No one disputes President Obama’s charisma, personal charm and rhetorical skill.

I bleeping do! Who died and left him king of all communication? Enough of this crap!

Amen, I agree. The only reason people EVER thought that, was because everyone in the media constantly harped on how "charismatic" he was; or, what a brilliant speaker he was; or, how "intelligent" he was.

There was never any real proof about his intelligence. Let's see those college transcripts. His rhetorical style (to me) is annoying, and without his beloved teleprompter, he always stumbles and says something stupid. As for charismatic, we should always be wary of anyone described like that.
