In other words, Barack Obama referenced himself more than school, education, responsibility, country/nation, parents, and teachers combined. And to think that people accused Obama of self-promotion!

I guess I'm not surprised that your word count missed the fact that he used the word "you" 107 times...almost more than all the above...referencing his audience of students.

But that's OK...the whole thing became a non-issue as predicted.
