Which is just empty pandering that most voters see right through.

Even if this is true, it is false. This is what lost Hillary her election. She took some easy blue states for granted and they gave us Trump instead.

Empty pandering, sure, absolutely. But voters need to see the person they're electing. They need that person to come to their area and tell them that they know we exist. The personal touch will make or break a real election, and that's because humans are dumb, panicky, emotional animals.
