If not, can someone without charisma win the Presidency? I think no for both questions.

Who cares. We have a President in office right now who supposedly has charisma; that's sure helping a lot.

If you need charisma to get elected, you should care.

If you don't really care about what it takes to get elected, why are you posting on this forum???

Although charisma helps, the most important thing is how the candidate VOTES on the issues.

I don't need a bigger than life person in office trying to run my life. Give me someone with no ego, whose only agenda is to follow the Constitution.

In today's world with 24/7 I think charisma is very important. Actually I think he does but most will disagree. I still don't think he can get to 1st base even within the party. I could be dead wrong.

OMG I usually agree with much of what you say, but that is one thing I don't think Ron Paul has. In fact that is one of his problems.

haha, I was trying to be sarcastic on here but I doubt anybody could remotely pick it up. No he isn't very charismatic but I'll still vote for him!
