He's talking a lot and it's all stuff that you want to hear and it gives you hope and he might even believe some of what he's saying. But what about his actions in the past 8 months shows you that he can be counted on to DO what he says he "intends" to?

If he wanted all the things he claims to want, he'd have been working on all the things he's just now thinking about for the past 8 months.
