It's Good to Be the President (2011x6)

: 27, 2011

Americans like to think we know our President. We followed him during the campaign, invited him into our living rooms during countless televised appearances and even learned about his cholesterol count after each annual physical. But the truth is, we know very little about what it's like to be the President. Only five men in the world can answer the questions you’ve always wondered about but never been able to ask, such as, can the President order a Dominos pizza? Is the President ever alone? Does the President ever get to drive a car? Can the President’s daughters have a sleepover? IT'S GOOD TO BE PRESIDENT trades the typical slate of domestic and foreign policy questions asked of and about Presidents for something surprising -- an entertaining conversation about the perks and perils of being the most powerful man in the world.
