A New Staff Position?

(3)

President Bush is flying pretty low in the polls nowadays, and there is much speculation concerning how to raise the numbers, so to say. There is even talk of a new staff position, perhaps 'cabinet level,' which would be charged with the task of keeping the administration on a politically popular track. I have a suggestion for such a new cabinet level position.

The new position would be called, simply, 'Media Advisor,' or 'Secretary of the Media.' It would be the job of the Media Advisor to watch tv, listen to radio, and read the newspapers, all for the purpose of advising the president on the 'current national pulse.' It seems to me that this administration in particular would benefit from such a new staff position.

It would be a powerful position, of course, with various sub entities who would spy on the media of other nations in order to present the president with a global version, a global pulse if you will. I think that such a position would greately enhance White House performance in the Information Age.
