So answer the question, can a President conduct his business in Maine or Texas?
Every POTUS should take about 4 weeks of "vacation" each to gear down a little. Taking 25% of presidency a vacations/Camp David is grossly extreme. It's purely partisan not to acknowledge this.
Of course he can. Just like he can from the golf course.
No POTUS ever really takes vacation. It's pretty much impossible, and the whole argument is pretty silly.
Of course a POTUS can, but there are things he has to prioritize as he can't take all the people whom he relies on with him on vacation.
As I said before, every POTUS should take vacations. They can't possibly be as effective as they need to be without them. It's the volume of W that was excessive.
But they do gear down when away from the WH. They have a bit more family and personal time. You really can't dispute this.
The family and personal time is extremely important.
Either this is a non-issue...or you are a blind partisan.
Is this going to be a thread where everybody disagrees with the same person?
If so, why not just shut it down?
Of course I can dispute that. I bet every FLOTUS ever would agree. It's just not a job you can gear down from.
Cheney was really President anyway.
