It has taken me forever to write this blog post! This is primarily because I struggled to find any significant differences between the words used by each president in his inaugural speech. After thinking for a while I realized that there is probably a reason for that. I came to the conclusion that there can’t be that many ways for them to say the same thing. I mean it’s the same job position giving the same speech at the same time of year for the same reason. So wouldn’t you expect their word choice to be similar? This is what I noticed. There were a few differences which I’m sure are a result of changing social norms, but for the most part, they were very similar. (I feel like I said that a lot.) The most common words are government and America which is to be expected since the speech is given by the leader of our government to America. I’m guessing we won’t see any drastic changes to the inaugural speech in the near future.
