Jon Favreau, President Barack Obama's former Director of Speechwriting, gave an inside account of the craft of campaign and presidential speechwriting. Moderated by Harvard Kennedy School professor and CNN correspondent, David Gergen, the Forum provided a detailed account of the conception and ideas behind many of Obama's pivotal speeches and a deeper perspective into the President's personality.

The Apprentice became the Magician. Favreau's mastery of words sets the touchstone for excellence. "Learning the voice" is highly under-rated and Favreau nails it. Interesting view. Thanks.

That was freaking awesome!!! I'm looking forward to when he writes a book and/or screenplay about his time working with Obama. They will be studying this guy a hundred years from now.

I figure you’ve kept up with him in recent years?

My goodness. I’ve heard Favreau speak elsewhere, and he’s good, but Gergen asked some very good questions to give perspective. Wonderful chat!

I've really appreciated his "honest" summation of President Obama as a person. Many of the things he said about him is what I've assumed or suspected. It is nice to have my personal opinions confirmed. :-)

This was wonderful, but the volume levels are way too low when Favreau and Gergen are talking, but then it gets really loud during the Obama speeches.

Jon was a great speechwriter for the 2008 campaign, but sadly-Obama's speeches as President haven't been very memorable. I suppose the only one was the Tuscon Arizona funeral speech. Kennedy's Sorenson set a very high bar.

apope06 Fortunately that is one opinion that merits very little recognition or acknowledgement.

@wambuinjuguna2667 7 лет назад

This is incredible. Jon really bring out the world of a speechwriter and the beauty in the reward

Actually once Trump is ejected from the White House people will see that he is a horrible person. Something is seriously wrong with all of the Trumps.
