-The interviewer asks Obama how he would have helped increase national pride/ national service if he were president in the wake of 9/11.
His answer : He stumbles at first, then he drifts and talks about nothingness for 30 seconds, then he said something like "We need a multi faceted approach to secure energy independence. This will put people to work and we will innovate to help expand advocacy and the resurgence of technological diversity and national reconstructionism to CHANGE in order to offer a more equal opportunity front to the war on terrorism...
This is how this guy talks for the first minute after he is asked a direct, specific question. Reminds me of John Kerry.
Me neither. He wants to make the government "cool" again. He was talking about the national parks, etc. What? What about national security? The economy? Illegal immigration?
Didn't see it, but I'm having a hard time making sense of that quote. I understand it, don't get me wrong, but what on earth does it have to do with national pride?
Obama doesn't understand like Reagan did, that patriotism is an intangible quality.
All I know is that the interviewer asked Obama how he would have helped increase national pride/ national service if he were president in the wake of 9/11 and Obama went on a long rant about energy independence and creating jobs in the energy industry. He probably is talking about his plan to nationalize the oil industry...

that's how he talks when he's not giving a speech!!! That's just an example!!!
The pundit called it an excellent night for Obama.
Btw, judging from your posts, i'm not surprised that Obama doesn't inspire you... he probably NEVER will.
I honestly, truthfully liked Obama (still don't hate him) when he first came onto the scene. I was intrigued. Then I realized I don't agree with anything he says.
I can't wait until the debates because Obama canot give a quick answer. He's going to um um um his way through them, while McCain was the Republican of choice for the news media for many years so he's used to quick answers.
