You watch a couple of Dean speeches ...

2003 Democratic National Committee Winter Meeting:
This is the real Dean. This is not the "media-distorted" version of Dean. :)

By the way, you will hear the "Confederate Flag" comment in context and you'll have no idea why the media made such a big deal about it, especially since he had been saying it for months and no one complained. You'll even hear a mini "Dean Scream" in this speech - and you'll see it's not a display of anger or psychosis, but of passion. Dean Speech 2/21/2003
-- Dean is introduced at about 1:57
-- Dean's speech begins at about 1:59

2003 Linn County, Iowa Democratic Fundraising Dinner:
The speech has the same talking points as the other one, but he goes into a lot more detail.
Dean Speech 1/19/2003
-- Dean speaks first

These early speeches are what inspired us. These speeches are why we supported him when the rest of the country was saying "Howard who?" These speeches are why we believe in Dean and always will. :)
