VS Prime minister

The prime minister, Jyunichiro Koizumi, came to my town and made a speech yesterday. It was his first visit to my town, so many people came to see him. The place in front of Hon Atsugi station was very crowded. It was crowded more than the summer festival of this city, Ayu matsuri.

Before his coming, a lot of politicians made a short speech. It was boring. I think that nobody listened to them.
When they talked about something, I had looked around the place near the station. I recognized many SPs. They looked very strong. They were checking the people coming to listen to the speech. It was very interesting for me to check the SPs' checking.

When a politician was talking, SPs became to look nervous. Soon, eight black cars came to the place. Everybody thought he came. A man got out of one of the eight cars. He was similar to Koizumi, thus some people thought he was the prime minister. But he was not. After that, from another one of the cars, Koizumi arrived. All people were excited very much. Many people tried to take a photo of him by thier handy phone camera.

To be honest, his speech was a little boring. Before his speech, we thought he talks about funny things everytime. But, he is not a comedian. We became bored with his speech soon.
However, he is good at understanding the audience's feeling. He changed his speech tone soon, and began to talk about easy theme; for example, the price of an apple in China! I didn't think his theme selection was not fitted to Prime minister's speech, but thought his speech technique is nice.

In China, Japanese apple costs 2000 yen.
