Was listening to NPR taking my son to school this morning and they had a segment about Hilary giving the first ever student speech at her Wellesley commencement in 1969. What I found interesting is that there was a speaker before her who was the first ever popularly elected black senator. Apparently in his remarks he advocated incremental change and not protesting. Hilary disagreed and started off her speech with some unscripted remarks. They played the audio of her remarks and I thought she had a really good flow. I found that odd as I feel like she is such a robotic speaker now. Someone that doesn't have the charisma and improvisation that we have seen by so many others this week.

Just thought it was interesting. Here is a link to the story:
