	Commander in Chief (television) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Commander in Chief is a television drama focusing on the presidential administration and family of Mackenzie Allen (portrayed by Geena Davis), the first female President of the United States, who ascends to the role after the previous chief executive, Teddy Bridges (played by Will Lyman), dies in office from a sudden ruptured cerebral aneurysm.
		The universe of Commander in Chief shares a great deal of recent history with our own: in the first episode, Vice Presidents Al Gore and Dick Cheney are mentioned, suggesting that the show's universe diverges from our own at least sometime after 2001.
		As on the political drama The West Wing, the world of Commander in Chief includes both real countries (such as Nigeria and Iraq), as well as fictitious ones (such as the South American country of San Pasquale).

		Everyone, including the dying president himself, encourages Mac to resign, insisting that her place on the ticket was purely symbolic in the first place and that the country needs a leader who can carry out the incumbent's conservative mandate.
		Much domestic comedy is wrung from the emasculation of Mac's husband Rod Calloway (Kyle Secor), who served as her chief of staff in her Veep days but has now been demoted to "first lady" status (there's not even any discussion of how to adjust the nomenclature for a male occupant of the office).

		Harry J. Lennix: Well, I think that the obvious difference is one of looking at a female that is empowered with the highest privileges and responsibilities of the land, and seeing that she is capable of handling all those pressures.
		I think Jim initially was shocked by the death of his friend and commander in chief, President Bridges, and when it appeared that Mackenzie Allen was not going to follow the wishes of the president [to resign from office], he wanted to protect the legacy of this man whom he had served.
		The chief of staff really didn't start until [President] Eisenhower, who kind of created that position, but the one most noticeable incident of a chief of staff clashing with a first lady was Donald Regan, who clashed with Nancy Reagan — and he got fired.

	INFO WAR by William thomas
		Having learned from another war the power of televised images of American corpses to turn American public opinion against administration policies, during the last Bush bombing of Iraq in 1991, truth became the first and last casualties of a “war” that was really a one-sided slaughter.
		But while Arab, British and European news stations continue to highlight debate over the war’s illegality, U.S. “anchors” more mindful of their paychecks and perks than journalistic integrity are careful not to point out that American cluster bomb attacks on heavily populated cities absolutely violate internationally agreed rules for the conduct of war.
		Ambushed by info, U.S. military commanders confident in their overwhelming firepower are increasingly expressing concern that the "velocity of information" is spinning out of their control.

	SignOnSanDiego.com > In Iraq -- Bush emerges as a wartime commander in chief
		From the moment the Republican president is piped aboard the massive aircraft carrier to the salutes of thousands of sailors and Marines until his departure the following morning, Bush will be enveloped within a military community that seems increasingly comfortable with his leadership style after eight years of battles with his Democratic predecessor.
		That trust was evident in the hours leading up to the war when he consulted closely with his military high command, and particularly with Gen. Tommy Franks of U.S. Central Command, before launching the opening air strikes and subsequent invasion.
		It was at that point that the White House decided to elevate the already-planned speech aboard the Lincoln to a major address by formally asking the major television networks for coverage.

		John Kerry intensified his efforts to persuade Americans to change their commander in chief yesterday, saying he would move more swiftly on national security than President George Bush, and promising to lessen the burden on US forces in Iraq.
		The theme of national security ran through Mr Kerry's appearances on the morning television shows yesterday as he worked hard to capitalise on his military credentials at last week's Democratic convention.
		That was still too close to comfort for Mr Bush, who is going to use the days ahead to lay out his second term agenda before the Republican convention at the end of the month.
