Went hunting for Aaron Sorkin& #39;s best moments over the last couple of days. Surprisingly, there& #39;s a West Wing special happening too. This Colbert clip is literally everything I was thinking and more.

Shall We Tell The President series was what had got me deeply interested in American politics so much so that when the internet replaced encyclopaedias, one of the first things I read about was about political systems in key countries. These were my teen thrills https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙄" title="Gesicht mit rollenden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit rollenden Augen">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙄" title="Gesicht mit rollenden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit rollenden Augen">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙄" title="Gesicht mit rollenden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit rollenden Augen">

When Josiah Bartlet had come along, I& #39;d felt giddy with excitement, lol. To this day though, I remember the India episode, which when it had been complemented by my reading of NYT& #39;s India coverage had told me, even back then, that white people perception was a v different thing.

That said, it& #39;s fiction that brings out, most beautifully, the dignity of American politics. Which is why Trump is even more shocking for some of us. Haha.

Of course, every time I see anything West Wing, I go on a frantic googling trip of MS symptoms. I& #39;ll never ever forget the first scene where I registered that Bartlet& #39;s inability to hold a pen because of a shaking hand was a sign of something super serious.
