1. Katie Couric and other women who interview you will place their voices in the lower register - the Lauren Bacall sound. You don't have to be that low, but you do need to keep in control and thoughtful in the close-contact interviews, in order to sound more authoritative.
2. Relax your voice and stretch the inner muscles with yawn-like jaw stretches. Strident high-pitched voices kill women candidates. Yours is a pleasant voice. Keep it relaxed and metered. Tension kills the authoritative sound of the voice.
3. Don't rush your answers. When GW does it, he makes laughable mistakes. A measured response, requires a decent thoughtful pace. When you stumble, you sound unsure.
4. Study, study study! Get those 150 questions most likely to be asked by reporters, and prep very hard. Insist on it.
5. You've had executive experience and that includes command position for your state. That would include all enemies foreign and domestic, as you protect your citizens and your state constitution, as the supreme executive officer of Alaska. Biden as been just a senator
6. You sounded tentative and unsure. Get prepared and get ready.
7. Pray for the right answers to come to mind, for what you are to say in the hour thereof.
8. Sometimes, when they don't ask the right question, you give the right answer. Answer the question they should have asked you.
