THE CONSUMATE POLITITICIAN – MAUI'S WIZARD & MAGICIAN
VIRTUOSO ORATORY SKILLS & EUPHONIOUS ARTISTRY
Oratorical Style
Greek democracy relied heavily on this mode of public governance, and the rhetorical
forms associated with successful oratory were well-studied by the Greeks and the
Romans. Political speeches throughout history have relied on oratorical methods.
An interesting feature of speech in this mode is that, because the speaker is trying to
mold the audience into one body with one voice and one governing view, the style of
speech often has features you associate with music. The speaker will use rhythm and
repetition in a way that invites participation and agreement from the audience. This
isn't a form that is well suited to complex arguments; the style is more successful
when it appeals to common truths and public virtues. [Emphasis Supplied]

MAYOR MIKE VICTORINO
ABSTRACT ART
This bizarre art style will confuse you if you are the kind of person who seeks meaning in
everything. Abstract art makes it almost impossible to decipher anything cohesive since
there is not one person, place, or thing to properly understand. Worse still is the fact that
the perspective of the art style abruptly changes if looked from a diferent angle. One
moment you think a sapling is growing into a full grown tree, the next moment these
same colors and caricatures will show a shipwreck. It's very random and completely
open to your interpretation. [Emphasis Supplied]
