I've been reading with interest the diaries discussing the primary contest between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton (BS and HRC). One aspect of the presidential election that I don't recall seeing discussed is the bully pulpit.

A couple of definitions of the term are " a sufficiently conspicuous position that provides an opportunity to speak out and be listened to" and "a public office or position of authority that provides its occupant with an outstanding opportunity to speak out on any issue."
