Love in any language

I was thinking about the way we speak.  I am bilingual, and possibly trilingual if i consider that i also speak house language- basically broken English, or casual English (I ain't no English teacher, so i doh fink my english is broken) And its all different.

Then i think about speech readers, like Martin Luther King Jr, and FDR, and possibly Obama, people who can say word phrases that we remember, such as "I have a Dream,...." and "There's nothing to fear but fear itself.." and "Yes we can.." 

And then there are those people who try not to be pretentious in the way they make speeches like Bill Clinton, and Sarah Pailin. 

And then I think what went wrong with the latter?
