Obama’s speech in Chicago on his immigration reform, according to the White House transcript, was approximately 4,200 words and lasted 33 minutes. That means that on average Obama used the first person "I" every 46 words or every 22 seconds. Self-centered. President Abraham Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address, in which he presented his understanding of the moral significance of the Civil War, was 696 words long. In that speech, Lincoln used the first person singular once. Other-centered. Therein lies the difference between Lincoln, a leader, and Obama, a narcissist!
