[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 870677, member: 12952"] [INDENT](CNS) — Vice President Joe Biden’s talent for using many words to say little or nothing — or worse — was never more conspicuously displayed than during his trip to China. At Sichuan University on Sunday, after Biden delivered a 4,600-word speech, a student asked him about the importance of public speaking. “That is a very good question,” Biden said — as he launched into an 863-word answer. In the midst of those 863 words, Biden paid a tribute to brevity — in an incoherent sentence of 68 words. The White House transcribed this Bidenesque brilliance as follows: “And so language, the ability not only to master the ability to put your ideas into words succinctly on a platform to communicate ideas to your own people, it is even more impressive when you have the capacity to do that and communicate your ideas, especially as future business and political and moral leaders of the world in the language of the people to whom you are speaking.” [/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
