I think Amy Poehler and Tina Fey have done so much for women in comedy in the sense that they've normalized it. You don't think, 'I'm going to watch that comedy starring a woman,' you think, 'I'm going to watch that funny show.' They refuse to play the foils for men, or be reduced to the butt of every joke, and I love that about both of them.

Those were the elements that made a story satisfying to me.

In a certain sense, and to a certain extent, he [the president] is the representative of the people. He is elected by them, as well as congress is.

If so, where is the propriety of having a congress?
