Re: Poll: Have you ever fallen asleep during one of Dean's Speeches?

Dean is a great speaker. He just needs to be slightly more upbeat.

That said, when I see him speak, personally, I'm locked on. He is like as huge as the president or somebody like that, at least for me. You know how you hear the national anthem and then you get chills when it comes to that one part. (chills in a good way I mean, you know, because it is so important and meaningful) For me, listening to Dean speak is like the same thing. What he says has such deep meaning. This is a man trying to change the world and making a very good attempt at it. If you can't give him a few minutes to hear him out, you don't belong here imho. Maybe it is repetitive but so what? That's why he says the same thing over and over again. The message isn't getting through. Listen to the people who are smarter than you. You can learn from them. I don't think anybody changed the world in their sleep. Get awake and get productive. Wake up to the challenges facing the world. I think that's a good portion of his point.
