Customer Reviews

Great political reading to keep off the election year blues

This book is neatly organized into sections devoted to topics upon which politicians are apt to speak: getting elected, foreign affairs, D.C., war, money, power, etc. There is an index in the back allowing you to search by person quoted. It is full of wonderful gems of millennia of political insight as well as biting humor about the American political system such as "George Washington is the only president who didn't blame the previous administration for his troubles." -Unknown
