Mike Huckabee's Detroit Economic Club Speech - Jan. 11, 2008

This is one of the great speeches of our time.

[Watch it here - without even having to leave this blog - see the 5 part YouTube below.]

You MUST watch this regardless of who you're voting for or even whether you're voting.

I love writing speeches and public speaking, and some even say that I'm good at it.

But, this is the kind of speech I dream of giving (or writing). Every idea, every value, every theory, every comment, every inspirational moment rings true for me as a person and as a United States citizen.

People like me dream of writing or giving speeches like this. It brought tears to my eyes - which last happened when I was reading Lincoln's 2nd Inaugural Address at his Monument.

So, whether you like Mike or not, whether you've decided that you're voting for a different Republican or a Democrat, or even if you're not even sure what a primary is and wasn't even planning on voting this year . . . listen to this speech.

Take a moment to be inspired. Take a moment to be reminded of America's greatness - and of the inherent Greatness in each of us.

Obviously, there's a lot to comment about in this speech about the political issues (& why I think Mike's not only right - but that he's right on point!), and I'll do it in later posts.

Oh, and if you want to compare, or remember, or read for the first time, the awe-inspiring words of Lincoln, see above.
