Truth be told, when a new president takes office, he should declare that he will not leave the United States, except on matters so important, and his attendance so critical, that on his request a resolution is made by senate that he should attend.
This means no more globetrotting. I must be clear around the world that the Secretary of State is the authorized representative of the US, outside of the US, with other subordinates sent as needed.
Factoid # 3001: It was Wilson who was the first President to leave the United States while he was in office.
I agree. There should BE no “Air Force One.” The President should work and live at the White House, and relax at Camp David.
BTW: Obama is a Muslim Jew-hater. I’m sure he views the liberation of the death camps in 1945 as one unfortunate side-effect of the end of WWII.
