An amazing speaker.
Still the most amazing speaker I have ever heard, President Barack Obama.

1. There was never any doubt, except from those who were mesmerized every
time GW took time out to make word salad.

2. He had me at the 2004 Democratic Convention speach.
Both mr. max and I looked at each other and said, this man should run for President.

5. Bill Clinton is just as good if not better
And in terms of extemporaneous speech, there's no contest.

6. Bill Clinton is an excellent speaker as well.
I was in a live audience behind him once at a campaign speech and it was pretty impressive.

7. He is amazing, I just wish he looked into the camera
He was looking at the crowd, connecting. Monday I saw John Stewart and he looked directly into the camera knowing his real audience was on the teevee machine. He connected with the crowd before and after the taping. A lesson to learn for Obama imho to make his points really sink home.
