Let's say that I wanted to see the president. No, I NEED to see him. Not just from a distance, I need to sit down and have a private conversation. What can I do? Dial up the White House and say, "Sir? Could I come over to the Oval Office next week and have a heart to heart with you?"
No. If I tried for a month, I probably couldn't get past the phone operator at the White House.
