re: #428 Charles

IMO, his mistake is not so much in the timing, of the speech, but in the timing of the announcement of the speech. .Way too much lead time, way too much fanfare and ’ Hey, I’m gonna talk to the school children of America ’ So he wants to address the kids. Fine. Why all the hoo-hah? Why all the drumrolls? Just pick a time and a TelePrompter , give the nets a few days notice, and talk to them. We’re all watching, Barack. No need to send out flyers and advance men to make sure.
