What's it like to introduce San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom to the state of Israel? Such was the task of Sam Lauter, Chair of the Northern California board of AIPAC and Principal for Barnes, Mosher, Whitehurst, Lauter & Partners, a public affairs firm, who I met at the Jewish Community Federation’s Business Leadership Council (BLC) breakfast at San Francisco's Palace Hotel. Lauter was Newsom's guide to Israel. And while he was touring, introducing Mayor Newsom and his staff to the country and its people, Lauter realized that information had to be put in context with what they already knew. And up until then, all they knew about Israel was what had been written in the American press.
