RNC Speeches (Politics)

Instead of listening to pundits telling us what they think about some of the important speeches at the Republican National Convention, we think it’s worthy of our time to hear them ourselves. 

Via the magic of YouTube we can hear them all.  Below are the four speeches we believe stand head and shoulders above the rest so far.  (A subjective assessment, of course.)   Others are easily available by searching in the YouTube search bar. 

Ann Romney 

 

Home Run Mrs. Romney.  “This man will not fail.”

Paul Ryan

 

Solid, able, well delivered.  Loved the quote:  “College graduates should not have to live out their 20’s in their childhood bedrooms looking up at the fading Obama posters and wondering when they are going to get going in life.”

Inspiring, superbly delivered.

New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez

 

 
Fantastic.  Loved the quotes:  “My dad wanted me to be able to defend myself.  I carried a Smith & Wesson 357 Magnum.”  And, “Well, I’ll be damned.  We’re republicans!”

Comment:  Like many Americans we have grown very weary of the current administration and its anti-business, pro big government agenda.  We are doing what we can to see that President Obama makes good on one of his 2008 pledges.  He said then that if he could not "turn things around" in three years, he'd be a one term president (like James Earl Carter).  Let's help him keep that pledge.
