School Of Public Service - SDI, July 2017, Office Of the Speaker

In the late afternoon of July 20, the SDI School Of Public Service reached the Office of the Speaker Of The US House. This was something of a reunion, for the Speaker, Congressman Paul Ryan (Republican, WI), had as a college student taken a course that Dr Arminio had taught at American University. The course was titled, appropriately enough, "Political Rhetoric"! Needless to say, the then young Mr Ryan was a very good student. Now, here we were in the Speaker's Office. The man briefing us is the Speaker's Communications Director, Mr Michael Ricci.
