I agree. Personally, I prefer listening to Bush's radio addresses when I can. He just seems more relaxed.
The trouble is how you go about it. I'm not certain Americans are going to sit around the radio anymore
My wife and I do. She works on making jewelry and I do my coding or work on a parody while we listen. And yup, we have a fireplace. :o)
I wouldn't exactly mind radio either, but I'm curious if there is a way to go about making weekly radio 'chats' THE place to be in the 21st century? And if radio can be revived to use in that sense, or if it'll have to come from a new forum like the net? Though internet 'chats' are not "free" enough that anyone can participate.
I think Americans would actually like a way to feel more connected to the President and hear the details the press doesn't report, but it needs to be packaged to "sell" to a new audience, as anything does in this age.
