FMR. SEN. BRADLEY: There’s no question about it. He’s kind of on a sky rocket right now. I mean, he gets 20,000 people at a speech. He has touched into the yearning for people to believe in a better day. That’s what I tried to do in 2000. He’s doing a heck of a lot better job than I did. But I think that that’s a very positive thing that’s happening out there. I think the key thing for Barack is not simply to take that trajectory and just be a rock star, but at some point he’s got to say, “OK, what are the programs, what are the specific things I want to accomplish?” And then he has the opportunity to do what very few politicians have. When the light is shined on you by the public, as it is now being shown on him, a great leader shines it back on the public and empowers them to take actions they never thought they could take. So, while I’m impressed with 20,000 people at a speech, I’d be more impressed with 5,000 meet-ups with 100 people at a meet-up.
