In the prepared version distributed to reporters, Obama’s speech ends this way:

“America is going to survive. We won’t forget where we came from. We won’t forget what happened 19 months ago, 15 years ago, thousands of years ago.”

That’s not what he actually said. Before the audience at Hampton, Obama ends his speech this way:

“America will survive. Just like black folks will survive. We won’t forget where we came from. We won’t forget what happened 19 months ago, or 15 years ago, or 300 years ago.”

Three hundred years ago. It’s a reference the audience understood.

We won’t forget what happened 19 months ago, or 15 years ago, or 300 years ago.

Perhaps during the debates, Mr. Romney will have an opportunity to ask Mr. Obama what happened 300 years ago that he won't forget.
