I just watched two of the best public speakers of the century tonight

Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.
Wow.
Their ability to communicate ideas to a crowd or TV audience is remarkable.
How is Romney even still in this race?
Oh yeah, the media lies.
Can't wait for Tuesday!
GOTV!

Bill can break it down; Barack can pump it up. Nobody explains politics better than Bill Clinton. Nobody is more inspirational than Barack Obama.

Is there any doubt that Obama is one of the most effective public speakers in the history of recorded sound?
Clinton is gifted but Obama is blessed.
Roosevelt, Kennedy, Churchill ... Obama is in that league.

..............I MUST include the Keynote Speech at the 2004 Democratic Convention, and the 2008 Acceptance Speech. Both give me chills.

He really is as good a public speaker as we've seen in a generation.
