1. Ted left us way too soon

I miss him.

[Peregrine Took]

2. This is one of my all time favorite speeches. What an orator.

Speaking off the cuff and with passion and power is so critical to advancing your cause yet so many now eschew this manner of speaking in favor of a style more sedate and lawyerly.

Even reading their speech - the worst ever if you ask me!
Look at your audience - not at your notes!!

Speak right from your heart with conviction.

That would be my advice to anyone promoting an issue.

3. Wonderful speech. It's so sad that it is still applicable today. nt

[RANDYWILDMAN]

4. Minimum wage is the modern capitalist enslavement

People are not tied to the these jobs but they don't have a ton of choices of where else to go.

It's so sad that we won't pay a livable wage ?

We have yet to see a maximum wage for CEO's and traders and like ?

Minimum worth is disgusting term to value a person's worth !!!!
