US Government [Wednesday, October 18, 4th period]

Josh was on his cell phone when the government students began arriving. "Ron? Where are you?"

A pause.

"Okay, I should've told you about that bookstore. Sorry."

A longer pause.

"Third door on the right."

A tall man with a serious expression on his face and a buzz cut poked his head into the classroom, glanced around and then walked to the back of the room.

He had an earpiece and a dark suit. Anyone who had ever watched the news could probably guess who was going to come in after him.

Josh bounced to his feet, grinning. "Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States."

A distinguished looking man with a warm smile came into the classroom and shook Josh's hand, clearly thrilled to see him. They exchanged pleasantries before he turned towards the students.

"My name is Jed Bartlet," he said, "and I'm the President of the United States back where Josh comes from. Someone else is apparently President in this dimension?" Josh nodded, looking a bit pained and Jed paused for a moment, clearly mulling that concept over. "I understand that you are learning about the Executive Branch. Josh decided to call in a favor and get me to guest lecture."

He sat down at Josh's desk and smiled. "I'm here to answer any questions you might have about the historical powers of the presidency or my experiences with the job in particular." He looked around the room. "Don't be shy."
