On the February 10th
2007 in Chicago, Barack Obama announced officially his candidacy for President
of United States.
First through
this speech, he clearly explained the reasons why he decided to become the next
44th American President. In fact it’s possible to summarize his
Presidential announcement in few words: Believe in America-Peace-Hope-Poverty-Health-opportunity
and Change. It’s obvious that when he pronounced this address, “Change” was
his favorite slogan, instead of “Yes we can”.
Announcing his
candidacy, Barack Obama tried to present his story, how he arrived in Chicago, what
kind education he learnt there, but he also expressed his view about America.
The challenge they must overcame for bringing change in America. Despite the
fact he didn’t stay a long time in Washington, he said:” I know I haven’t spent a lot of time learning the ways of Washington,
but I have been there long enough to know that the ways of Washington must change”.
On the other
hand, we can consider like important the choice of Springfield. That is the
place where Lincoln started his campaign in 1858 and also the place where North,
South, East and West came together. Knowing the challenges he had to face, he
particularly underlined a fact that “Each
and every time, a new generation has risen up and done what’s needed to be
done. Today we are called once more- and it is time for our generation to
answer that call”. Facing all of those challenges, afterward he asked to American
citizens to support his campaign. For the future battles arguing: “So let us begin this hard work together. Let
us transform this nation...Let’s be the generation that ends poverty in America”.
Finally this
Presidential announcement has been the first time for the future President to
express his view about the war in Iraq. He clearly argued his opposition to
this mistake and promised to bring home the American troops.
