Most of the best known oraters have taken classes or have some sort of formal training in oration.

I actually have A LOT of experience with public speaking. I've giving homilies/sermons in church have been elected/appointed to several school related and other positions etc.

When writing a GOOD, EFFECTIVE speech, just make sure of one thing... could YOU sit and listen to your speech. If someone else delivered YOUR speech, what would happen? Would you vote for yourself? Would you get totally bored? Write an honest speech that would make you want to vote for someone and would keep your interest!
