or not... but where?).  This isn't notable enough to stand alone.  Even if it could pass the formal general notability test, I don't think it's encyclopedic to have a separate article for every speech by Obama that makes the press.  I guess that means it would fail #NEWS.  However, if there is useful material it could be merged into a more general article about Obama's financial regulation initiative or an even more general article about his economic recovery plans / efforts / legislation / acts.  Obama and members of his administration have been making speeches, issuing statements, and conducting meetings to sell various parts of these plans to legislators and the public, and this speech could be placed in the context of those efforts in an article where they fit.  The "Presidency of..." and "Political positions of..." articles are too general for this to be worth mentioning there, for weight reasons
