Prime Minister's Question (PMQ) Time
John McCain campaigned (at least for a while) on the idea of coming before Congress to answer questions a la the British Prime Minister.

Bill Clinton was publicly encouraged to hold a PMQ by members of his own party, but demurred; PMQ was not an option for other Presidents (like 40 and 43, linked in this entry with the immortal words "What the President meant to say...")
