A good President must surround himself/herself with talented people who are ready to call the President at 3 A.M. and provide him with the information needed to make an informed decision.

The red phone...from a technical standpoint....was ONLY the direct line from Washington to Moscow...

I would imagine an actually emergency phone call would go through the White House switchboard...

A lot depends on the time of day,still..I doubt the President would make any decision on the spot "without" confirmation.

The president answers that phone? I bet someone answers it for him/her.
