I think it is not Sam's deafness that is the problem, it is others people's lack of understanding and patience.
Perhaps Sam going in as a role model is to try and make people more aware of the fact that deaf people are not stupid.
Not being able to hear people talking when he was at the age none deaf people learn to talk makes it very difficult for him to speak exactly the same as others. He does remarkably well considering.
