Obama's speech was nice, but pretty standard.
I think Nikki Haley's speech was more interesting, since she chose to actually criticize her own party, which is extremely rare and very welcome. It might hurt her career, but I applaud her for speaking out.

We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will yet swell the chorus when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.

Did he say I once in the portion you quoted? Serious question.
Just admit you're consumed by hatred and thus have shelved all normal methods of linguistic interpretation. It's cool. That's not new in politics.
