Trying to be more eloquent ...

I'm currently reading Eloquence in an Electronic Age: The Transformation of Political Speechmaking. Although I am only about a third of the way through, I would already feel comfortable recommending it to you.

Have you noticed that the techniques and vocal style that inspired millions to follow FDR, William Jennings Bryan, or even John F. Kennedy, might actually be a "turn-off" in today's world?

Do you think Bill Clinton's empathic style would have worked in an earlier time???

Eloquence explains how communication has evolved over the years.
