As unfair as it may be, they will listen to him explain things when they won't listen to others. I'm talking about the common people here in Kentucky who supported Clinton heavily in the past because he could connect with them. Alison is doing a very good job trying to connect with them as well. And when I used the word "them" I am not trying to be an elitist. I'm one of them too.
