"And the media never called him Mr Clinton by my recollection---and still don't."
I don't care what they wish to call that turd now, but today the guy running the country is President George W.Bush, the commander and chief of the United States of America!
No, that's George W. Bush, commander-in-chief of the armed forces of the United States of America, and President of the United States of America.
That's the correct formulation.
