Then the VERY NEXT DAY he invites them to a teleconference.

In fact, the conference call involved hundreds of representatives from dozens of organizations with an interest in domestic policy issues. I know this for a fact because my organization was invited and participated in the conference call..and we dont represent bankers.

I would guess there were reps from the American Bankers Association on the call, as well as reps from public interest groups, mayors and governors, faith-based organizations, unions, minority interest groups, economic development organizations, etc.

It is called outreach and dialogue with persons who represent numerous interests across the political spectrum.
