and has brought me to tears. I do not have that experience with any of other candidates even though they speak with energy, force, great command. They seldom stumble; Joe occasionally does.

But his authentic presence, his feel for people, the humanity he shares, and his wisdom and optimism for America makes him, to my mind, a highly effective communicator.
