Damn,

...he's good.

“I am here to tell you that hope is real. In a life of trials and a world of challenges, hope is real. In a country where families go without healthcare, where some go without food, some don’t even have a home to speak of, hope is real. In a time of global chaos and instability where our faiths collide, as often as our weapons, hope is real. Hope is what gives us to the courage to take on our greatest challenges, to move forward together.

We live in cynical times, I know that, but hope is not up for debate. There is such a thing as false science, there is such a thing as false promises, I am sure I will have my share of false starts in this campaign. But there is no such thing as false hope. There is only hope.”

Right, too.

Not Obama, though. That's Matt Santos, the fictional Democratic candidate in season six of the West Wing.

And it's right, anyway.
