“You know, you have to start with hope...you don't get anywhere in this country without hope. So it's a necessity. What Barack says is that people have to understand hope isn't just blind optimism. It isn't passive. It isn't just sitting there waiting for things to get better. Hope is the vision that you have to have. It's the inspiration that moves people into action...There are more people engaged in this political process in this year than we've seen in my lifetime. And it is all because of hope because people believe in the possibility of something unseen.” PeopleKnowsYearsBelieveCountryInspirationActionMovingPoliticalWaitingProcessVisionPossibilitySittingOptimismBlindLifetimeBarackGet BetterEngagedPassiveUnseenWithout HopeBlind Optimism Author:Michelle Obama
“And uh, so, I'm running for a reason. I'm answering this question here and the answer is, you cannot lead America to a positive tomorrow with revenge on one's mind. Revenge is so incredibly negative. And so to answer your question, I'm going to win because people sense my heart, know my sense of optimism and know where I want to lead the country. And I tease people by saying, "A leader, you can't say, follow me the world is going to be worse." I'm an optimistic person. I'm an inherently content person.” PeopleKnowsWorldWantMindHeartPersonsCountryReasonHumorRunningAmericaPoliticalWinningAnswersLeaderTomorrowMy HeartNegativeOptimismRevengeOptimisticTeaseFollow MePolitical HumorOptimistic Person Author:George W.
