Obama Who?

The Speech

When Barack Obama launched into his address at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, he was still an obscure state senator from Illinois. By the time he finished 17 minutes later, he had captured the nation’s attention and opened the way for a run at the presidency.

I really didn't know it at the time, but Obama couldn't speak, I mean, he was the type of speaker that would put a crowd to sleep...Until THAT speech. There is a great article about his speaking skills - Obama’s 'Overnight Success' In 2004 Was A Year In The Making
