that section was just omitted because you have a time limit. i assume that modular method is used in others. it is a place the president puts down an agenda but also makes a connection to the american people. most people see the president in a seven or eight-second clip once a day at most. to see him at an extended period of time, they always come away liking their president better because you don't get to be president unless you've got skills that enable you to communicate with people through that box. >> but to that point, given what you're describing, why does it feel -- i understand bureaucratically why it ends up being a laundry list of the wish list and stuff like that, but doesn't the president realize it gets kind of boring and it's not going be interesting as and inspiring to them. >> this is a place where president clinton was a real presidential innovator. what happened with clinton, he would deliver these terrible, boring, ghastly states of the union. important mrs. mildred james in
