Thread: Best girl decs

    Default Best girl decs

    Hey guys! Does anyone have some good suggestions for girl decs that could win? Perhaps a speech that has an inspirational story in it or calls for evoking a lot of emotion??

    Hmm well I've seen some Michelle Obama speeches as dec pieces that have finaled before... those are pretty good. Very well-written and great for a female.

    hmmm let me think. i was in NCFL finals in 2008 (I placed 2nd). I have seen many good girl decs before. here are some that I liked:

    "Women's Rights are Human Rights" - Hilary Clinton
    "Rainbow in the Clouds" - Maya Angelou
    "Seven for '07" - Katie Couric (this was a commencement address)
    "And God Was Speaking to Me" - ???
    "Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish" - Steve Jobs (yes, I have seen this done by a girl before, and it did very well)

    Here are some that I have seen on paper that could have potential:

    "Declaration of Conscience" - Margaret Chase Smith

    my team mate did the steven jobs, and it went well for her. I saw a really good elli wiesel speech at a local where i judged.

    Bring on the Cheesecake is good and any speech by a Weiner girl is effective- but these would all be old oratories
