very soon people will realise his speech is merely a speech..and beautiful speech do not change the world

So did Churchill

And Franklin D. Roosevelt

...and both helped to defeat the Axis Powers, with Stalin. Speech-making may only be speech making if the leader is nothing. But judging from past history, if a leader cannot inspire his/her people, then he wouldn't go very far either.

Churchill and FDR are two examples who had to rely on their public charisma to inspire people to keep on fighting, even though sometimes they were down and out.

In chinese, we say - 时势造英雄 or 英雄造时势.
Obama had everything going for him, 时势造英雄 and Obama is the man of destiny.

时代造就了英雄,英雄创造了时代。时代就像天幕,英雄就像流星

Right now, in Singapore we see no end to PAP dominance of SG politics. Where is the opposition party or leader to challenge PAP. No, right now but when the time came for PAP to fall from power ( like all dynasties, regimes in history, nothing is forever ) - 时势 will 造 a 英雄 for the 时代. The leader is destined to rise to take his place in history.
