Скачать или смотреть Communication Analysis by an SLP - Kennedy vs Nixon Debate

Something a little different today.
I’ve removed the audio from this clip so we can focus entirely on what our eyes tell us about communication.

Both speakers deliver eloquent answers with organized thoughts and minimal filler words. There’s not much separating them in terms of intelligence or articulation.

The real difference? Presence.

Nixon, exhausted from his campaign, appeared tense and fatigued. Kennedy, calm and composed, projected quiet confidence and what many described as “presidential.”

It’s the perfect example of how delivery can shape perception, even when the content is nearly identical (apart from political viewpoints).

Who do you think had the stronger presence?
