1. Very insightful 5 minutes that was. Thanks for posting! She is a treasure.

even if I don't think she's a wonderful speaker, the content she brings is awesome.

Rec'd and bookmarked, to be able to tell the truth about this episode, which is surely to be rewritten.

2. She may have a finger on the pulse

but she is a hopeless speaker and hurts her own message. Naomi, go home, do some voice training and get some Sarah glasses....

3. ? NK is mostly a brilliant author and activist

I've watched her give amazing, mind-expanding and incredibly insightful speeches. Look her up on YouTube, she is a great speaker. I don't think these 3 minutes or whatever do her justice.

Do you have any substantive criticism/reaction to the facts she is bringing up?

4. She is excellent and very insightful

But in the modern era, written words are never enough (Just take a look at what they did to the constitution)... Spectacle malfunction needs to be addressed.
Seriously, she is a dreadful speaker particularly if you consider how potent her material is.

5. Keep in mind that Hank Paulson is worth $700 million

He just loves that 700 number.
