The Teleological Discourse of Barack Obama, by Richard Leeman, provides an in-depth analysis of President Barack Obamas speeches and writings to explain the power of the 44th presidents speaking. Highly regarded for his eloquent and inspiring rhetoric, Obama is often compared to Roosevelt, Kennedy, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. However, Leemans study shows that Obamas teleological philosophy and discourse more closely resembles Ronald Reagans rhetoric.
