I always found this kind of weird - for a politician, he's good, but the really good orators mostly aren't politicians.
If they aren't politicians what do these great orators talk about, and who do they talk to?
I mean, I consider myself a great salesman, and that obviously involves speaking, but it certainly isn't what I would call oratory.
Teachers/professors could maybe be considered orators, but in my experience almost all of them suck, and the ones that stand out stand out more because of the low bar than actual greatness on their part.
