Read the text of President Obama’s speech.
Pick two parts that you like or disagree with. Copy and paste those parts into your response and then in react and respond to the ideas you chose. Your response must be free of errors, grammatically correct and insightful.
Example:
“In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned”
This idea appeals to me. I have thought that for too long our nation has behaved as though things were owed to us. Personally, I attribute this to the baby boom generation’s “me-centric” attitude. I think that anything worthwhile has to be earned, and I am willing to work for it. This part of the speech inspires me and makes me think about what I’m willing to do in order to make the world what I want it to be.
