  1. Hi!!
    I watched the viedo about Barack Obama's speech. I couldn't understand his speech all because I don't have English words enough....But I think the word "hope" in his speech is the keyword!! I study English more and more and I want to understand his speech all!!
    See you next class!!

  2. I'll see if I can get a transcript for you. It's a great little speech but he has so MANY of them.

  3. Hello!
    He is so confident and his speech is very strong. As Chihiro said, the word "hope" is the key and also "yes we can" on other speech. I love the ways of saying "you and I will change this country".
    By the way, in Japan have any politician ever give speech like his? Have any politician give speech to Japanese people? I don't think so...

  4. I think Barack Obama is truly a gifted individual. We have not seen someone like him in my generation and we may not again.
