Today, Barack Obama spoke in Washington D.C. to address the first half
of his policy for dealing with poverty entitled Changing the Odds for
Urban America. The senator will be following this speech with another
one in the coming weeks outlining his rural agenda for poverty.
Obama's poverty agenda is similar to his recent energy policy plan
insofar as that it draws from elements of other plans that worked on a
state or community level and then applys it to the national level. He
then injects the plan with new ideas that look beyond the narrow
specifics of previous partisan attempts. That is exactly the kind of
plan Obama's urban agenda encompasses.

This is in direct contrast to the current administration's common
practice of taking elements of plans that DIDN'T work on state or
community levels, such as No Child Left Behind, or abstinence-only sex
education, and applying it to a national, or even international level.
