That's what I meant earlier when I said my head was spinning with all
the vmemes in that speech.
What's interesting isn't so much that he talks with the blue vmeme. It
is that in the same breath he ascends through orange and green. So
there he is talking about a problem facing the country and the world,
and he brings in every vmeme to bear on it.
It works like this: say you're CEO and have to give a speech to your
large workforce. Here's how you can do it:
This company is built on hard work, a long tradition of quality and
excellence, delivering competitively to the market, innovating
flexible new solutions, made with years of experience and
craftsmanship, respecting the relationships with our clients, whom we
regard as friends and partners, and the insight that our people have
their own lives and families, which we respect, and welcome.
Although if you spread gently throughout a 20 minute speech it will be
less awkward sounding.
So Obama can have very wide appeal, and each group can overlook the
other stuff in his speech which ordinarily would send them screaming,
like all the references to God. And more God. And did you notice the
God?
The real question now is whether he can walk all those colours as well
as he talks them, especially under stressful and difficult situations.
