    Obama on small business -- like you haven't seen him before


    Posted at 2:24 pm

    Remember last week when we posted about President Obama's speech on why small business owners should back his health care plan?

    We posted video and the text of the speech along with links to some outside perspective, but here's one thing we didn't give you: a more visual perspective on what Obama was talking about.



    What you're looking at is the text of Obama's speech last week after it was run through a word-processing system at Many Eyes. The words that appeared most often are biggest.

    Naturally, the words business, businesses, small and insurance are going to come up often. But it's sometimes eye-opening to see what other points the president is stressing once his rhetoric is boiled down to nothing but single words.
