Obama's book title is "The Audacity of Hope."

Edwards had a speech during the 2003 (December) presidential season titled, "In Defense of Optimism."

Jesse Jackson(Keep Hope Alive)

Dems think Hope is the Answer. You do not really have to
do anything---Just Hope .(Sarcasm)

Who stole what. If we are honest--Hope Bit started with
Jesse. Maybe others can trace it farther back in History.

most of the great leaders in our past stressed those ideas.

Ha! Even Bush is using that language on Iraq right now.
