You get the feeling Toby was going to grab Bartlett and toss him through the door when he stopped to tie his shoe....Like..."I Will Personally carry you up there old man"
I love the west wing, I really miss it. I have to say this was one of my favorite episodes. Does any one have a copy of abby yelling at the President about the deal they had and his ms. I would really like to watch that again. Thanks
Great comment and only because I believe that is how we should feel about our elected leaders as they go forth to champion our cause as our representative. For once I would love to stand back and let them announce this same line and have a President who is not a Wall St, CIA or Corporate puppet walk out and say "This all ends now..The wars end, the foreign aid ends, the Federal Reserve bailouts end and it is time for taxation of free Americans to end" I imagine Ron Paul
Out of all the years I spent watching the West Wing, the opening to this Episode stands out the most... This is truly great television; In just those few minutes it conveys just how daunting the task of a U.S. President is.
I love when he stops to tie his shoes! Such a human moment.

I love that drumbeat right after "Mr. Speaker" where you just see Bartlet standing there resolutely.

I always loved the music leading up to the opening credits. On a lot of the big suspenseful episodes, the music just builds and builds
