I don't think movies or television have any basis in reality at all. It's all just pretend. That's what's fun about it.James Spader
People who supported Obama felt like they formed a relationship, that they were being spoken to. The way that campaign worked and the way he's worked during his first term is to make people feel like he's grasping their hand, whether it's by tweeting or email, moments after an event, sometimes during an event. It makes people relate to him.James Spader
