Jimmy Carter speech..

His body language in the speech wasn't that bad.. the thing that i noticed that he kept looking down at his little note card things that he had written, also he seemed really tense in the speech, like he was nervous or not prepared..



the problem in America is the lack of confidence.
personally i think that this is still a problem in the US today. we have a lack of confidence today economy, the safeness of the country, and terrorism.



To sum up what carter is saying in this section is that people don't value or strongly respect what they use to for example people use to respect the schools, church's and the government... now he's saying that a persons is not defined by what one does, it by what a person owns, that's saying that a person is valued by the assets that person owns.
today i still think that this has the same effect, as it did back then.. in high school it feels like today that we all have to have the abercrombie and fitch, and hollister, and the top brands to even fit in, and for another example we look at a person and they have a nice car we instantly think that there rich.... and sometimes thats not the case..
