"Quotable Quotes" from Reagan, JFK and GW Bush compared to B Obama.

    Here is an interesting assignment.  I asked myself,  "Just what has Obama  ever said that was a 'quotable quote,' "  something that was profoundly stated and  memorable. I couldn't come up with anything that did not sound silly.   Here is what the internet considers to be Obama Quotable,   but first and for the purpose of illustration,  the following is what  I was looking for: 

Reagan’s quotable quotes

1. A people free to choose will always choose peace.

2. Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today’s world do not have.

3. Democracy is worth dying for, because it’s the most deeply honorable form of government ever devised by man.

4. Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

5. How do you tell a communist? Well, it’s someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It’s someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

JFK

1. Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.
2. The farmer is the only man in our economy who buys everything at retail, sells everything at wholesale, and pays the freight both ways.
3. If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.
4. The basis of effective government is public confidence.
5. Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction.

GW Bush:

1.  Faith crosses every border and touches every heart in every nation.
2.  Government does not create wealth. The major role for the government is to create an environment where people take risks to expand the job rate in the United States.
3.  I believe that God has planted in every heart the desire to live in freedom.
4.  Americans are a free people, who know that freedom is the right of every person and the future of every nation. The liberty we prize is not America's gift to the world; it is    God's gift to humanity.

And now,  Barack Hussein Obama.  I have long claimed that he is not a smart man,  in an authentic sense of the word.  This post is my evidence.  "Profound" is not a word I would associate with anything Barry has to say.  Understand that a key to the "profound" is the ability to speak and think in original terms.  Obama has no such ability.

The United States has gone through the toughest two years economically, as we have gone through since the 1930s.
