Dies und das:
Before President Bartlet's press conference, C. J. instructs him to take his first question from science journalist Lawrence Altman because that will allow the press conference to start with a discussion about MS rather than one about reelection. Bartlet chooses to answer another reporter's question first instead, but there is a shot of a reporter meant to be Altman. Lawrence K. Altman is a qualified medical doctor and, since 1969, a New York Times reporter on medical and scientific issues; although he was portrayed by an actor in this episode, he did write an October 9, 2001, New York Times article about the MS storyline in the context of real-life presidents who have chosen to disclose or to hide health issues. mehrPannen:
Geographische Fehler: The motorcade passes the National Cathedral on the way from the White House to the State Department. In fact, the State Department is only several blocks from the White House (due west of the Ellipse) while the National Cathedral is more than three miles away. mehrDialogzitate:

I am a HUGE fan of this show, and I must agree that this episode is by far the best episode of any television show I have ever seen. The whole sequence at the end with the juxtaposition between Bartlett going to the State Department, and CJ talking to the press and the motorcade passing by as the custodian picks up the cigarette from the floor of the National Cathedral is somehow beautiful, painful, and suspenseful all at the same time- and the Dire Straits song at this point just fits perfectly and evokes such emotion! Also, the symbolism of the cigarette and the portico door and the themes carried over from the flashbacks of Bartlett and Mrs. Landingham in the past and the present are fantastic. This episode takes the watcher through a whole range of emotions, from the opening credits (which for some reason always make me want to just run out and VOTE for something!), to the despair of Mrs. Landingham's death, to the triumph and hope at the end, when a soaking wet Bartlett stands in front of a crowd, puts his hands in his pockets, and prepares to announce his decision to run for re-election. I could watch this episode a hundred times and still love it just as much as the first time I saw it.
