One secret to public speaking is knowing your audience. In Somerset, it never hurts to invoke the name of John Sherman Cooper.
That s what Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron did in his visit to the Somerset-Pulaski County Chamber of Commerce s monthly membership luncheon on Tuesday. Like Cameron, Cooper was an attorney, with time at Harvard Law School and a longstanding practice in Somerset before beginning his political career. As a U.S. Senator and later Ambassador to East Germany, Cooper became one of the nation s most distinguished statesmen in the second half of the 20th century, leading to his statue on Somerset s Fountain Square.
