Once when he was a little boy, Abraham Lincoln (Abe as he was called
then) and his friend Dennis Hanks heard the speech of a campaign orator at a
political meeting. However, they did not find the orator’s speech impressive. Dennis
told Abe that the latter was capable of delivering a far better speech. This
prompted Abe to stand on a dry goods box present nearby and address the
gathering. The speech was so impressive that everyone listened in rapt
attention and gave him an applause at the end.

When little Abe and Dennis Hanks attended a political party meeting, they did not understand the statements of the speakers.
Dennis told Abe that he could sketch a better speech than this speaker, and then Abe decided that they will deliver their speck on a dry goods box.
Afterward, their speech was appreciated by the crowd, and they got the confidence through the massive positive responses.
Sp through this story, we can see that everyone have some political credibility.
But they cannot able to showcase their credibility due to lack of confidence.
Lack of training and lack of encouragement.
