Patrick Henry Center makes a tape about Henry’s speech to Virginias house back before the Revolution. His way with words shook the entire crowd up, even the nay sayers worried about their financial future were swayed to support him. Started the ball rolling. It’s excellent. They do an reproduction of that event every month at the Church. Also have a tape of the play available from PHC and shown from time to time on PBS, no joke.

His 1765 noob Stamp Act protests to the House of Burgesses?

He provided the spark of revolution.

My political daydream is for Mike Lee or Ted Cruz to make a similar speech to Obama’s rubber stamp senate. They make the case for repeal of the 17th Amendment.
