Charisma

A couple of people who didn’t like politics at all couldn’t stop gushing about a candidate they met who had been working the spectator area at a Fourth of July parade.

“He was just wonderful!” one of them said with great enthusiasm.

The candidate was Barack Obama and he was running for U.S. Senator at the time.

I knew about him but I was still surprised these people would have reacted the way they did.

I thought that Obama guy must have a whole lot of charisma.
