    Your voice is very clear, slowly, and that help people to learn English easier to understand (like myself), just because English is not my native language. It would be very helpful for me. I came to USA from South Viet Nam since the fall of Saigon to Communist in 1975, when I was 25 years old at that time . Since then, I keep learning English whenever I can . It would be too hard for any one who doesn’t speak English. Now I found your program with clear voice, speak slowly and that easily help me better than many others! Thank you for having this program !

    Thank you, thank you , thank you so much Bent's .
    I love politics so much. American politics is brilliant. My English is so poor. I am always worried. It takes a long time to watch a short video. I just watched the beginning of the interview with Vance's wife, and I haven't heard a word of Biden's speech at the DNC. It's all because of my poor English, that me so slowly. This is the first time I have seen such a thoughtful course, what a wonderful lesson! which makes me more confident to learn English well.
    Thank you again, you are loving person, thank you your patience.

    Congratulations Brent!
    You got 5k subscribers in just 12 days. All the videos you did lately are pretty advanced. Good job!
    I have a humble request for you, Brent, If you are doing again a lesson about the "Middle East conflict", you have to have a deeper understanding of that topic before you do that. Otherwise please stay away from those subjects. Any country or organization that embraces the use of violence including the act of terrorism as a means to achieve their goals cannot be justified. Anyway, happy to see your channel's growth. All the best.

    You used present tense to tell what happened in the past, was it because you focused on the truth rather than the time line? Thanks.
