He works that folksy 'southern charm' magic into his delivery, creating modest, humble understatements that pack a rhetorical punch without being overbearing .... Anyways, that's how I see it ...

Another thing: Doesn't President Clinton look fabulous ? .... Just looking at his neck, one can see what a huge change he has undergone after switching to a full vegan diet .... He looks better than he did 15 years ago .... I am sold on Veganism just by seeing what it has done for this man who has had two heart 'events' - His heart disease has subsided greatly, and that is what all of us middle aged folk need to look at as we age further ....

What an inspiration for us common folk ! ..... If Bill can do it, so can I .... right ?

GREAT speech ....

His speech was what the Democrats have needed - badly. I hope everyone sees it and understands it because he puts it all out there and does it clearly.

Bill looks fantastic, but I'm worried about his health. He has a significant resting tremor in his right thumb - maybe first signs of Parkinsons. I sure hope not. You can see it clearly just after 5:40 in the video.
