80 year old Ted Sorenson has been the best "small name" speaker of the DNC convention so far. He was the head speech writer and advisor to John F. Kennedy Jr.. He also wrote several famous and profound lines that are so often quoted today. He gave a powerful talk and got no coverage from mainstream media. I've been looking for a you tube video of his talk and it hasn't been posted yet.
Here's the little poem he read at the end of his speech though:
We have the man we need at last
To embrace the future and not the past
And dispel eight years of pain and shame.
Barack Obama is his name.
Call the roll.
Harry Reid was a close second. A very close second. Regardless of your party affiliation, watching this talk with all the knowledge, facts, and integrity it reflects, he will knock your socks off. 9 minutes of absolute necessary education:
