I don't think anyone could take his superhero role seriously. People have seen and heard Condi and the VP........they know the 'gravitas' don't they?
No one could seriously believe that this Clarke fellow was running the show........no one except Clarke's mama, maybe. :)
I agree! If he was so wonderful, why would President Bush let him go? President Bush surrounds himself with competent, intelligent men and women. I just don't understand why the writer of the film would portray Clarke as such a star, because after 9/11 he was one of the ones who was constantly causing problems and hindering the administration. It would be interesting to see the script.
