The president, a first-year chief executive who has inherited ? and tackled ? an economic crisis worse than anything the United States has experienced in decades, doesn't really get vacation amid two wars.
Even so, the White House machine doesn't let its chief take a few days to fly kites or body surf. It has the president at the ready to deal with any crisis, foreign or domestic. Red phones are wired, emergency binders are on the shelves. The president is ready to govern, even from a golf course.
