I think the most powerful moment is when someone yells I cant hear you and President Bush turns that into a valuable moment by saying "I can hear you, the whole world can hear you, and the bad guys who knocked down this building can hear you". I think moments like this are effective because it makes people feel better and calm down.

I think that was a real primary concept too. He made the point that this(9/11) tragedy was not going unnoticed

He is supposed to be positive, he is the president.

Yes I think moments like that are effective because it shows that the president didn't really know what to do in that situation. Many family's or family members were killed.

He used repetition and while he did this he makes the points of being almost...vengeful, and being calm about it
