I visited DC last week to give a talk on this paper at the American Association for Public Opinion Research (AAPOR). During my brief 36-hour visit, I encountered President Obama not once but twice.

The next day, I decided to walk past the White House on my way down to the Mall. And then guess who flew overhead.

My one presidential encounter was at the 1994 NCAA b-ball national championship game (Duke v. Arkansas). Secret Service actually muscled my then girlfriend, now wife, out of the way for Bill Clinton.
