The only say you or your 100 friends has is whether or not you will vote for or against said politician the next time he runs.....unless it's a local official as Anime has shown us.

Look, I see your point, ok? But that does NOT change the fact that the president is a PUBLIC SERVANT, which was what you were disputing. It doesnt get any simpler than that. The president is a public servant. Period. End of story. ANY elected or appointed official is a public servant. And though you or I might not have his ear, our congressmen and senators sure as hell do, and they do what we tell them.
