==================================

Any measurable brain wave at all would be an improvement over most.



I suggested a brief "test" in 2000. Both major candidates would appear on
a news program and be handed a page chosen at random from any of the many
Dickens' novels. Each without practice would have to read the page aloud.

The results of the rest would be readily apparent.

Would just prove the person is a good public speaker.
