He's amazing. Really smart. It's a joy to hear him speak. He's what politicians should be, intelligent and well spoken.

[tampazeke]

He's WAY too articulate, intelligent and thoughtful to ever be president of the United States.

[MossPalone]

A president that's able to speak so many languages in a nation of immigrants is just too good to be true.

[randychannelrandychannel]

He speaks all of them better than the current president speaks English.

I was in high school with Mayor Pete at St Joe, he was a year ahead. His intellect is astonishing. Of course, he was their class valedictorian as well as a national merit scholar. It’s pretty amazing that those are merely footnotes now in his story. I took one class with Pete, an honors history class when I was a freshman. Needless to say, he was the brightest one in the class. He’s the leader that America needs right now.

IF NOT VP, MAKE HIM SECRETARY OF STATE!

[MortenOstigard]

Wow, as a Norwegian I can confirm that he spoke grammatically perfect! He has an accent, but my American neighbour who has lived in Norway for 25 years has a thicker accent, so..

[timothyshortnacy]

Pete is so impressive. What a good man.

[gymdoc]

He’s way too smart, Americans will never vote for him. He’s not relatable

[JulieHerrick]

Learning that many languages requires a genuine curiosity about the world and a dedication to lifelong learning. That's a quality I want in a leader.
No one human can possibly be qualified for all aspects of the American Presidency, but an aptitude for learning goes a long way.

I have a feeling this guy will be president one day, it’ll be a waste if he wasn’t.

[joldc]

I am french, and can say when he spoke French he did it very well, good vocabulary, With a minor accent, totally genuine,

[ef]

Very impressive. I've always said those we vote for to lead this country should be held to a higher standard. I don't want people 'just like me' to lead. I want them to be better, smarter, more capable, and contain a level of empathy needed to direct policy for thousands and millions of people.

[arlenesecrist]

Oh, please, elect him President, what a blessing.

[rightwing]

He speaks better Norwegian than Trump speaks English.

[crjetpilot]

Imagine having an intelligent person in the White House again!

[fujinyumi]

This man should be president. I don’t care if he’s gay, and honestly nobody should. This man is incredibly qualified.

[ahmadabboud]

I expected broken and terribly spoken Arabic, I was pleasantly surprised. It's an extremely difficult language, it's difficult enough for native speakers, so that's a great achievement for him
