I've posted this on a couple of Fred-threads now, and the silence has been deafening. The videos, in my opinion, clearly reveal someone who is NOT ready for prime time. The shuffling of notes, the looking down, the hemming and "uh"s and "um"s make for painful viewing.

The gap between Fred's hype and actual reality will close as we see more of him at events such as this. I defy anyone to watch video #1 and find anything impressive about the performance.

What I saw was a man answering questions asked of him while he was visiting some policy wonk think tank in London. Is he supposed to give an Oscar caliber performance every time he’s in front of a mic??? Should he employ special effects and an orchestra for soundtrack??? Yawn. Come back when you have a real gripe.

Thanks for the link. The acoustics were not conducive to understanding all his words, but very clearly could count the “uhs” on each segment ie: #1 = 44 uhs, #2 = 39 uhs, #3 shorter segment - 9 uhs, and #4, another shorter segment - 11 uhs.

So that’s, uh, all I, uh, have to say about, uh, that. :)
