Campaign Speeches

This week we are discussing what is the most important campaign speech (and I got the list from US News and World Report because I needed to narrow it down as I’m sure many of you have different speeches you might add in (you can always add in your pick as a comment)). Now in case some of you don’t recognize a particular speech, I’m including links to a full text version of each speech for your use in deciding your choice.

• Lincoln's Cooper Union Speech
• Bryan's Cross of Gold
• FDR's New Deal Speech
• Nixon's Checker Speech

Have fun!
