Not only is that speech on YouTube, so are many, many more dating back to around 2013. All are based and built on the idea that geographical and demographic advantages are possessed by certain countries and is how they got where they are today. He is also such an engaging speaker that one doesn't want to miss a single word.

I regret living on the planet so long without being exposed to this kind of geopolitical knowledge, but then it is not uncommon for Americans to be insulated and isolated.
