      Even with the best Veteran's care there will still be those who fall through the cracks. Some because they feel they don't deserve the care they need, for whatever reason whether it be pride, shame, you name it. We are only human, vulnerable to all the sins.
      What is important is that we do try to do what we can.
      Toby did try. He made it his mission to find anybody important to that veteran so they could reach closure and feel comfort that someone cared.
      And President Bartlett let it happen.

    Ive always felt that Bartletts four closest advisors (Toby, Leo, Josh, and CJ) represented four distinct aspects of his greatness. Josh represents loyalty. CJ, compassion. Leo, integrity. And Toby represents morality. The also each have an episode where the main story line is dedicated to that.

    I think it says a lot that what you see in the clip is a real Marine Corps honour guard doing exactly what they would do at a real funeral. The approach of the show and the powerful message about service (no veteran left behind, etc) persuaded the powers-that-be to allow this to be filmed at Arlington as if it was real. Most shows don't receive that kind of cooperation but then again The West Wing definitely wasn't most shows.

      The fact that the solemnity of the funeral was punctuated by the White House staff appearing "in formation" during the singing of "The Little Drummer Boy" makes me bawl my eyes out.
      Everything about this scene lends great respect to our military who laid down their limbs & lives for the preservation of our country, & our democracy. We, The People, owe our military a debt that can never be repaid.

    We can conclude that (1) he cares very much for people he has never and will never meet and (2) he could not care less about what people think of him, even if that means staring down the President of the United States...while standing IN the Oval Office.

    This is one of the greatest episodes in TV history! The story starts with a unique, sad, and interesting coincidence, slowly building in its gravity and importance before culminating in the funeral scene, which is beyond powerful! While it is evident that this show's point of view leans to one side of the aisle, I always loved how it showed respect for the other side, and wasn't afraid to incorporate elements of spirituality and religious doctrine to make scenes more meaningful. The montage at the end is a perfect example of this. It conveyed the message more meaningfully and powerfully than any dialogue ever could.

    Loved this show, and I cry so hard every time I watch this episode. It brings back memories of when my mom was presented with the flag at my dad's funeral, for sure, but what breaks me is how many of our veterans wind up like this and don't get the recognition. If only there was a Toby for each one of them. Just heartbreaking

    One question I have is who's the other guy who's in attendance. I don't think they ever said. There's Toby and Ms. Landingham (obviously not the 'guy') and the homeless brother, but who's the 4th, who's standing in the final scene. Another brother? The father? A fellow marine? I don't think they ever said.

      Fascism was the ubiquitous with huge, infact totalitarian government…..
      How you can think the people advocating for small government are the side of fascism really shows off your ignorance.

I mean as the other commentor said that is technically left to the fascism that has taken over the GOP now but still they are not leftists..... Even "the squad" is only center left.... Also yes announcing you will not think correctly is exactly what I would expect from someone bragging about being a conservative Republican Latino.... leftists literally can not be fascist as fascism is a far right ideology.
