A couple of years ago, former U.S. president Bill Clinton delivered an excellent speech at The University of Texas at Austin.
The elegance and sophistication of his speech makes him by far the best public speaker I have seen. Steve Jobs does give great presentations from time to him. But he’s a salesman and that’s what he does best. However, people who attend his presentations usually walk away with reality distortion field affect. Bill Clinton, on the other hand, nails his points with impeccable logics and concisely worded reasons. I can’t see how anybody can debate with him and win.
I tried recording the live streaming of the speech but failed. I am so worried that someday it may not be accessible anymore. But in the meantime, his speech can be accessed from Apple’s site here.
I’d also visit the William J. Clinton Foundation website for transcripts and videos from his other speeches. Very inspirational.
