President Obama speech at Arizona State University, had a very important line concerning the difference between a title and an accomplishment.
At the 3:40 mark or so he starts to hit it out of the park with a segment that culminates with the following quote:
“I come to affirm that one’s title, even a title like President of the United States says very little about how well one’s life has been lead.”
The advice he is giving is pretty good and the message strong. It doesn’t seem to be that it is the advice that he has followed himself, but the message itself is right.
If he lives up to those ideas he is speaking then he will turn out to be an excellent president. (remember he has been in only 4 months or 6 1/4% of his terms. He could actually rise to the occasion.) I doubt this will happen but you know I’d love for him to prove me wrong.
Update: Missed the 3rd part.
