You seem to have hit upon my weak spot. There are very few shows that I’ve paid any attention to over the past several years, and _The West Wing_ is one I’ve never seen. I was thinking it was an artist or an actor. > [@Elendil\_s\_Heir](#): > > DQ: American? 1. I am female. 2. I am not fictional. 3.
