Articulation is not about writing. It is, by definition, about speech. And when I hear Jesse Jackson interviewed on the radio I can hardly understand a word he says. I doubt very much that I am alone in that. And I doubt very much that that has anything to do with not agreeing with the man.

Jesse Jackson Jr. is articulate. I hear him iterviewed on the radio fairly often. I understand everything he says and everything he means.

Jesse Jackson may be articulate in that subculture way to which I second referred -- in the Jimmy Swaggart/Al Sharpton preacherman way that appeals to a whip-up-the-crowd play-to-the-masses way. Even MofH's link does not illustrate articualte outside of any but that narrow definition.

Obviously you don't see it that way.
