Joe, Einstein had poor grades, but that was not necessarily indicative of a poor understanding of technology issues. Scumbria

Well, my opinion is that neither one is, but one can talk well, while the other one can't. When I came to the US, and my English was poor (still is), the reaction I got from many people was as if I was stupid. I am not very articulate person neither in my mother tongue nor in English, so I can sympathize with Bush. Of course, that is not the reason I am for him. To me, not being articulate is not something that is disqualifying. Neither is the fact that one is not a political junkie. Gore obviously is, Bush is not. Again, IMO, no advantage for Gore. Joe, For me someone's accent does not determine whether that person is competent or not.....nor if a person is articulate or not. Frankly I don't listen to too many speeches from either man because there is too much rhetoric intertwined with the substance. However I do rely on my gut feeling based on instinct plus the information I have re the person...what they have done, what they think, what they believe...and my gut tells me that Bush is not to be trusted and that he is not all that bright. Apparently, that's not the perception of this country nor you. Maybe I am missing something. ted
