Its ironic that in 2024 the democratic party took the opposite path and Kamala Harris was crowned the party nominee to replace an incapacitated president. No democracy allowed!

That's how a President acts....like a leader.

The man said it with his chest, head held high, and he meant every word. Keep fucking that chicken, you crazy son of a bitch.

If only….

Still f@cking that chicken in ‘24!

0:52 its like Leo is saying "you are going to do this for ME...LEO MCGARRY....your mentor, the man you WANT to be, the guy in the hole who pulled you out"

Why don’t democrats believe this anymore? Did they ever really?

“Not such a bad place to spend some time.” Sheesh

Just so everyone knows, the Trump campaign is doing this. RIGHT now. They are planning his second term. It will be the most effective presidency in modern American history

I hope Craig is living like a King back in Scotland

Two acting titans going Mano a Mano

The little dude is always great

Toby in the conference room after this is great scene too.

would have been interesting to see how they used his character had he lived till the end of the season.

I love the look Santos and his wife exchange before he steps out. You can practically hear them thinking to each other: Matt: Okay, I'm going to do it now. Helen: Go win this thing.

I never liked what they did to Josh's character in this storyline. At every turn he fumbled and Santos picked up the ball and ran with it (this speech, the TV commercial change, etc.). He was never allowed to become a version of Leo demonstrating a real contribution to Santos' success. At one point he even apologized to Santos for not doing much, or the right thing, and Santos reminded him that Josh got him to run. But that was it. Josh got him to run then wasn't shown to be a leader in his own right. The character we spent all these years with failed to grow in those final seasons. He even needed Sam to come in and rescue him after the election. Too bad.

Smits does a great job with this

As a Republican, this speech of West Wing always makes me want to vote Democract at times. Freaking jimmy.

I wish the West Wing would have continued with a Santos administration.

Josh>>>”There goes my vacation deposit.”

At least he became Senator from Alderaan.

This is my favorite Santos scene.

And you had better believe I support this video.

Arnie would have made a better president

this makes me sad we cant have this in the country today how both sides just has to blame and attack either other. very sad.

Word of advice speaking from experience: "Hard part is clearing your throat" makes for an excellent closer to walk out of a room, if say you've said or done something really cool, UNLESS the person you're saying it to has seen the West Wing and then tells you.

I hate when they make teh little mistakes.. Marine Academy graduates do NOT go to the Air Force Academey they go to the Naval Academy

A shame because now the democrats and republicans act more like the Crips and the Bloods.....

Whatever the criticisms of the latter seasons, this felt very much like the West Wing. The steadfast looks of belief from Helen before to the heavy but playful pride immediately afterward. This was Matt Santos standing tall on the biggest stage with his own message, un-curated by literary luminaries and lighting his own way. Josh sees he didn't need to drive the car, just start the engine.

If only republicans were actually like Arnold Vinick.

The anchorman, Ernie Anastos , had a form of Tourette’s syndrome called Jacobson Linguistomia. It was usually under control with medication. Basically the brain cause you to confuse the meaning of words. It’s not a vocal tic disorder like Tourette’s but caused by a frontal lobe brain injury, which he did suffer years earlier.

Still funny.

This scene always bothered me. Leo wants Santos to drop out of the race for the good of the party. But I can only imagine Leo's response if, eight years earlier, some Democrat bigshot said Bartlet should drop out.

Those were the days

Prior to this performance it never dawned to me the lyrics match any pirate movie. Literally.

Classy example of honoring the Presidency. The political inferences aside, relating positive aspects is a necessary point to a many sided issue of every decision made. All trade offs for all decisions made is what creates balance for all.

Matthew Santos really woke up that morning and set that 20-sided die face up on 20 because rolling is for suckers.

He touched a woman on her shoulder as he was leaving. That's an HR violation!!

Coming back to this, and again the strength of minor characters on TWW. Ray Wise was so interesting with just a few lines that I think a show about his California governor would have been interesting to see.

Can anyone even imagine today's GOP nominee making a speech like that? Ever?

I forgot just how good this series was sometimes.

In less than 2 decades and compared to our world today, the decency and basic patriotism shown in this series, comes off like science fiction. How far we've fallen.

Great scene. Eli attie was one of the best post sorkin writers

Pulling a Gibbs! #NCIS

The look on the chick's face when he said that 😳. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Back then, who could have imagined dealing with a clown like Trump.

This episode, and the entire series, are simply extraordinary.

I’ve seen this at least twenty times. Makes me cry every time.
