Hillary's speech should channel JFK as well as Gore

Hillary's adoption of Al Gore's leadership on global warming at the national press club has already been diaried by dday. I thought the end of the speech was a bit weak in saying we american's can get it done. She should have cnannelled JFK as well as Al Gore . . . more below

Hillary ended with a whimper . . .

...one of my colleagues came to the floor in opposition, and he just basically said: We can't do this. It'll ruin our economy. We'll go backwards. It'll destroy the American standard of living, and I just couldn't believe what was I hearing, and I got up and I went to the floor, and I said, "Since when have Americans become so fatalistic that we go around saying we can't do it, we can't do it? That is not the tradition of our country. We can do it. We just need a commitment to do it, and we need the leadership in both the public and the private sectors to get it done." And I believe that we definitely can get it done.

the last part should be linked to JFK's moon speech . . .

...Forty-five years ago, our security was facing another great threat from foreign shores, and Americans were faced with another great technological challenge. On that day a democratic president stood before the American people and told this nation that we could put a man on the moon by the end of the decad, and spurred by his great leadership and the hard work and ingenuity of millions of Americans, we put a man on the moon. I say to you, we came together then and Americans can come together again as we face this challenge . . .
