Young people on RSA at some point have to get serious about life and what it truly means to build an economy. Decided not to watch SONA and read it instead in order to avoid the "dreamer" charm the President often utilizes. So here are my thoughts on #SONA2019
Today's speech was the equivalent of having your boss give that Monday morning pep talk about the company of fairing and where he imagines it growing in the future.... But then doesn't tell you what to do for the week. #SONA2019
The whole essence the speech was "We think we have a plan to build an economy. It's comprehensive. But can't tell you all of it. But here are some of the highlights. Btw whilst I have your attention... listen to this pretty poem" #SONA2019
1) Speech by @MTLekota #SONA2019Debate
Last week the President was on this spot here when he invited me among others to join him, I don’t know to what trip.
I do want to say to the President today, I was a bit puzzled that you introduced Rooseveld in all of that you spoke about.

2) I’d like to say that we must come back to South Africa, because I was never in the United States to struggle., we struggled here.- @MTLekota Lekota #SONA2019Debate #SONA2019
3) And I do want to say to you Mr President, that we were invited on a trip of struggle by the preeminent leader of the students of our time, the late Steve Biko who said we must fight the struggle- @MTLekota #Lekota #SONADebate #Sonadebate2019
.@CyrilRamaphosa has clearly studied persuasive speeches.

speak to at least 3 core values from: fairness, freedom from oppression/, care for the vulnerable, loyalty to place/nation, reverence for some tradition / deep authority, common history, shared future or protection from degradation
3. empathize: show you the audience (the poor, but also the active and helpful South African, different sectors of society)
