The Importance of Constituency in a Presidential Campaign

Pompeo has a congressional constituency, but it's very difficult to have a secretary of state constituency on a national level. And the same thing with Nikki Haley, with these appointed offices, she is not a senator or she was appointed by Trump. So they don't have a national constituency like Reagan did. They didn't have a, when you had Obama running against Hillary, Hillary couldn't say I made Obama or she worked for me. That's what I'm trying to say. It makes it very difficult to run against someone that the public might perceive as your benefactor.
