Young lady? Well done. This is a demonstration of how some adults have never grown up and are exposed by our young, intellegent youth of the future. I wish you the best and I'm sure you will speak up and work on behalf of your community from a TRUTHFUL perspective.

Very well said, your comprehension and insight of things around you are well beyond your years. Alot of adults dont have the intellect and grounding to express themselves as well as yourself! Good job!

Young lady, you are on the right track and I pray for your journey. : D I felt that you were right to call that woman on her behavior and congratulate you on YOUR restraint. I know you were frustrated by her double talk and must say, you have now joined the American people in feeling the very same way towards all of our politicians. lol However this woman was quite rude and her attitude is what cost her time in her new home. Your attitude will give you streets paved in gold. In HIS name : D

As a dad that loves his daughter as deeply as I feel your dad loves you allow me to say I feel aw struck to have noticed this vid only seconds after leaving a comment on the vid titled "Monica Conyers Debates with an 8th Graders".

It's been a Godly type gift to me on my birthday (even though I'm an agnostic) to have watched your vid.

My daughter is now in her 20s & you remind me of how & why she is successful today.

Your parents deserve nation wide Respect & Attention.....

1love

@ririsoosoo So maybe it isnt her own words.

I was reading about the Synagro scandal involving Conyers and followed a link here. Keiara, I hope you get into a good college eventually and keep that great outlook on life in whatever career you choose. Conyers was trying to push your buttons, but you kept a cool and respectful head. Best wishes to you young lady.

@Suprememessage so what?

[chewbaca1989]

Jeez, a brilliant kid. Nuclear family = good results, and Socialism fails. Good luck to her Detroit needs more kids like her.

Detroit is almost dead. It is dying because of dishonest, corrupt people. But out of it's ashes will rise people like you. You will go places in this world as long as you don't lose your integrity and honesty. Good for you Keiara. You are wise beyond your years.
