I love Trump but…
Nobody gives a speech that makes you proud of being an American and run through a brick wall like Ronald Reagan did.

It’s this one


It likely will never be topped. If you’re a patriotic conservative you can’t get better than this speech

Kennedy's inaugural address is very good in content, but Kennedy was legendary in his delivery. If you go back to his prepared speeches they were always very good and he was as good as any Hollywood legend at delivery. Reagan was excellent in delivery as well. A Time for Choosing is very good.

Obama for major speeches was pretty good in his delivery. His writers though were hit and miss on the content end.

However, no one in the last century can come close to MLK,Jr. When it came to soaring oratory.....except maybe his father. I 'very heard MLK Sr. recordings. He was downright inspirational from the pulpit in his sermons

Sycophant opportunist is a pretty fair description of Lake. Very disappointing we can’t do better than Kari Lake for a candidate in Arizona.

Can you imagine Scranton Joe giving a 90 minute speech off teleprompter that went well after midnight?

What makes you say that? People needed motivating before writing was invented.

I bet Thak of the river clan was pretty good at psyching up the boys to go fight the hill people.

Had to think about what you meant, but if you mean before written history, you may be right.

But I don't think that's what Kari Lackofintellect meant.
