William Gavin was a speechwriter for Richard Nixon who did not say who he thinks Obama is going to quote but to send truth and meaning to the government. He asks the question "inspire us to do or think what?". This is a very good question because Obama needs to show the people that he can lead us and make good decisions. He also believes that Obama needs to make a great speech and no slogan filled.

I believe that Obama does need to step up and give a great speech and show people what exactly he plans to do and promise us. William Gavin had the right idea to think that Obama needs to do a slogan free presidentsy

Like in the article I have a family member that lives in a different country who I keep in touch with using technology. My nana lives in Glasgow Scotland and it is hard for her to get to the states because of an illness she has. I keep in touch with her by calling her every week and sending her emails if I have time. The whole side of my dads family does the same thing. Like the guy in the story I use skype to keep in touch with my friends that live in different parts of the US. Skype makes you able to see the person on the other side of the IM and talk to them instead of typing.
