This guys presentation was too all over the place for me to follow. He would switch subjects, jump back and forth, and give too much non essential info.You never really got a good look at the data, amdI feel like his messy presentation undermined the importance of what he was stating in the eyes of many.
His second presentation he did went into more depth, but that was because people were trying to debunk his first one because they didn't understand his methods.
He made it a point of not being too technical, so anybody could easily digest it. Same thing with Matt Braynard. He specifically said he didn't want to get too detailed, because that would mean that people who aren't a mathematician would have to just trust him on face value. He wanted to make sure you didn't need any special education or qualifications, so anybody could go over and easily understand the point.
But, it want just the way he phrases it, it just seemed like he was nervous or something, and he jumped around to different data without clarifying the significance or how he came to the conclusion. I wasn't sure what specific data he was referring to when making some statements. It didn't help that I couldn't really see his data on the screen either, and he had to rush towards the end. I think he may have benefited from having a script written up where he could systematically go through the import points instead of just playing it by ear, ESPECIALLY with the amount of data he was presenting.
It SEEMED like he was nervous, especially after the dude yelled "what are you gonna do about it" and they told him he had limited time. He kept tapping his hand rapidly like a nervous tick.
If you aren't used to publicly speaking, I feel like that would be a LOT of pressure, speaking under oath, with the fate of the country hanging in these people statements.
I agree. He would derail himself too often and it made it more difficult to follow along. It was like every sentence has a backstory or needed to be unpacked.
He also showed a lot of bias; almost in the same breath as saying "i had to fill in the data myself". He made a lot of political sermons in a critical time to be objective and it doesn't come off as credible. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Seems of goodwill and intentions. Not the best presentation.
He was also operating a laptop that was projected, which we couldn't see, presumably with graphical representations of this. Audience members could see it.

if you are inexperienced at speaking publicly to a crowd it would be very understandable. just thankful he had the nerve to come forward

He had only looked into theis for about 2 days. Yes, he would have benefitted from a better presentation, but I am not sure there was enough time.

It didn't help when they were telling him to keep it short and if he could do it in x minutes.
