Forgotten" (end of headline)

1, The headline seems a bit overwrought. 2, Bush never went to all 50. I'll have to look for other travel records for Presidents.

3. How often did Bush travel to Vermont, Hawaii, and Delaware?

The whole unity thing is a mere marketing slogan. We're hopelessly polarized in our politics, and our politicians respect that dynamic.

4. Howard Dean didn't.

5. "When asked to comment, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said 'NO1CURR'."

6. New Rule:Things like this only seems to be "news" whenever President Obama does/doesn't do something

that every (or most) other Presidents have/haven't done before. That's how I read these kind of articles.

7. I am pretty sure Bush went to 49 states in his eight years

the only one he didn't go to was Vermont.
