One of my first videos was about the first season of AGT. Well, I decided to rant again, but this time about the results. Tell me what you think. Do you agree with me? Personally, I think you should, but I'm curious to see what other people think.

Personal Note:
I will say that his winning the competition is yet another testament to the fact that Americans still hold true to the "American Dream," perpetuating--and perhaps creating--our "rags to riches" stories by upholding the idealism that opportunity is available to all hard-working, normal folks. The "American Dream" has become a trope so engrained in the psyche or Americans that we are utterly devoted to maintaining its optimistic promise, regardless of its relative unattainability or realistic limitations.

Of course, after saying all this, I personally find that the idea of the "American Dream" keeps the futile workings of every day from depressing me, even though I am highly skeptical that it even exists in the incarnation we all believe it does.

  • An absolutely delightful and entertaining video, especially in context with your more info comment. I find you to be exceptionally good at vlogging. SNL needs you to do one for them each and every week. No doubt, you would become a must see Monday morning water fountain item of conversation each and every week. Best of luck to you in the futrue.

  • You can't really complain about the results when you didn't put in the effort to vote, it's just being hypocritical. Most likely you didn't and it depends who watches the show and who actually votes. This is for a vegas and I'd never pay to see anyone of them but when I did live in vegas I didn't see many ppl rushing to go see the opera at the casino, she belongs somewhere better. Who has a better chance of making the producers money??? Probably an average country singer.
