On Public Speaking Skills

As a candidate you can have all the right answers and have great ideas. But not having the confidence to speak in front of large groups of people or the media can hurt you more than anything.

Its a skill that can only be taught to a point. The rest is developed through sheer practice and repetition.

At last night's debate I thought Mike Foster held his on on the issues. But there were times when his voice faltered and his confidence seemed to slip. This hurts Mr. Foster even more considering the position he is seeking is envisioned by many as one of strength and confidence.

kaduk, I hope you realize that ANYONE can see what you post. Any business transaction you hope to make, any political connection you hope to make could be scrutinized as to what you say online. It is free for all to see...so dont EVER plan on running for office.
