Giggle. He is the last of his party.
As El Rushbo said he is a blank canvas onto which you can place whatever it is you want to hear.
What makes Obama a good speaker? (He isn’t) MSM says so.
Just like Hillary is the smartest woman (DOH).
You asked What Makes Obama a Good Speaker. Here are some answers found on the web: Your version of American history is disturbing. Your inaccuracies are dumbfounding. So it doesn't surprise me that you are a Obama supporter based on your fictional version of history

Re: Obama is a good speaker but has no message and will never get elected

He is a good speaker but not a leader http://blog.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2007/12/30/obamas_midd...
Of course Obama is a good speaker , he is kin to Dick Cheney

It’s the timbre of his voice, his quasi-impersonation of Martin Luther King Jr. - whom we are taught/conditioned to revere, but this is because of the ideals King expressed. Obama is using a bit of trickery to conjure up those images of King and Kennedy to fool people into thinking he, too, has ideas of merit. Far better for people to read his speeches and judge them for their content.
He’s not a good speaker. His voice is melodious and he is speaking to the short attention span crowd. Peace! Love! Blah! Blah! Blah!
Another thing that helps is that he’s black and you can understand every word that he says. Now there I went and said it. lol
Michael Steele should have run for the nomination. He would have been a great counter to Obama, and 100x better than McCain. Of course being a conservative, he wouldn’t have stood a chance in hell of winning the republican nomination.
What makes him a great speaker is he has great timing, rhythm, flow, pitch, inflections etc. Being a great speaker isn’t always about what you say. It’s HOW you say it. There is no doubt that he has a learned talent for public speaking.
Yes, we can change because change brings hope and without hope there is no change and the change that I will bring with your help is a change that is full of hope, for a change.
What? Have you seen him in debate?
He fumbles and hims and haws all the time.
He is not a good speaker.
Exactamundo!!! Like this: "You see, it's because I have B-E-E-E--EEEEN to the mountain top; and I have SE-E-E-E-EEEEN (shakes head) the promised land." And he sells his vacuous message by that very inflection. It's pretty amazing, actually.
He is a very good speech giver.
“Its HOW you say it.”
I heard a speech of Obama in South Carolina. He spoke slowly and in a distinct southern drawl. Growing up in Hawaii you don’t pick up that kind of accent. So basically he is phony!
What Makes Obama a Good Speaker?
An ignorant audience.
As El Rushbo said he is a blank canvas onto which you can place whatever it is you want to hear.
Yes, which is a great opportunity for Republicans. They need to get out there and define him as the infanticide supporting, America-hating, UN-loving, Black Value System, I want to tax you into oblivion, global socialist that he is.
This was the correct answer. His voice has a pleasing timbre and he has good awareness of his body as he speaks. He is comfortable speaking, and exudes confidence.
He could read the Chicago Phone Book and it would sound good.
A failed Austrian artist was also a good speaker.
Yeah, absolutely nailed it in one. He is the most blank slate everything to every listener con man of a politician ever. When he speaks he is so empty, so vacuous that every listener is able to project what ever they want to believe onto him and believe he is promising it to them. He can say what ever he wants and his fans will simply lap it up. Talk about real mind numbed robots!
