&gt; Removing filler words from normal speech gives you clearer speech, not a sermon. Orators use far more tricks than avoiding filler. They exude emotion. Oration is a performance, and for most people it does not come naturally.<p>I&#x27;m a bit confused. So if I understand you correctly, Sam is the one with clear, calm speech, but Craig is the praised &quot;orator&quot;, yet he would appear &quot;insane&quot; in your living room. So which one do you think is the better speaker?
