Today's Video Link

I'm not embedding this one because it's in four parts and they run, all together, about a half hour. But if you have that half hour to spare, you might enjoy watching Mario Cuomo's 1992 speech at the Democratic Convention…the speech that placed in nomination the name of Governor Bill Clinton of Arkansas to be the next President of the United States. I usually find these speeches boring, insincere and more than a little insulting to the intelligence. I'm sorry though that Mario Cuomo is no longer prominent in the public scene, however. Whatever his merits or shortcomings as an elected official, he was an excellent speaker. I taped this speech that year and still have it on one of those primitive VHS cassettes. I thought it was quite wonderful.

Here's a link to a page with four YouTube videos. Because of its length, it had to be uploaded in four segments so you'll have to find Part One and take it from there.
