Languages were brought up earlier and I thought that might be an interesting approach but I'm not sure if it would work with this game's rules. Perhaps the Senator is particularly good with languages which would assist in diplomacy and bluffing.
As Rahullu said, in 1E it's so straightforward that you just add your starting skill dice to the skills you want to be better at, +2D maximum to any one skill. So if you have a 2D Knowledge attribute and want to reflect the knack for languages, use 2 of your 7 there. Diplomacy works as the Bureaucracy, Bargain and Con skills in 1E Star Wars, depending on what area you want to focus upon, but a separate high language roll could certainly help, tho there aren't really any synergy bonuses.
