Obama's Speech that Ignited his Presidential Flame

Here is the speech from last November at the Iowa Jefferson Jackson Dinner that started Obama's rise in the Democratic presidential primary process.

You can disagree with Obama's policy proposals or be cynical towards his fresh new political approach but there is no denying that this man can move an audience with his oratory skills and mere presence.

The reason this speech was different was that Barack was feeling it. Endlessly needling the politicians of the past, Barack explained the reasons he is in this race.

"... that's why I'm running it Iowa"

he cried.

This will go down as one of the best speeches in American History ever.
