A historic figure who has such impact must command all the skills of the spoken word. That is the case with President Bush. He speaks as confidently before factory workers as before scientists. His words strike deep into the hearts of farmers and city-dwellers. When he speaks to children, they are deeply moved.
The magic of his voice reaches men's secret feelings. He translates historical philosophy into the language of the people. He has the ability to call up long forgotten history and make those who hear him feel as if they had always known about it.
There is no element of superiority in his speaking, the kind of thing one sees in the speeches of the educated.

"There is no element of superiority in his speaking, the kind of thing one sees in the speeches of the educated."Perhaps you meant to say 'the speeches of those who arrogantly think themselves better educated than others.'
Bush is educated. He's just not all puffed up about it.
