As a legislative consultant and lawyer, I have attended many conventions, legislative sessions, meetings and political rallies and have heard speakers at these events. However, I have never heard a more sincere, heartfelt and meaningful speech than that made by Mr. Spielman. This was definitely the most moving and inspirational presentation I have heard.”
