maybe because he's thinking of ways to talk circles around everything he addresses. just a thought... i'm not an o'bama hater though. :)
-
Because that is one of the things people say/do while they are thinking. It basically shows he does not have a set memorized script. If he did, it would flow without the umm. Some hesitate a slight bit without making a sound instead. I have heard many speakers and this is the least disturbing of those who make a habitual noise when speaking. I have heard speakers say ptttt, or daa. That drives me nuts.

His wife says the same thing so maybe it's a bad habit they picked up from each other. Once you get in that habit it's very hard to break the Ummmm problem.

Cause.
-
Because, unlike the previous office-holder, Obama actually thinks about what he so eloquently says...
-
Because he's not really a great communicator. He's a good speech reader, but that's as far as his real talent goes.

Nobody really knows. But, the bigger picture should be this: What does it matter if President Obama says umm? President Obama is a thinker, is extremely smart and analytical; which are attributes we need in a President. Our country had been lacking those for the past eight years.
-
Because he doesnt memorize his speeches and talks as if he is speaking to you personally.
-
ummmm, maybe because he like's to ummmmmm select his words carefully. If that's the case ummmmmm, I think thats a ummmmmmm, structured way of ummm proceeding with his speeches. ummmmmmm you diggg!!!!
-
He very rarely uses 'ummm' or any other kind of pause word.....he is very articulate and his sentences flow very smoothly.
-
Filler...?
-
HABIT, WHEN HE DOES'NT HAVE A ANSWER.
-
because he actually thinks about his answers he dosnt have them written on a postcard that all he has to do is read it
