Excellent article. But Andrew and these other intellectuals have to get over thinking everything about leadership is determined by how someone comes across on TV

Absolutely right. We knew the kind of leader we were praying into office. They are just now getting the picture and after the speech at the cathedral and meeting with the firefighters and volunteers at ground zero they are surprised and see what we knew all along.

Of course those that have criticized him for not connecting with the public or giving a good speech will now try to give the idea that he has changed or grown into the job because of events. He was always that way, they should have attended one of his campaign rallies and saw him and how the people responded to him.

I heard a volunteer worker talking to a Fox News person that he had shook hands with the President and how thrilled he was. From under his hardhat he says, "I know people, and he looked me straight in the eye, I mean straight in the eye, I know this man is sincere." And, it seemed very important to that man to learn that.
