Right to Work Mr.Mix's testimony
Mr. Mix had a very important message to share and totally muffed it by reading so fast that the average person (and especially Senior citizens) could not totally comprehend his message without listening several times to catch it all. It may be true that he would have been interrupted with many questions from Pro-Union advocates, and he should be able to field those questions and comments. It is my belief that anyone who reads this fast is not interested in communicating the message....just trying to get it on the record. Remember the Citizens must back your cause, we are the voters, Speak to us in a clear, concise manner and one that implies that YOU (the reader)know what you're talking about and not just reading a speech that someone else wrote. I was unimpressed with his delivery and I'm confident most people will not replay this message several times, If you depend on citizens' replaying the message then you will not be able to depend on the citizens support for your cause....You will not have listeners or support for your cause.....wise up!!!!

Right to Work Mr. Mix's testimony
Mr. Mix spoke the truth clearly and concisely on how and why states dominated by labor unions are killing our national economy.
I AM SEVENTY SIX YEARS OLD
I AM SEVENTY SIX YEARS OLD AND HAD NO PROBLEM HEARING OR KEEPING UP WITH WHAT MR. MIX WAS SAYING. I DON'T THINK HE WAS TALKING FAST. IF HE HAD TALKED ANY SLOWER I WOULD HAVE FALLEN ASLEEP. HE DID HAVE TO GET HIS POINT ACROSS IN A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME.
SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE GROUCHY OLD FART WHO FINDS FAULT IN EVERTHING.
I THOUGHT IT WAS GOOD MESSAGE, AND TO THE POINT
Congress Testimony Before Congress
It was difficult to follow Mr. Mix's testimony because he spoke entirely too fast, and did not pronunciate his words.
Pronunskiation
I thought Mr. Mix' english pronunciation ( the word you used should have been "pronounce," not "pronunciate." ) was excellent.
Mark Mix's testimony, not accessible to me yet
Could it very well be that he spoke so fast b/c of the time they allotted him for so much to testify about?
You made up a word in your comment.
I understood
I understood him..concentrate + make sure you don't have other distactions while listening.
Mark Mix testimony
Mark Mix had no choice but to read or talk as fast as possible. If he had testified at a normal pace, he would have been interrupted many times by union protective, fund begging, polititians seeking to please their union masters.
These union goons by proxy didn't want to hear the first word he said in the first place. He does something they cant stand. He tells the truth.

I had no idea how to approach this bferoeÂnow IÂm locked and loaded.
Mark Mix's speech
An excellent dissection of the necessity to speak so fast.
Noted that the comments about his pace ostensibly are half-witted or blind, due to blocking of truths cognitively present in their understanding of his well-founded rationale.
Congress Testimony Before Congress
Mr. Mix, did they give you only one minute for your speach? Honestly, there was no chance for me to follow you what you were talking about, since it was nothing but a patter.
Testimony by Mr. Mix
Please listen again, espcecially to the statistics re each state's per-capita debt.
His message is important and it won't take long to play again.

Mr. Mix's Speech
Thought he had a well-documented and logical presentation that shed much light on where we were and how we got to where we are. I appreciate someone who does their 'homework' and presents it clearly and understandably.
