No, the President of the United States does not have a "red button" of any sort, in the Oval Office or elsewhere. Nuclear Missiles cannot be deployed from a direct command from the President; his command must be confirmed by the Secretary of Defence before the military take action. Note that the Secretary of Defence cannot authorize the launch of Nuclear Missiles without the President first doing so.

The briefcase is believed to contain nuclear codes and various pieces of equipment that authorize the deployment of Nuclear Missiles wherever the President is in the world; it functions as a mobile hub in the strategic defense system of the United States.
