Answer: C.J

That's a great question, Katie.

The planet Mars is 4.6 billion years old." C.J told him not to show off and he replied smartly, "Yes, God forbid, that while talking to 60,000 public school students, the President should appear smart!" The President goes on to answer another question, "Stevie, fourth grader, PS 31, Manhattan, asks, "What is the temperature on Mars?" Well, Stevie, if one of our expert panelists were here, they would tell you the average temperature ranges from 15 degrees to minus 140." C.J observes, "That happens to be wrong.

It ranges from 60 to minus 225" and the President informs her, "I converted it to Celsius in my head." C.J just stares back in dismay.

Answer: Leo

Leo informed the President that he would have to go to the Kennedy Center to see the Reykjavik Symphony Orchestra with the Icelandic Ambassador as the President cancelled their meeting. Leo tells the President that he has to go because "Iceland is considering defying the ban on whale hunting, imposed by the International Whaling Commission.

They're in danger of joining Norway and Japan. There's a lucrative international demand for fresh Icelandic mink whale meat." When Leo said, "Think of the whales", the President simply said, "Do they vote?"

Answer: Donna

Throughout the episode, Josh and Donna were discussing who to put on the next stamp and Donna couldn't see why Marcus Aquino wasn't a good choice to put on the stamp simply because he advocated Puerto Rico statehood.
