Both believed in positive campaigning, and talking about hope, the difference was that Jack came up with something positive to campaign on, a vision for the country first, and then campaigned on it and Obama on the other hand campaigned positive and then tried to cobble together a vision afterwards. The results for thier repective methods speak for themselves.
Well said, Gyor.
