    Re: President Obama's Farewell Address

    Good speech. Good speaker.

    Unfortunately he has made race relations worse with his divisive rhetoric and crying wolf.

      just remember George W Bush used a teleprompter as well.
      There is an enormous change the US goes from arguably one of the greatest presidents to one of the worst.

          Do you have examples of his "divisive rhetoric" and his "crying wolf?" I ask, because this charge seems completely unfounded.

          This isn't a dress rehearsal. Enjoy yourself. There's no do-over.

            Noticed in his speech when he cited his accomplishments (saving the economy and auto industry, job and wage growth, healthcare, etc.) as "we" achieved not "I".

              Agree completely. Well said. He is a class act and probably the best speaker I've heard. I have heard Bill Clinton speak (in person), he's also excellent. I think they all use teleprompters. Difficult not to given his speech was just shy of an hour.

                Politicians employ speechwriters.

                The POTUS is too busy doing important things, like protecting the free world, closing Guantanamo Bay, etc.

                  From what I understand, this President writes a lot of his own material. President Kennedy was another.

                      Not sure how JFK found the time...maybe he fit it in between his wife-cheating episodes. Pierre Salinger was a great spin doctor, wasn't he.

                        Surely you must be joking. His rhetoric brought up the race card after EVERY shooting was basically accusing cops of racism even when there was no evidence.
