Do you know what catapulted Bill Clinton into the conversation as President? His interview with Arsenio Hall and playing saxophone on the show. It wasn't policy or beliefs. George Bush senior was viewed as a stick in the mud. Clinton offered Charisma and a smile.

Obama got into the conversation as a future President from a speech at the Democratic National convention. Had nothing to do with his positions or policy.

George Bush was a guy you could sit down and have a beer with.

Ronald Reagan, do I need to explain?

But yes personality has no impact when running for President.

    I didn’t say it has no impact. I said personality is what dipshits like you care more about over policy. How has that worked out for the modern Democratic party. Zero significant legislation that compares to their mid-century peers and an electoral wipeout 2.5 years ago.

    Pretty much. Smart guy with strong oratory skills but uninspiring moderate politics.

    Obama wasn’t that great an orator.

    Plenty of black preachers with more game than Barry.

    Maybe because John Favreau didn't write most of their speeches.

    So you're saying he was articulate.
