Jesse Jackson was complaining about the bad press he received during the primary coverage. He cited his fishing trip with the Pope as an example.
He was in the boat with the Pope when a big wind blew off the Papal hat. Jackson told the Pope don’t worry I shall get the hat, and he stepped out of the boat, walked on water, picked up the hat, and walked back on the water. In a nearby boat the press were watching over Jesse’s walking on water with great interest and in their typical way they announced this in the front page headlines the next day:

So he stands on the sea / And he shouts to the shore. / But the longer that he shouts / the more that he’s ignored. — from a Tom Paxton song

I’m imagining the clutter, of hoards of people walking on water, if not for the sign forbidding it.
