George, this skill made him rise above others.

I recall the first time I heard him. It was wow --this guy is going places.

Excellent communication is a prerequisite to becoming President short of extenuating circumstances. The greats include Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Reagan, Kennedy, and FDR. George W Bush was OK.

Others wanted oratory skills and lost elections: Elizabeth Warren, Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, and Walter Mondale. Joe Biden won but only with help from COVID and Donald.

DeSantis is unlikely to win in 2024, being a poor speaker.

Many thanks. Best.
