Support:Obama speech, references to women not receiving fair pay,works to make the listener emotional.
Source Analysis:Video footage was a big campaign push for Obama, giving the whole nation access to each part of it.The audience was in New Mexico literally, but meant for the entire nation. Funding came from his campaign contributors to shoot the footage, but posting to YouTube is free of charge and very accessible.The video was viewed 13,785 times, with a four and one-half star rating.
Usefulness:Obama addresses the issue of pay inequality and promises that it will be stopped if he is elected.Very useful, because seen after the signing of new legislation, shows the nation he is a man of his word.His actual speech is very meaningful to many families who know what it is like to be discriminated against in the work place because of familial obligations.He does not defend any argument against there being pay equality.
