I know. Still, a publicity stunt doesn't necessarily mean a bunch of cameras in your face. I'm not saying it was a publicity stunt, but to "some" it could appear that way. That's all I'm saying.The article says he went and did not want any media attention etc. He went because he wanted to.
Anyway, I will reiterate my initial point; he may or may not fully realize how much it helps. Doesn't matter that he actually did go and visit. He still might not completely grasp it, and he wouldn't be alone in that, I'm sure.
