Obama's Speech Editing

I think the reason why Obama made all those edits was to make his speech more relative and listener-friendly to the American people. He used pronouns, and even nicknames, so that it didn't sound so business-like. He also wanted to include everyone so he used the word "we" for unity. His approach for reeling the public into his speech was endearing, instead of stern. He also added a lot to further clarify or define what he said. He really wanted everyone to understand what he meant by what he was saying.

Every good speech should be revised multiple times. He wanted to be thoughtful, and he wanted to be effective.
