Just for the sake of continuing the discussion; in the spirit of transparency, (pun intended), I suggest that the teleprompter screen be displayed behind the President and all prompts be attributed to their authors. I think that would make for must see, appointment TV.
Do you see any down side to my proposal for the President of his administration? If he is not to be expected to know enough to get him through a presser, shouldn’t the people be allowed to know where he is getting his information from?
You know ... you just might consider giving up your day job to focus on becoming an evil genius. ;-)
