Now, more than ever, we must do these things together, as one nation and one people. 21, IX, a
23. We understand that outworn programs are inadequate to the needs of
our time. 31, XII, b24. So we must harness new ideas and technology to remake our
government, revamp our tax code, reform our schools, and empower our citizens with the skills they need to work harder, learn more, reach higher. 32, XII, b25. That is what will give real meaning to our creed. 35, XII, b
He tells the people the need of new ideas and technology in order to repair things. He also tells that new ideas and technology will improve the skill of citizens so that they can work harder, learn more, and reach higher. The result which Obama promises for people‘s participation is the realization of the founding creed which is the ideal common good that Americans dream to achieve. Thus, Obama entice the people with this idealism in order to do as directed by the government by approving the government‘s agenda. In the thirteenth paragraph, he tells again about the American‘s belief in the basic measure of security and dignity. This is just other word to say what has been said in The Declarations of Independence of The United States.26. We, the people, still believe that every citizen deserves a basic measure of security
and dignity. 36, XIII, b 27. We must make the hard choices to reduce the cost of health care and the size of our deficit. 37, XIII, b He knows that this notion is historically powerful in itself and is able to persuade people since it is cognitively shared among the society. He links this notion to the dilemmatic problems in the current situation of America which the government must choose between providing the health care and cutting of the deficit. No choice is actually made by Obama to this consideration, but he tells the people that one should not sacrifice today‘s generation in order to save the future generations. He presents this as common good and sends back the choices to the people in which what only possible to do is to work harder and contribute more effort to cover both concerns. The idea of human dignity is exploited to legitimate the Healthcare program. Obama continues to persuade the citizens to agree with the government programs which are the Medicare, Medicaid, and the Social Security. Stated in the fourteenth paragraph, that freedom is not for the happiness of few which means all too must play a part to achieve the freedom by supporting the programs.28. The commitments we make to each other through Medicare and Medicaid
and Social Security, these things do not sap our initiative, they strengthen us. 42, XIV, b29. They do not make us a nation of takers; they free us to take the risks
that make this country great. 43, XIV, b He says that the program does not weaken the country but it provides insurance for the people who have the courage to take the risks in the role they take. He also adds in the fifteenth paragraph further concerns to the risks that may be caused by natural disaster that will danger the people no matter how everything has been made for safety. This aspect is made to be a matter to strengthen his view about how importance is the Medicare, Medicaid, and the Social Security.Parts
