Palabra presidencial is a Wordpress-based blog at Perfil.com that gathers all of Argentine president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner’s speeches since she was sworn into office on December 10, 2007. The blog automatically ranks the words Fernández uses according to their frequency so as to see what themes she recurs into most in her speeches and what her main concerns are. The name “Palabra presidencial” literally means “Presidential word” or, more appropiatly, “Presidential talk”.
To rank words, the blog uses a plug-in for WordPress developed in-house at Perfil.com. Each entry, or post, is a speech and at the bottom of each entry are the words most frequently used in her speeches. On the sidebar, a tag cloud shows a summary of the most frequent words (the cloud can also be accessed here).
