Obama's acceptance speech

Good speech. My biggest criticism is that I did not feel he inspired listeners to make change within their own lives, but told them to rely on him. Instead of talking about the family who let in their less fortunate neighbors as if they were just someone out there, make everyone listening to want to do the same in the future. Instead of telling how he will recruit an army of teachers to educate the next generation, inspire those listening to actually join that movement. Instead of promising to raise environmental standards and push high efficiency cars, get the United States to start purchasing them.

If Obama would have spent around five minutes at the end doing that and gotten his supporters to join in with him in making change, in being revolutionary, his speech would have been absolutely phenomenal.
