"Ask the 'President'"
Just don't ask him anything hard:
Isn't the real story here something that could be put a little less gently than this story puts it?
Bush is absolutely unwilling to make a campaign appearance unless he is surrounded, 100%, by supporters.
What does that tell us about the courage of the man?
And what does it tell us about how He would rule for the next four years?
Welcome to "Ask the President," the latest wrinkle in Bush's efforts to project himself to voters as he ended a two-day campaign in the upper Midwest.
The format is nothing like the high-pressured, prime-time news conferences in the East Room of the White House. Yet as the relaxed, often jocular give-and-take here showed today, the approach affords Bush ample opportunity to tackle an array of issues — usually by falling back on his familiar talking points, but without fear of being interrupted or subjected to pointed follow-up interrogation.
