Obama's Inauguration Ceremony: in 1 month, 17 days, 10 hours, 33 minutes, 21 seconds


One for Aaron Sorkin fans: Jed Bartlet’s advice to Barack Obama

No, really.

Don’t wet yourself, West Wing fans. But Aaron Sorkin has penned a conversation between President Jed Bartlet and wannabe president Barack Obama.

He wrote it for Maureen Dowd at the New York Times, it touches on elitism (after I wrote this West Wing-referencing post!), and you can read it here.

(Favourite line? “I won’t lie to you, being fictional was a big advantage”. Followed closely by: “Have you tried doing a two-hour special or a really good Christmas show?”)
