Why Is the White House ignoring broadband?

I try not to be too alarmist in my proclamations about the state of broadband policy in DC, but sometimes I can't help but get piqued when it feels like broadband's being ignored by the very people who we so desperately need to make it a top priority. To that end, I have to get this off my chest: I think the White House is ignoring broadband.

Now I don't mean the entire White House. For example, I've had a chance to meet Susan Crawford, President Obama's broadband adviser, and I know for a fact that she's not ignoring broadband...
