Here’s the final words from the President: “We believe that a little girl who’s offered an escape from poverty by a great teacher or a grant for college could become the next Steve Jobs.”

Due to the praising of Steve Jobs, right now the two Presidential candidates of the United States were all praising the same person and making Steve Jobs as the most popular people being mentioned in Presidential speeches.
President Obama’s opponent from the Republican, Mitt Romney also praised Steve Jobs achievement. He was even quoted as saying that “Business and growing jobs is about taking risk, sometimes failing, sometimes succeeding, but always striving. It is about dreams. Usually, it doesn’t work out exactly as you might have imagined. Steve Jobs was fired at Apple. He came back and changed the world.” Mitt Romney stated.
The co-founder of Apple, Steve Jobs, received a stunning tribute in the speeches of both Presidential candidates. Although Google were not mentioned but they were still ahead with the game and just waited to get a shout-out in 2016.
