“Gov. Martin O’Malley speaks at 50th anniversary of the March on Washington.”
I’m not trying to offend or anything but Governor O’Malley’s speech sounded more like a campaign spot, for someone who is I don’t know, considering running for a certain political office in 2016. Rather than speaking about I Have a Dream, the March on Washington and what this movement is about. The Governor seemed more interested in political goals that he still has and wants to accomplish.
The 50th anniversary of one of the most, if not most important, at least civil political event in American history, where you are talking about a group of Americans who were literally there to make the case for their constitutional rights, is not the opportunity to try to make your case for running for President in 2016.
The 50’s anniversary is an opportunity for you to talk about an event and how important it is to you personally, as well as argue why it’s so important to in American history. This is not a State of the State where you say now is the time for this, that, the other thing, and something else, and now is the time to do all those things.
