Imagine how funny that would be.
I think nearly all Presidents go into the situation room not having any real idea of what is going on or how to handle a situation. Can you honestly tell me Obama had a firm grasp of the Jewish / Palestinian situation, and have ideas on how to fix it? Maybe more than you and I, but only barely so.

I think being President of the United States is the most challenging job there is. And just when the President thinks they are doing a good job, something they had no idea existed suddenly pops up and smacks them silly.
