It's not really a fact, but more so your opinion and your personal feelings in listening to Obama. I think he's an ok speaker, but I wouldn't say he's "great." I think Clinton and Reagan were better speakers, in my opinion.
DrPhil - do you think that those same race-class issues play into why Obama's background has been more discussed than say Clinton's (where he had a rough home life and an alcoholic father)?
