And every year, at the Gridiron Dinner or the White House Correspondents Dinner, politicians try to be funny at their own expense for this very reason. My experience is primarily with former President Clinton, who presented a bit of a challenge. The press was making a big deal about how it must feel to be so isolated and alone in the White House. My original idea was to work with "The Sopranos" cast and have President Clinton talk to Dr. Jennifer Melfi, the mobster psychiatrist, about his isolation. "The White House staff didn't want Jared joining me, but my father gave him clearance to anyway."
