The Importance of Staying in Touch With Your Constituency

David Gergen: Bill Clinton's political rise was a series of ups and downs. He attended Oxford University, Georgetown then Yale Law School where he met his future wife Hillary Rodham. At age 34 he was the youngest ex governor in American history but learned many lessons from that defeat which helped him get elected as president two years later. The key ones were to constantly stay in touch with your constituency and figure out ways to get around the press says Gergen.
