TODD: “I’ve had former aides of yours, plenty of supporters of yours, say to me, 'He looks exhausted.' And understandable, lot going on. This is not— been a rough year. Are you exhausted?”
OBAMA: “You know, I actually feel, energized about the opportunities, that we’ve got. There are days where I’m not getting enough sleep, because we’ve got a lot on our plate. You know, when you’re, when you’re president of the United States, you’re not just dealing with the United States, as we saw during the NATO summit. If there’s a problem in Ukraine, we’re the ones who are expected to mobilize the world community to isolate Russia, put pressure, support Ukrainians, and to vindicate the principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity and freedom that we stand for. If there’s a problem in the Middle East, the expectation is that we create the coalitions to deal with a problem like ISIL. If there’s an issue in Africa around Ebola we need to help mobilize that public health infrastructure. And so you know, it’s not just me. It’s my staff also, that we’re, you know, our inbox gets pretty high."
