Did our Commander-in-Chief act like one during the (in)famous 7 minutes?
People who pack a self-compliment into their screenname are usually weak in that area.
How's the weather under that bridge?

I don't know what Carter's deal was--whether he was a Commie or just a dupe or what--but here's one interesting thing I found:
Christopher Andrew and Vasili Mitrokhin, The Sword and the Shield: The Mitrokhin Archive and the Secret History of the KGB, 290-291, 627n84:
"Though [Gus] Hall tended to overstate the influence of undeclared members of the CPUSA within the Democratic Party, there was at least one to whom the Centre attached real importance during the 1970s: a Democratic activist in California recruited as a KGB agent during a visit to Russia. The agent, who is not identified by name in the reports noted by Mitrokhin, had a wide circle of influential contacts in the Democratic Party: among them Governor Jerry Brown of California, Senator Alan Cranston [California], Senator Eugene McCarthy [Minnesota], Senator Edward Kennedy [Massachusetts], Senator Abraham Ribicoff [Connecticut], Senator J. William Fulbright [Arkansas] and Congressman John Coyers, Jr [Michigan]. During the 1976 Presidential campaign the agent was able to provide inside information from within the Carter camp and a profile of Carter himself, which were particularly highly valued by the Centre since it had so few high-level American sources. On one occasion he spent three hours discussing the progress of the campaign at a meeting with Carter, Brown and Cranston in Carter's room at the Pacific Hotel. His report was forwarded to the Politburo. During the final stages of the campaign the agent had what the KGB claimed were 'direct and prolonged conversations' with Carter, Governor Brown and Senators Cranston, Kennedy, Ribicoff and Jacob Arvits [Javits?--Fedora]. Andropov attached such importance to the report on these conversations that he forwarded it under his signature to the Politburo immediately after Carter's election."
[Reference from 627n84: "[Mitrokhin archives] vol. 6, app. 1, part 4; t-3,76. Mitrokhin had access only to reports in FCD files based on intelligence provided by the agent, not to the agent's file itself--probably because he had been recruited by the Second (rather than the First) Chief Directorate during a visit to the Soviet Union. Within the United States he seems to have been run from the San Francisco residency."]
Did Bill Clinton act like one while Monica was under his desk?
Did Kerry act like one when he sat mindless and stuned for 40 minutes?
Did Kerry act like one when he blasted rice and a grenade fragment up his backside?

Decisions: Ground air-traffic; Evacuate potential targets, such as the Pentagon;
There were procedures in place to handle all of these situations, and they were handled at the specified level at the time. To suggest that nothing in the government gets done without the Presidents specific ok on each and every action shows a lack of intelligence on behalf of every maroon that puts this inane question forth.
