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.
What? Have you seen him in debate?
He fumbles and hims and haws all the time.
He is not a good speaker.
“It’s 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!
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.
