Clinton and Obama, Patti on Inside Edition

The Political Rumble: Barack vs. Hillary
ORIGINAL AIRDATE: on INSIDE EDITION 1/22/2008

It was a battle royal between Democratic Presidential hopefuls, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

INSIDE EDITION spoke with body language expert, Patti Wood who discussed the many differences between Clinton and Obama's debate stature.

Directing most comments towards each other, Hillary and Barack heated war of words continued.
At one point in the debate, Clinton stopped to stare at Obama.

The bickering and nasty personal attacks in the fiery Democratic debate are still all the buzz. But the tough talk isn't the only evidence of the intense battle between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

Body language expert, Patti Wood told INSIDE EDITION Clinton and Obama responded to the confrontation in drastically different ways. While Clinton used tense, tight, close-to-the-body gestures, her opponent is big, tall and made grander movements.

Hillary stared straight at Obama, leaning against the podium even during Obama's sharpest jab.

Wood told INSIDE EDITION that any eye contact lasting longer than three seconds becomes a physical attack. She says that quite literally that stare said “I hate you.”

Barack looked agitated when Hillary came out swinging.

Wood says throughout the bitter battle Obama's body language gave off the aura of confidence. She says that Obama’s cocked head, which is a sign of self-assurance.

The candidates continued their war of words the following day by reacting to the televised clash.

Hillary had this to say, “He obviously came looking for a fight.” And Obama continued to speak out against the frustrations of dealing with what he calls “inaccuracies.”

It seems growing hostility between Obama and Bill Clinton may have sparked the heated argument in the first place. But it was the subject of the former President that later provided for the funniest moment of the debate.

When asked if he thought Bill Clinton could be considered the first black President, Obama jokingly responded in stride. “I would have to investigate…check in to Bill’s dancing abilities.”

There's a good chance this guy just wants a no-strings fling. "A sneerlike grin is an indication that he's not being sincere with you," points out body-language expert Patti Wood. "It's a split-face gesture: Each side of his face is telling a different story."

Body Language Signals that Make You Look Approachable.

Pay attention to your walk. If you take a close look at the way you walk in shoes, you may find that some of your shoes make you walk duck-footed with your toes going outward. Toss the shoes. If you are a woman and are gasping with disbelief at such sacrilegious recommendations keep reading. I don't care if they are really cute and you got them on sale at DSW, get rid of them. Ditto for shoes that make clip clop sounds as you walk. That means most clogs and heavy flip flop shoes. Remember ducks make cute carton figures but not attractive approachable women or men.

به گوش می رسد. اما متخصصین رشته زبان اشاره (body language) معتقدند نوع عطسه کردن نشانگر شخصیت افراد است.

بر اساس گفته پتی وود (Patti A. Wood) یکی از این متخصصین بیشتر افراد در طول عمرشان روش عطسه کردن مختص به خود را دارند که با شخصیت آنها مطابقت دارد. این متخصص بر اساس تحقیقی که انجام داده عطسه کنندگان را به چهار دسته کلی تقسیم کرده است:

۱- افراد خوب و مهربان

۲- افراد درست و قابل اعتماد

۳- افراد کاری

۴- افراد مشتاق و موثر

افرادی که فقط یک عطسه میکنند در زمره افراد خوب و مهربان هستند این افراد خون گرم، مفید و حامی دیگران می باشند.

افرادی که با صدای بلند عطسه میکنند در زمره افراد کاری به شمار می آیند ، این اشخاص سریع العمل ، قاطع و در نهایت رهبران خوبی هستند.

اشخاصی که همیشه به هنگام عطسه کردن با دستمال جلوی بینی خود را میگیرند افراد درست و قابل اعتمادی هستند این افراد معمولا با دقت، درستکار ، و بسیار منطقی میباشند.

آخرین گروه افرادی هستند که با صدای بسیار بلند و خشن و به دفعات عطسه می کنند در زمره افراد مشتاق به شمار می آیند که این اشخاص دارای جذابیت اجتماعی می باشند و توانائی ایجاد انگیزه و تاثیر گذاری بر دیگران را دارند.

بنا به گفته دکتر فردریک لیتل (Frederic Little) پرفسور دانشگاه بوستون یک الگوی ذاتی برای روش عطسه کردن انسانها وجود دارد که به احتمال زیاد ژنتیکی و موروثی میباشد.
