The Crisis of Confidence speech, Jimmy Carter 1979. Just read this for the first time and it is a pretty odd speech — where he gives these quotes of people, unattributed, often negative about him, I found odd — though you could argue there are prescient bits.
I haven’t seen the video of it, but I’m guessing — probably incorrectly, I will say — that the problem with this speech was: people were mainly concerned about concrete issues of inflation and energy, while he was trying to make it about something more abstract, a crisis of confidence.
