I just want to respond to the claims made by some that insist that G.W. Bush was clearly unfit to be president and how poor his decisions may have been. Eloquence is not a necessary trait of a good decision maker. The fact that someone’s vocabulary is not up to the standards of formal academia should have no bearing on one’s ability to govern (is it the accent that is so deceiving?…). This is why they have people writing speeches for them is it not? Take BHO for instance. Clearly his vernacular far exceeds Bush’s…no comparison, but what he makes up for in public speaking, he lacks in experience. I doubt Obama’s words and empty rhetoric will make up for his inability to make smart, tough decisions when the time comes.
