What a great actor enjoyed him since The Dead Zone, but this reminds me of the demigod speech when Trump won the election oh so long ago. I am glad he pops up from time to time though, so I don't forget he is still alive.

Thank you for this coverage and showing the strength of unity. We of the unions SAG-AFTRA, WGA & IATSE are awaiting fair treatment for good services rendered, by those CEOs who benefit from the profits of the artists they've been using for their own gains.

President Bartlett was probably the best President we have had in years.

Martin Sheen's portrayal of Senator Greg Stillson in Stephen King's The Dead Zone always gave me chills, if no one's ever seen that movie you should watch it, it's one of his best performances

Final Fantasy The Spirits Within was 100% CGI and was a great film. AI actors will replace real actors. Sorry Hollywood but you can feel the pain of real Americans. Goodbye Academy Awards and Oscars. Actor of the year goes to John Doe.

I've watched the entire West Wing series twice, and probably will again. Just brilliant! Martin Sheen is one of my favorite actors, one of my favorite public people, and without a doubt, my favorite president.

Barlett's presidency was a fantasy. Joe Biden is dealing with a divided country on a very real daily basis. He is getting important things done with the support of the Democratic Congress despite the fascist republican congress. Martin Sheen is more an inspiration in real life than the fictional president he portrayed. GO UNION !

So Mr. Sheen says, and then goes back to his mansion.
Disgusting

I feel like if any actor would be a good president, it would be Martin Sheen.

I'm so tired of the wall-to-wall Trump coverage when the world is burning. I wish MSNBC would have at least one prime-time show that covers world news and devotes a significant amount of time to coverage of world-wide climate change and not the typical disaster coverage.

Excellent Speaker. Great Message. Amazing how the greedy media and motion picture CEO's are still holding out. You'd think all the money made on films and streaming was only due to them. What arrogance, and I wish every striking member vigilance in their fight, and vindication.

Wow! Martin's reading was so powerful! Now I'm going to have to watch the West Wing (I have seen him in other things – mainly Apocalypse Now and a few other films). 🙌🏽

I think his fictional team could have done a much better job than trump’s admin.
