Barack Obama - The Democratic Keynote Address - 2004

Monday, November 10, 2008

One of the most charismatic speeches of all time came from our now President-Elect, Barack Obama in 2004, given at the Democratic National Convention in Boston Massachusetts. Back then, he was on his Senate journey in Illinois. He was given the chance to give the keynote address speech for the Kerry/Edwards ticket. At that time, Kerry was running against a popular incumbent President, George Bush who was seeking his second term as President of the United States. The speech was given on July 27, 2004, a 17 minute speech that sent him to the U.S. senate in a landslide victory in November, 2004. Unfortunately, his candidate John Kerry did not win that night in November, instead Barack celebrated his victory as he won the seat in the U.S. Senate for the state of Illinois in a landslide victory over his opponent.
Not too many people knew that Barack Obama had his future goals set to become President of the United States when he was elected to the Senate. When he announced his candidacy for President of the United States just one year later, noone thought he had the chance to win an election, especially since it was already known, maybe just through rumors, that Hilary Clinton may run in 2008. How could he defeat her in a Democratic primary? Not only did he run against her, he beat her in a very close race to become the Democratic Candidate for President of the United States this year in 2008. Then the ultimate happened, as history was made, in a race to the White House that cost more than any other election in history, an election that most people will never forget. Because of Barack Obama, more people were registered to vote than in any past Presidential Election. Below you can view his keynote address speech given in 2004 that catapulted him into stardom, and just about guaranteed him a seat in the U.S. Senate.
