What I'm saying is no politician has blasted went against our forefathers and the foundations of this country for a particular audience.

Tailoring comments for an audience makes since, hence making a comment like "I make many decisons based on my faith" etc. However, calling the seperation of church and state a lie - is not a tailored statement, it's wrong (or worse).

"Chocolate city" is a good example of a tailored (however misguided when taken out of context). But, is common reference for any city composed of over 35% african-american population. Atlanta and D.C. are also typically called chocolate cities.

The big difference is one attacks the foundation of the country in a broad sense. The other, speaks to the people of a specific city in a specific and defined way.

I see the forest and the trees, but I see the other elements too.
