EXPLANATIONS BELOW

Concept note-1: -This is our time, to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids; to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace; to reclaim the American dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth, that, out of many, we are one; that while we breathe, we hope.

Concept note-2: -The central theme of President Obama’s inaugural address was a call to restore responsibility-both in terms of accountability in Washington and the responsibility of ordinary people to get involved.

Concept note-3: -“Yes, we can” is a popular repetition in President Obama’s speeches. This phrase shows his political power and strong authority to address the weakened era of the US to inspire and motivate citizens towards progress and prosperity.
