  Organizing involves building close relationships amongst a larger and larger network of people. The President flying somewhere doesn't do that. The article describes this. The Democratic party often confuses activism and media presence with organizing, and focuses on get-out-the-vote and media strategy without having done the work of organizing strongly-tied networks on the ground. The Obama campaign was the exception, because Obama had worked as an on-the-ground organizer.
