I think someone who’s truly extraordinary shouldn’t have to try very hard to look “relatable”. JFK comes to mind immediately— he didn’t dress or act like a man of the people, but you still got the sense that his family life was like what your family life would be like if you had a lot more money.
Kerry in jeans simply felt inauthentic. Nobody had any idea what his life was actually like behind closed doors.
