I hope Freepers caught the CNBC evaluation of candidate speaking levels at http://tinyurl.com/puoabra

Reading this at http://tinyurl.com/p22l7fy makes it even more interesting. It may explain why Trump is doing so well and why it’s harder for Cruz to get more traction.

Did they make the study before or after the debate.

You have a top brain surgeon and a Harvard top of his class who has argued in front of the Supreme Court and none of them are over 9th grade level????

I am sure any Marxist will be at post grad level using their criteria.

Rule one of effective public speaking, speak to be understood by the widest possible audience.

I notice a distinct lack of any such “grade level” analysis of the Democrat Socialist party debate.
