The Optimism of President Obama

Jan. 30, 2012 - PRLog -- Last Tuesday, Barrack Obama gave his 2012 State of the Union address.  We can ask, was the speech optimistic or pessimistic.  My answer is that it was full of not only full hope, but optimism.  The optimism is reflected in praise for past accomplishments, a focus on new opportunities that arise out of any setback, a call for hard work and effort, and his commitment to keep working hard on behalf of the American people.

Since everyone likes to coin a new word using the name "Obama" in it, I will do the same.  We have for example ObamaCare, and after you read this article you will know what Obamatamism is.
