Title: OBAMA, Mr. Eloquent Speaker, Check this out.
Post by: DECEPTiON21 on September 18, 2008, 01:46:44 PM
Everyone talks about how eloquent a speaker Obama is. No one talks about the teleprompter he reads off of. Here is what happens his teleprompter goes out. Elect him? Never.

can't see the vid but they all read from a teleprompter, and they all make mistakes.

I'm fully aware they all read from a teleprompter. The difference is that Obama claims to be and is held as a very eloquent speaker. A good speaker doesn't say "uh" or stutter. Two of the first things you learn in a basic public speaking class. What's especially irritating is that Dems have the audacity to call McCain a bad speaker and Obama a great speaker.

They will always call out the other side, thats just the name of the game.  And I've heard both speak when they aren't going off a pre-written speech and they each do ok.  I'll give him some credit and say he was just off his game.

I guess it's just that one of Obama's s strengths is supposed to be his speaking ability. Funny to see what happens without the teleprompter.

Most common thing to happen to a speaker is they get flustered, once you do its all over.

Like I said, they all will do it.  Fact of life.  But sure good for a few laughs.

Unfortunately, our current prez can't even read said teleprompter. Watch his eyes when speaking....you can see him squint with lack of understanding. :lol:
