Mr. President…

Senator Sheridan is at the main gate with three of his staff, Sir. He says he needs to talk to you urgently.

Sheridan!? What on earth does he want with me here? Right in the middle of the electoral campaign as well. He's certainly not lacking in nerve.

May I remind you that Sheridan is a member of the Congressional budget comite and in that capacity he has the right to see how we are spending the defense budget.

Mmm, I know. He could have at least warned us that he was coming.

Alright then, let them in. And waive all the normal entry procedures, I don't want another discourse on the excesses of the military from him.

OK, in you go! Go down the ramp on the left, over there.
