“Hope and Change” is as ambiguous as it appears. It’s just like all of Obama's positions, vague and overstated; as empty as words can be.
“Hope” is something we all have, without “hope” we see no future. So, to offer “hope” to a class of citizens who feel their government has diminished all chances of it is a big deal! Mosses gave his people hope(Then wondered the desert for 40years).
“Change” is inevitable yet Obama can promise this under the pretense that his change will be good without ever saying that. Just like “Hope”, “Change” is just as ambiguous but no matter what happens change is what you will get.
Obama’s whole campaign was based off of the people’s self justifying beliefs as if to say, “Obama will give me what I deserve (HOPE) and stop the man from screwing me over (CHANGE)” (which is a misguided belief anyway). A lot of Americans felt this way even if in the backs of their minds they knew this was hogwash. They felt there could be, even if it was in their wild imagination, a chance for this.
But in the real world, Obama hides his true beliefs under the cloak of “Change” and “Hopes” the majority of his (fooled) supporters will never figure it out on their own.
As I have said before, Obama’s “Hope and Change” is under the pretense that the citizens see him as an equal, as a blue collar, as a fellow citizen, as a man trying to make ends meet and as a man who is tired of being bullied by big government and big business. But, Obama is really none of those, he is big government, he is big business and the whole while still acting as if some other force is creating these problems for America when it is his doing. He is the creator of chaos appearing to be the rescuer from it.

“Hope and Change” is for the desperate unwilling to put forth effort.
“Achievement and Prosperity” is for those who do not wait for others to act on their behalf.

I agree. People who don't want to work and achieve on their own hope someone will come along and improve their lives for them.

I guess to some extent those on the unemployment bandwagon must be pleased with him.

Apparently it means bad economy, high unemployment, and lots of new government regulations regarding health care, finances, and the environment.
