      I'm sorry to disapoint you, but this speech wasn't "really" unscripted. It was a combination of different points he's given on different occasions like interviews to his book and such. Nevertheless it's powerful and true. You don't have to have genuine thoughts everytime, as long as the message fits the need. And it does.

    • @conancat
      @conancat 5 років тому +44

      ​@@marcus_w0 if he didn't write the speech down, memorized it and recited it, by definition the speech is, in fact, unscripted. He may have prepared notes or gave it much thought or write down bullet points on what he was gonna say as you said he may have said those things during other occasions, and that's coming prepared. Being prepared doesn't mean you have to be scripted. Scripted, no. Prepared, yes.

    He truly is a treasure of Africa yet we all over the world are able to get the very best of this amazing man.

Just as they a have been us since childhood, and will always be, till ,of course, our level of maturity allows for it to fall away like water on a duck's back.He has a golden heart. He has a vision not of this world even though he is in it. Do you love him?

    I grew up in New Zealand at a time when apartheid in South Africa divided our nation. NZ went into battle over a Springbok tour, because half of us didn’t want a racist state’s rugby side playing here. My sister and I had “Free Nelson Mandela” written on our school bags. I was taught and told a lot about South Africa over that period. Trevor put a face on that conflict for a lot of Kiwis. He’s not just a comedian. He’s a teacher and an eye-opener.

    "The ability to laugh at a leader who does not want to be laughed at is one of the core pillars of freedom." Don't know how I would have gotten through Dubya & Trump without the laughs. I suppose I would have moved. South Africa sounds nice.
