Susan, would you like to start this one off?

Sure.

Thank you, Mike.

Hi, everybody.

It's good to be with you.

I think, well, as I'm sure we'd all agree, to a substantial extent, the NSC itself, its structure, its function does need to reflect the style and the orientation of any given president.

However, since the National Security Act, 1947, there has been some degree of consistency, some degree of structure and process and rigor, which I think has traditionally served our nation well.

I think that's a snapshot of where things stand at this point.
