"The Voters are beginning to hope that we can do something different, do not let anyone tell you that nothing can change this time is possible. "(Nick Clegg, April 22, 2010)
(Analysis of the performance of Nick Clegg, the Liberal candidate in British elections, during the debate on April 22, 2010: The morning of France Culture, Press Release, 2010-04-23)
The journalist of France Culture, quoting a colleague in the English press: "There is in this third providential man, a fascinating part of the press, the air of change, a change in the U.S.. As proof, his concluding sentence: "Voters are beginning to hope we can do something different , do not let anyone tell you that nothing can change , this time it possible." "
Clegg's words summed up his speech, since it contains no fewer than four words without meaning, and well in tune with the times: hope, different, change, possible. As it should, Clegg is as if the words that come from his own mouth came from the voters: voters are beginning ... do not let anyone tell you .... There are the two basic principles of handling, as old as time: 1. Believe in our party that we defend the idea that comes from him, 2. Do not tell him everything in the flooding wave-sounding words and positive consensus.
translation of the sentence Clegg:
"Dear voters,
Logic would I am presenting my program of government, and that you check if this program is what you want. But what exactly do you want? Not only I do not want to know, but you probably know not yourself. The best way is for the benefit of both parties, that I deliver a speech devoid of substance but full of impressions. This can save the trouble and I think that to get involved. "
