Compare And Contrast Obama And Trump's Inaugural Address

In the general purposes of the three inaugural addresses of FDR, JFK and Barack Obama, they were focused on appreciating the constitutional process which involves the inauguration of the U.S president. For example, recently, President Obama stated in his speech that people gathers each year to observe the enduring strength of the U.S and the act of democracy. FDR also appreciated the need for the inauguration in upholding the constitutional values and cultures.

Have you ever gone to a presidential inauguration? Barack Obama and George Washington are two presidents of 45 presidents that were inaugurated and made inaugural addresses for the future of the country. Both presidents talked about their own views, with some similar and others different. They were both elected to office in bad times for the country. George Washington was elected when the United States gained independence and Barack Obama was elected when they were at war with Iran and Afghanistan.

Obama introduced his speech greeted the audience, and since the beginning he identified himself as one more citizen of the America, by refereeing to his broadly audience as “his fellow citizens,” (Klein) which was an effective way to have the people attention. Then he grounded his words on the Constitution of the United States to introduce his thesis about how the patriots of 1776 fought to give us a republic and a government that defended the rights of its people. He also presented the main points of his speech, and concluded his introduction by sharing common past experiences about the economic success achieved and about the importance of protecting the most vulnerable. This way he put his ideas in context and made his address more credible.

Barack Obama and George Washington both had great speeches. George Washington was the first to take the oath. After that there were a lot more. Barack Obama was the 44th president of the United States. They both were really good presidents. Their speeches were amazing as well.

As a new President takes office, it is the inauguration address that marks the beginning of their term. This formal speech marks the first time the President lays out his intentions as the leader of the country. The inaugural addresses often make promises to address the nations concerns and issues. Usually the addresses that have the greatest impact, are the ones most remembered. Consider President Franklin D. Roosevelt and President Barrack Obama, both of these Presidents gave strong inauguration addresses, however it was Roosevelt’s words that seemed more realistic, and ultimately had a greater impact for the American public.

The most interesting parts of Obama’s speech, to me, were the clarifications on his educational policies. His plans for higher education, such as halting student loan payments after 20 years or 10 years for public servants, seemed pretty cool to me. I’m not sure if taking government money to be used for student loans and giving it to parents while simultaneously stopping loan payments after 20 years is such a good idea. Pissing off the entire banking system might not be such a good idea in the long run. Grunts will be fired before CEOs cut their own bonuses, and I really don’t feel like that is particularly conducive to a good financial system.

President Obama apologized for America's closing deals at a disadvantage giving opposed to fairness. Trump, a realist, must work with the opposition as Obama. However; the difference striking and reviting favors the US creating leadership missed and

Donald Trump, a once controversial political candidate, gave his 2017 Inaugural address on January 20th, 2017 when he was inaugurated as the 45th president of the United States. Through appeals such as syntax and diction, religion and patriotism, and logic, Donald Trump was able to generate a unifying speech toward his audience. Amidst the growing violence and repercussions of the 2016 election, Donald Trump, in his 2017 Inaugural address, sends the message that he will put America and its citizens first to unite the country and change America for the better.

The most profound difference between Lincoln and Obama definitely have to be their prior political qualifications before running for President, specifically the depth and duration of partisan involvement. Abraham Lincoln spent nearly three decades in party politics. This experience included working and campaigning for numerous candidates and political causes. Everyone knew who he was. From the age of 25 on, Lincoln continuously tried for leadership roles within the Republican Party with much success. He held various governmental roles to include floor-leader for the Whig Party, chairman of the finance committee, and played a leading role in organizing the new Republican Party in Illinois (Library of Congress). Unlike most up-an-coming politicians, Barack Obama played no significant role in any political causes prior to his own run for presidency. Furthermore, there is no evidence that he participated in any prior Democratic elections before 2008. No one really knew who he was.

He supported the LGBT community's fight for equal marriage equality. Obama also signed the deferred action for childhood arrivals allowing as many 5 million people living in the U.S illegally to avoid deportation and receive work permits. DACA is something Trump has already removed as well. Trump really hates Obama. This helped millions of kids get their education to become someone in life. Their home country isn't the U.S and they're still willing to help out this country. Now I call that true patriotism. This helped provide work authorization and a two-year reprieve from deportation to nearly 800,000 unauthorized immigrants who came to the United States as children. DACA protects immigrants, and immigrants make this country as

When they both started to talk, Trump started to talk about the problem of buzz feed with Russia and just started to talk about his problems. Obama started with some dad job jokes which enlightened the crowd followed by more cheers. Even though both were live they did what they mostly do in their speech. When Obama spoke later in the speech he said "My fellow americans" this shows how he doesn't care just about himself he cares about his country. Trump just kept talking about how there are many bad things in the US and how he gives thanks for the people who helped out his

Picture this: a cold January day in Washington D.C, the first African American president is about to be inaugurated with a combined audience of over 38 million looking to be inspired.

Inauguration day marks a new beginning. Every four years, Americans officially welcome a new president. Each president has to address the plans, goals and ideas for the future. Therefore, the inaugural speech is meant to be an emotional and hopeful ceremony for all Americans. The inaugural speech sets the tone for the president’s first weeks in the white house. Ideally this speech will encourage those who voted to believe and trust that the right leader is in the office. On January 20, 2017 Donald Trump gave his inaugural speech and through the use of hyperboles, repetitions, and metaphors he aimed to unify the nation and give hope for the future.

Both of these presidents, former and current, have opinions on what America should be moving towards, to better the country. These presidents have both done their fair share for this country already, though Trump has only been in office for a year, while Obama has been in office for a full term, then was re elected for another. They both, though, like all things, have many similarities and differences, these things are likely affected by their party, and mindset, along with their personality. For instance, Obama is apart of the Democratic party, while Trump is apart of the Republican party, making their outlook on America and things like taxes and abortion, different. Differences

Primarily, Obama’s victory speech was about his winning the election for the office as the president. President Barack Obama delivered his speech on Nov. 4, 2008, in Grant Park, Chicago. The speech was a powerful, positive, and persuasive, also it inspired the audience. The main point of the speech is to cover three important pictures at the beginning, he drew a comparison between the past and present, by answering a rhetorical question “If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible” (Obama 685). Subsequently, he stated the gratitude for his running mate Joe Biden, campaign manager and his lovely family. Also, Obama was formal and candid to describe the catastrophic financial crises that happened in 2008 and the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. At the end of his speech, he painted a big picture of the upcoming change, by giving a comparison of women rights to vote and slavery between hundred years ago and now, also by mentioning and inspiring the younger generation. He also advised the American people to keep moving into the future and the adapting to the progressive movement theme.
