Obama Speeches Dumbest Of All Presidents: STUDY

Post by travelinman67 »

Scientific analysis of readability finds Obama's speeches most "dumbed down" of all Presidents.

Kinda thinkin' he's just speaking to his supporters. :nod:

Why do we keep arguing this point? It plays right into Spandos' two party-same shit argument.

Yes, the last two presidents we elected were, if not the two dumbest, both clearly in the bottom ten.

I guess I have to give Bush credit for at least not having so much hubris that he couldn't laugh at himself. Obama really believes that his shit doesn't stink, and his fat baboon-looking wife has an even higher opinion of herself.

Simple. Libtard insistence that Bush was "dumbest".

Bush was dumb. Obama is dumber.

If our nation continues on its current path, we have not yet elected the dumbest.

Personally, I'm aghast that anyone still attempts to defend the failed policies of the current administration. Ideologue or not, the time and energy wasted defending failed policies to protect party vanity is destroying our nation.

technicality, I know, but the dumbest wasn't elected, he was appointed by the Supreme Court.

A good candidate for second. Doesn't touch "is our children being educated", too much irony.

Bush's post 9/11 speech was one of the best I ever heard, but he sucked as a Prez. Clearly speech quality is not a good metric with which to judge a Prez.

Ideologues drop in, without having reviewed the research, and blindly defend failed policies.

Point

The fact that Obama said :"Corpsman" not once, but twice, certainly does touch that..

I don't see any surprises that Obama's speeches are aimed at the lowest common denominator..?
This is the era of buzz words and 30 second video clips

Why would ANY politician aim higher..? Any complex idea expressed and you'll just get misquoted

I would speak in very short phrases (much like I print on this forum)

SMFH……

Sad to watch. An increasingly hateful and bitter Tbag, backed into a corner by the triumph of Progressivism over Conkunism, simply proves to us that one can find ANYTHING on the Internet if he or she simply types in keywords.

Shame, T. Get on that couch soon and talk to Brother D about your shit.

The speech to the 1st graders should have been our first clue as to what was to come.
