The character is speaking what is in the hearts and minds of people from his generation, which is also my generation. It is difficult to explain and heartbreaking to experience and I am not going to try now except to say there was a time that America was something to be proud of.
As an adult with ADHD I often find myself “fact dumping” - I’m excited to learn how to not be as impulsive and use mindfulness and precision to better navigate my professional interactions with more grace…
I like watching your content. I’ve learnt a lot. But as an American, I don’t appreciate this video. I have a humble suggestion: Please keep politics out of learning. There is already a lot of tension everywhere. Thanks!!

Our goal as laid out in the preamble of the Constitution is "to create a more perfect union". That means build it, not destroy it in favor of some global solution where we don't have a say.
It's apt. Take nothing for granted. Always question. Speak up or else someone else will take your dreams and aspirations.
I've always loved this speech and indeed the whole The Newsroom series. You've done a great rhetorical analysis here. Thanks!

sounds like Obama style
This is BS
Living in an echo chamber?
@@michellestella7477 Nope just calling out all the BS.
@@joeschmoe665 You haven't though. Just said "this is BS". You could explain what the "BS" is and why it's BS...
