David Mccullough Speech

Suggesting that no one is really special because nothing is truly permanent, in her 2011 essay “Song for the Special” writer Marina Keegan explores the many reasons as to why individuals of every generation seem to find themselves unique, looking at how even at a young age children are exposed to the idea that everyone can make a difference, and then abandons that ideal by revealing the truth that there are so many people on the planet that being “special” is nearly impossible. Her purpose is to reveal just how tiny one individual actually is in the colossal network of the impermanent present day in order to invalidate people’s need to feel special when there is a good chance they may never accomplish anything in the grand scheme of things.

Ninth grader Philip Malloy was suspended for patriotism at Harrison High school for, Singing the the national anthem but, we don’t know the other side.

The Alabama Constitution of 1901 requires the executive to provide a written report of the condition of the state, as well as an estimate of the budget. Though this written report has since come to include a lengthy speech of various legislative proposals the Governor wishes to promote. In this year's State of the State address, Governor Bentley provided a few of his legislative goals, such as a comprehensive prison reform and growing the state education system. Though there is a requirement that a budget is a part of this report, Governor Bentley made little mention to any financial matters. Though Governor Bentley spoke for over an hour in his State of the State Speech, his speech fell short because of the additional focus upon the past, excessive story telling, and the absence of a clear plan for his primary legislative objectives for the remainder of his term.

These three speeches The Declaration Independence, Patrick Henry, and “From Subjects to Citizens”, had basically the same interpretation. In Patrick Henry's speech he mainly was trying to convince the delegates to secede from Britain; moreover, to fight back against them. The Declaration of Independence states that all men are created equal and are entitled to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." "From Subjects to Citizens", people are not always sure they have the power or resources they need to make decisions or to act. The government does not give everybody a chance to express their feeling about what's going on around them.

Can you believe it’s been years since we have come together for a joyous occasion? Let’s catch up with our family, friends and find out what's been happening in their lives.

Upchurch The Redneck. Ryan Upchurch isn’t just your typical average person. Upchurch comes from the backwoods of Cheatham County, TN. Upchurch got his start by posting videos of himself ranting about little things on social media such as Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat, Upchurch would rant about anything, from serious things too little things to put a smile on someone's face. He rants about anything, how he feels, what he thinks about things, from the presidential election, to trending things. He would rant about things in a serious, but, yet comedic way. From expressing how he feels through his videos he also makes music. Although he makes ranting videos to express himself, he also makes music to express himself. He basically talks about coming from the backwoods and not having a hand out, how he worked/s for everything he has, what it likes to have start from having nothing, to having everything. He also started his own clothing line on Redneck Nation. Upchurch’s most famous quotes are “Whatcha think ‘bout that, son?” and “Just Gopher It.” or “RHEC”.

Peter Rosnick is a professor at Mount Holyoke College. He did not say who he was voting for, but he did give a detailed explanation of who he would like to be president.

Hello Shelbey Woodard. Congrats on getting your AA degree. I am 23 years old and have a one year old son. He is the only reason why I am still in school and reaching higher than just an AA degree. I was wondering what is an adult live in care facility provider? In my spare time, I watch the movie Home with my son or go to the park and let him go crazy. Good luck in this class, and I won't give up. Thank you

From Hillary Clinton's emails and her many scandals to Donald Trump's divisive rhetoric, third party candidates have used the opportunity to launch their respective parties into the national spotlight. Now another independent candidate has stepped into the presidential ring, he is selling himself as the republican alternative to the Donald and Crooked Hillary. His name is Evan McMullin.

Sophocles wrote, “I call God to witness that if I saw my country headed for ruin, I should not be afraid to speak out plainly.” Patrick Henry shares Sophocles’s sentiments in his Speech to the Second Virginia Convention, in which he seeks support from his colleagues to save his country from the hands of the English king. In Sophocles’s play Antigone, Antigone challenges a rule in order to lay her brother to rest. Conversely, in Dudley Randall’s poem, “Ballad of Birmingham,” a mother does not allow her daughter to take a stand against the government. It is appropriate to take a stand when the authorities are against the best interests of the majority of the people.

Response To David McCullough's Commencement Speech “You are not special. You are not exceptional.” This what David McCullough had decided to reveal to the Wellesley High School class of 2012, straight out of high school. McCullough had told the fresh ‘adults’ that being extraordinary and adventure cannot find them, but they have to find it.

I find it undeniably true that each individual on this planet is different from the next. Therefore, we each have our own strengths and weaknesses, and characteristics that make us truly remarkable. I may not be the most accomplished high school senior, but I have learned that there is even something exceptional about me, and that comparing yourself to someone else can be a fatal error. I have an optimism that borders on ignorance, but it allows me to dream and hope for the best no matter
