The US president should have someone reporting directly to him, who has no other mission other than "to wake up every morning thinking: 'What can I do today to keep nuclear weapons out of the hands of terrorists?'" That 2002 recommendation comes from a report co-authored by John Holdren, who is now scientific adviser to US president-elect Barack Obama. It is good news that Holdren understands the key nuclear non-proliferation issues, as bold US leadership is urgently needed to renew such efforts, especially given the damage done to these initiatives under the administration of George W. Bush (see page 250).
