Obama Speech puzzle: read, memorised or simply no script?
The Obama speech puzzle. Obama had a written speech which was infact distributed to media houses before he read it. But watching him present the speech, I was alomost convinced he was reading it off his brain, his own head if you like. Is he a master of reading off teleprompters or do you think he memorised it, or just gave a haphazard/unscripted speech? Samson
If look at the video carefully they always have the highlights speech stand on the left and right on but still the way he puts it out is fabulous On Wed, Jan 21, 2009 at 9:56 AM, Maina Samson <esmainah@yahoo.com> wrote:

Most good speakers especially litigation lawyers memories their speeches and when making the speech they rely on points so that it looks as if they are not reading a script. most likely Obama had his "points" on a screen in front of him.

A trick we used in O-Levels to "cram" formulas, make "words" shortened abbreviations for Chemistry, Geo, Bio, Hist, Maths etc.. It works wonders-- only remember "new word" only known to thyself and Hey Presto! UR genius;)
My mum was fully convinced that OBAMA had memorized his inaugural speech until i told her there were telepromters that he was reading from. i think it is because we are used to kibaki reading from a piece of paper without gazing at his audience. obama is not a god at all!
