I don't really care to get into any of the other stuff, I'm kind of in the middle on most of that (and in some cases I actually agree with you), but it's pretty pathetic to watch you assert that this child was forced to speak with not one ounce of support for your argument beyond the fact that you wouldn't have been able to do it.

No I don't have any proof...
but it is extremely unusual for an 11 year old to ask to do this.... especially one who has been sheltered (to the extreme) from the general public and the media all her life.
I wonder how many 11 year olds have stood up at their Dad's funeral and made a speech to the mourners at his funeral... let alone to thousands of people she doesn't know and to millions watching on tv.
I don't know a single 11 year old that would have the confidence to do that on their own... without someone talking them into it.
