Go to the People? With a “News Media” that routinely ignores or deliverately misreperesents what he says? That gives about 50 times as much coverage to his critics? Just how is he going to get his message TOO the people in the face of a willingly politically corrupt “News” media?

The “Conservative” Alternaive media? You mean the same people who spend all day every day whining mindlessly “Why doesn’t Bush do this, why doesn’t the Bush do that.” EVEN if Bush was as creat a communicator as Slick Wille or Reagan, it pretty impossible for any President to get his message out when the people who are SUPPOSE to be his echo chamber are more intrested in shooting their own side in the back then winning.

Yes, he has the bully pulpit. He can address the nation on TV in prime time and has. He holds televised press conferences. He gives his weekly radio address. He can arrange for televised interviews. It is far too easy to blame the MSM, which is definitely biased. There are other ways to communicate using the new media. The old media is declining in the number of viewers and readers. Its influence is on the wane.
