You obviously know little about electronics. The size cable required
to carry the signal from a small microphone is absolutely tiny, a
small fraction of the size that headphone cables need to be (since
they carry many times more current, and are MUCH larger than they need
to be since the limitation is physical, not electrical).

Same thing with headphone cables, since the current they carry is
minuscule.

Uh huh... pehaps you could tell us all WHY the POTUS would be wearing
a wire at all

So that someone could tell him what to say, in case he forgot the
script, or the subject matter strayed from it. You don;t really
expect Shrub to sound sane extemporaneously, do you? He doesn't do
that good a job of it when he's reading a prepared statement.
