Orator

I don’t believe that to be an orator an individual has to be morally good. A lot of times public speakers deliver speeches that are “just what they want the audience to hear.”  I believe any person can be an Orator as long as they have the persuasive qualities to convince people of the message they are delivering. I think the idea behind an orator being morally good is a great one; unfortunately I do not believe that is always the case. In all honesty, the connection between truth, goodness, and public communication really lies in the way the audience perceives and responds to the speaker. I believe we see a lot of this in politics, and as an audience we want to hear speakers who are morally good.
