I think that he is very very well spoken. He is perfect for a presidential candidate in the future and Xian is right in that he wears the title Senator like no one else...actually, no one else since Kennedy, IMO.
At the moment, he is too young and too new. there is no way he would get elected within the next 2 presidential election terms, but he is definitely one of the future elites of the Democratic Party. We shall see!
Xian is right though...we do tend to elevate Governors, but I am surprised he forgot to mention one of his faves...Reagan... shame shame!!!
