Matt Frei, the presenter of 'BBC World News America',
makes interesting points in a 'think piece' on how
present and past presidential candidates here have
been perceived relative to the way they speak and
their articulateness.

He also gets off a great line re our current leader's
depth of character: "He is veneer all the way through."
