Obama Vs. Romney: Speeches at RNC & DNC

 Distinct differences could be clearly seen throughout both candidates' speeches. In his speech, Romney continuously detailed the negative aspects of Obama's future plans for the country and previous presidential decisions. As he went further into his speech Romney explained how he planned to create 12 million jobs and become a far more energy independent country. The Republican candidate also addressed how Russia was our number one enemy and not Iraq, which poses questions about his position on the troops stationed in the middle east. Throughout his speech, Romney spoke about creating a successful and bright future for America, but did little to explain what he would do in order to make this happen.

In his speech, Obama spoke to the people about his strong passion for education and the opportunities (ex. The Dream Act) that he would give to any American in search for a brighter future. He plans to set higher educational standards now in order to create smarter and more effective individuals in the future  The president also addressed the issue of renewable energy and explained to the people that research for more effect modes of clean energy was essential for the creation of new jobs and as a way to control global warming. Furthermore, Obama went on to say that his opponent was lacking in the foreign policy skills that are crucial for successful relationships between countries, specially in times of war.
