C. When his/her public opinion is high
The "going public" strategy is a term which refers to a president's attempt to appeal directly to the public on an issue, hoping that they, in turn, will put pressure on their representatives in Congress. This strategy is most effective when the President's public opinion is high because that implies the President has considerable public support.
