johnny9fingersY'know what, it's still the land of the free and the home of the brave.
But the poet lady was alas a trifle poor: especially when sandwiched between Barry and the Groovy Reverend.
Good quote from the Rev too. Big Bill Broonzy. Well I never.
Barry only gets eight-point-mumble for the speech however: too many slightly off notes, but built it to quite a crescendo with echoes of MLK and FDR and Churchill. Or it could be that Winston, Martin, and Barry, all lean quite heavily upon the cadences of the King James' Bible.
But also it must be said, we are judging Barry by high standards: he does appear to be the best orator of his generation.
Bravo America.
