Mary Kate Cary, a speechwriter for President George H.W. Bush thinks that location plays a major role in the election. Mary Kate Cary, thinks that Ronald Reagan choose a great spot to use for the inauguration. He was able to describe his view of the Washington Monument, the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials, and then concluding by honoring the soldiers whose tombstones he could see across the river in Arlington National Cemetery. According to Cary, location is one of the first rules of speech writing. Her second rule is to challenge your audience. She says "Barack Obama can deliver a speech unlike anyone in our generation. He knows how to get people off the couch — to vote, to give time and money, and now to act with the audacity of hope." I agree with this article for many reasons. I think by having good location spots, and changeling your audience it will make Obama the est president we ever had.


In my opinion, I think Obama is really trying to make a difference for our country. I honestly think that by having Obama as president, we can once again be the country, that beacon for the world. Right now, our country needs change, and I honestly think Obama will make that happen.

Living apart From The Paycheck


Family's all are the world are now seeing how difficult it is to find work in their area. Many married couples are now having to split up since they can not find work in there area. One family is the Ghosh’s. They now live 9,000 apart since they can not find work in there area. My Ghosh talks to his children through Skype, or email. In 2006, the Census Bureau reported that 3.6 million married Americans were living apart from their spouses. The Ghosh's aren't the only couples who realized that it is easier to find work outside there area. In my opinion i think technology definitely has a major influence on spouses moving away from each other. Years ago people were didn't have the technology we have today, and therefore could not communicate with loved ones like we can today. We are able to communicate with them through email, instant messenger, video chatting, or even the telephone. I think without technology, it would be much more difficult to communicate with our loved ones.
