Great video! I just wanted to make bring your attention to the "Capitalism Awareness Congressional Resolution." Recently, I met with Congressman Dana Rohrabacher of Southern California (District 46) in February and submitted a draft Congressional Resolution intended to "Encourage increased awareness of Capitalism and its record of achievement compared to Socialism and Keynesianism." Given the current debate in D.C. and the economic situation worldwide, I hope you agree awareness of Capitalism is needed. The Congressman seemed interested in the idea and to make a long story short, at a follow up meeting, he and I shook hands on an agreement that if I found 3 corporations willing to commit to creating Capitalism awareness among its employees, he'd sponsor the resolution. It took less than a month to fulfill that commitment, with *CEOs T.J. Rodgers (Cypress Semiconductor), Larry Boucher (Alacritect) and Michael Zislis (The Zislis Group) *sending emails directly to the Congressman voicing their support. I'm confident the Congressman will be true to his word, but in the meantime, I'm continuing my quest to contact and find other CEOs who should be celebrated, rather than ridiculed for the wonderful things they do for our country. Hopefully they'll consider voicing their support for the resolution to the Congressman. Creating awareness can be accomplished through activities such as employee education programs (similar to diversity or 401K training), community outreach campaigns, or awareness campaigns integrated into the marketing of a company's products. I want to stress, this resolution would not be a mandate by Congress. It would be a statement of Congressional sentiment and a signal to the corporate community at large that Congress encourages it to trumpet the value of honest, free market Capitalism. FYI, here's a link to the draft resolution (it's only a 2-pager) http://books.kids4biz.com/jp/car2.pdf Anyway, all of the above is just an FYI. I'll keep you guys posted on how things go with the resolution. If you ever want to contact me, feel free to do so at my email address or cell, 310-704-6403. Keep up the great work! Best Regards, Michael Malgeri

What a terrific book of tips and teheciquns for speaking publically. Even better, it's full of quotes from the world's leaders over the centuries. Mr Humes even explains the cause of some more recent speech failures of conservative politicians. He really makes this an enjoyable book, one I hope to refer back to for years to come.
