I heard Dick Morris last night saying that what makes a great President is the ability to speak.

Forget about good judgment, policy, and respect for rights.

He used Abraham Lincoln as an example. I am not sure that Lincoln was that great of an orator. He was pretty good at writing speeches, but from what I’ve read, the delivery left something to be desired.

He also used Roosevelt as an example. Roosevelt did make some memorable speeches, but then his policies kept the Depression going for 9 years, and it was the War that finally brought it to an end.
