Celebration of Young Talent - Jon Favreau


It used to be great how at one time we celebrated the talent of young people, but in the last two weeks it has become a "game" to try and attack one young talented guy that I have followed and admired since 2004, it was all started at first by "The Washington Post" and then quickly picked up by all the media and then perhaps the worst example some "Bloggers" who took it up as a personal campaign.

Why did this attack campaign start, well it was down to one photo taken of Jon Favreau with friends out on a relaxing evening, but...... one photo included a cardboard cut out off Hillary Clinton, which allowed minds to run wild! - the photo appeared on "facebook" and then the articles started, though something which frustrates me is this photo first surfaced 11 MONTHS AGO! and it is only now all this petty fuss has started.

I'm still not certain if the campaign is being rolled out by those who are far too PC for their own good, or some feminists who will look for anything to complain about or is it the few who still can't accept that BARACK OBAMA won the election and is now President Elect of the USA

JON FAVREAU was born in Winchester Mass, he successfully won a scholarship to The College of Holy Cross College and it was quickly identified that he was really talented, he gained a degree in political science in 2003. Jon joined the John Kerry 2004 Election campaign team where he started monitoring overnight media but soon he climbed in the team. After the election Jon was approached to join the Obama Senate Team, Jon recalled how the interview was different! but Obama liked what he heard ans saw.

With four years service now, it is evident how well they work together, Barack Obama for me is one of the best current orators and his speeches have reached and touched absolutely millions! - JON FAVREAU has been a part of that success and will do well at The White House as Director of Speech Writing.

Now is the time to Celebrate the Talent of Young People and forget those who try to detract and to embarrass the New Administration - accept Change has Come!

The speeches of Barack Obama have now been published in book form and I can tell you they are well worth reading, whatever your political opinions and beliefs.
