches MOVE people.

For Obama's case, his speeches MOVE people to VOTE for him.
For a very long time, I have never found politics to be so interesting. I am a big fan of him since long time ago, and the Americans are very lucky to have someone like him.
