Maybe you have to have traveled as much as an 8 year VP does to remember that, but it's one any president needs to master if he's to have any degree of domestic success. It's easy to tailor an address to any one narrow constituency. It's an art to tailor it so that it will resonate with very diverse groups that barely realize that others even exist. The likelihood of the Alabama strawberry farmer even meeting the Newport Beach surf shop owner is slim to none. But the need to address both of them is something no president in his right mind deliberately ignores. Not that every president IS in his right mind, of course...........
