Truly the best speech of the Republican Party of Virginia Convention held last Friday and Saturday. And that includes Sean Hannity.
What is interesting is how the crowd started paying attention to him. He was speaking while some of the voting for the first round (and only round) was continuing and the vote tabulation was going on. Our Representative and Minority Whip Eric Cantor, former Governor and Senator George Allen and others all spoke before him during the voting process and received a polite welcome. Before he was done, he had the Richmond Coliseum rock'n and a roll'n.

I was there and it was wonderful! Luckily I sat through half of Allen and stuck around, and this young man came on and brought the house down.
Please pass this on, it is one of the best speeches I have ever heard.

Second hand reporting, from an attendee, informs me that this fella is the real deal.

I've sent the original YouTube links to a variety of friends, relatives, etc. across our great land. I'm also trying to learn if RPV has a DVD or other recording. Let's try and make this viral like Holloway, Boyle, etc. What American wouldn't be hit by this speech in at least some manner? Okay, maybe not a...

My daughters boyfriend is a VMI Cadet. He may have liked the speech, but VMI Cadet’s are of the opinion that VT Commandant’s are posers.

Last I checked it was not posted on the RPV site, I was really happy to see it on Youtube!
The last thing I want to see is the snake MSM trashing this young man, I see anything of that nature and my head will explode.

It would be best to keep parts of his story under wraps.
