Me personally, I'd rather be there so I don't have to rely on others telling me what happened.

I want my future leader there.
So you want your president standing over the Secy of Defense/CENTCOM while they discuss the detalls of an emergency in Iraq that requires a tactical response.

and standing over the Sec of Homeland Security/FEMA whil they discuss the details of responding to a hurricane.

and standing over the Sec of State while she is on the phone with a foreign leader discussing how to respond to a potential flair up on the Russia/Georgia border.

WAIT!!!! What if they are all happening at the same time?

AN EFFECTIVE AND CONFIDENT LEADER delegates to others and has a process in place to be kept in the loop and informed....and engaged when necessary!
