Who Is Worthy of Receiving a Speech of Tribute?
Question by clerick145: Who is worthy of receiving a speech of tribute?
In my public speaking class, we are giving “speeches of tribute.” It can be a person, place, or group. I’m looking for something different than everybody else talking about someone in their family with drug addiction or other cliche stuff. I want something interesting and appealing to most people. Any ideas?

i think it would be interesting to do a speech of tribute to Mao Zedong. he was a terrible dictator of China, however he really changed their culture and instated a lot of ideas that are still there today.
you could also do one to the dorkiest kid in the class, or to you’re teacher just for kicks. that would be good too.

If this is true, it is a repeated crime based on madness. The Russian intervention in December 1979 that meant to save the secular Afghan government and to prevent the neighboring country from turning into a terrorist state was the signal for US Russophobes to considerably increase support to the Afghan Mujahedeen. Results well known, after almost winning war against radicals Soviet army withdrew and now American solders are dying fighting former allies of US Russophobes. It has been repeatedly demonstrated that the drug business provides the financial basis for terrorism and is one of its main factors for its upsurge- said Viktor Ivanov, the head of Russias Federal Service for the Control of Narcotics.
