Introductions

Here's a pet peeve of mine: introductions used as a platform for the host to push their own issue. Well, isn't that what the speaker is doing? Why else were they invited to speak?

The best introductions I ever heard were by General John Allen, who could made his best effort to make everyone he introduced sound like a national hero.
