From the AZCentral:
"We're seeing a more vocal Obama," said Louis DeSipio, a political-science professor
at University of California, Irvine. … "The powers of the president are relatively
few, especially when his party doesn't control the Congress," DeSipio said. "One of
those powers is the bully pulpit, the ability to talk directly to the American people
about issues."
