Hi, you have written another good essay. Skills, like communication skills, business skills, etc are usually plural unless you are talking about one specific skill. I really liked your introduction and your essay was very easy to follow.

Agree or disagree the most important characteristic for a politician or a leader is good communication skill. 2012 is a significant year, since numerous presidential elections will take place in different corner[s ] of the world, such as : France , The US, Japan , China , Russia, etc. speeches{cap}| from the presidential campaign attract millions of spectators. In my opinion, a charming politician always has his/her own instrument to transmit opinions to public and incite voters.{ok, but I would say "...politician always uses his or her own voice as an instrument ..."} This skill is necessary and primordial for candidates to win the election and also to promote their policy . First and foremost, a good communication skill[s ] makes the politicians and their politics well known. For instance, several politicians try to popularize their way of speaking{I think "popularize their way of thinking" - they are not trying to promote their method of making speeches} to provide people a better understanding, or they use their humor and some funny presentations in order to make the speeches impressive. As the result, the repercussion{I think "response" would be better} among the people will be stronger. Obviously , [if] more people pay attention to what the politicians said, they are surer to win . Secondly and equal importantly , a efficient communication can reduce misunderstandings. In my experience, misunderstanding is worse than that we do[doing] nothing at all . Because the politician can hardly handle the situation :once their make a claim public {this phrase is confusing to me} , it is impossible to correct and neutralize what they have said. For example , The mayor of a city tend[intends] to reduce the number of traffic accidents by publishing [the advisory]: slow down or you will be killed ! This slogan is not persuasive at all , moreover the government's reputation will receive a irreparable damage. In conclusion, a good communication skill[s are] is crucial . Because it can not only enable the politician[s ] to conquer more agreements {"conquer agreements" sounds odd}, but also help them to avoid side effects due to the misunderstandings .
