"Persuasive" is a term the reviewer used, Adams restricts his analysis to 
"communication." The two terms are worlds apart. I would claim that no one in 
politics is persuasive, and given the polarity that exists in political 
discourse, it is impossible for anyone to be persuasive.

He’s not persuasive.   His arguments are ridiculous and appeal to the stupid 
and ignorant.   See Alfredo’s post.
