Choosing a President

Presidential Elections
by Nelson W. Polsby
This classic work, updated to reflect 1990s developments, addresses the essential challenges of our contemporary system of choosing a president. Highlighting the complexity and intensity of the selection process, the authors draw attention to the choices politicians make in the light of evolving structures of politics -- political parties, primary elections, national conventions, campaigns and their organizations -- and the emerging study of the behavior of masses of voters.
Hillary's Scheme
by Carl Limbacher
Can this country survive another Clinton presidency? Two terms of “Slick Willy” were bad enough. Now, numerous political experts and people close to the Clinton family hint that Hillary is plotting to retake the White House and ring in another four—or eight—years of a Clinton as commander in chief. She denies any presidential bid is in the works. But a few years before she entered the Senate race, Hillary claimed she would never run for any elective office whatsoever. In shocking detail, Hillary’s Scheme confirms the worst fear of tens of millions of Americans: that Hillary Clinton indeed plans to run for president within the next few years. This explosive, behind-the-scenes book by investigative journalist Carl Limbacher blows the lid off the New York senator’s plans for a grand political coup, something she has been carefully and quietly plotting for more than 20 years. Limbacher conducted extensive research into Hillary’s past and secured exclusive interviews with Clinton insiders—and even questioned Hillary herself—to bring you the real story. What he uncovers are the truly juicy morsels, the backroom deals, and the insider wrangling around Hillary’s presidential ambitions that aren’t being reported in the mainstream press. If you love to hate Hillary or are just curious about one of America’s most controversial figures, there’s plenty in this book to get your blood boiling. You’ll discover the answers to questions Hillary is unwilling to address in public, including: Why is she not likely to wait until 2008 to enter the race for president? How did she torpedo Al Gore’s chances for a rematch with President Bush? Where are the millions of dollars she’s supposedly raising for the Democratic Party really going? Why does she dodge tough questions about her husband’s abysmal record on fighting international terrorism? And many, many more! If you don’t think that Hillary Clinton has a fighting chance to win the presidency, you must read this book. With startling prescience, Limbacher draws parallels between today’s political environment and that which existed in 1992—the year George H. W. Bush lost the race to an upstart governor from Arkansas. You don’t need to be a member of the “vast right-wing conspiracy” or even a Republican to be concerned about what Hillary in the White House would mean for the presidency, the Constitution, and America as we know it.

Smithsonian Inst Pr. PAPERBACK. 1560981784 ISBN: 1560981784 Softcover, 212 pages. VG. A Very Nice Copy! Smithsonian Institution Press, 1992. Government & Politics. Editorial Reviews: From Publishers Weekly A curator at the Smithsonian, Melder ( Beginnings of Sisterhood ) presents persuasive evidence that the so-called "evils" of the modern American political system have existed since the nation's birth, bolstering his argument with illustrations of the hats, buttons, banners and other political memorabilia in the museum's collection. The first president, George Washington, was also the first to be concerned about his image (he was idealized even on a memorial pitcher) and the first to be subjected to smears. The substitution of symbols for rational discourse may have reached its zenith in 1840, when William Henry Harrison's handlers saturated the country with pictures of log cabins designed to reinforce the image of Harrison's rustic simplicity and wartime sacrifice. The real difference between campaigns of yesteryear and those of today appears to be the level of participation of the electorate. Before mass communication, the banners and torches, parades and debates of the "hurrah" era of campaigning tell of a giant, participatory festival that provided not only information but entertainment to generations of Americans. Thanks to Melder, even-20th century media addicts can revisit that era. Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. From School Library Journal YA-- Melder has reached into the Smithsonian's bottomless trunk of Americana and brought up a collection of homegrown political ephemera from banners and buttons to shaving mugs and spittoons, to show how presidential electioneering has been carried on for the last 200 years. The chatty, informative narrative covers the campaigns of presidents from George Washington to George Bush, and makes a perfect accompaniment to the 200 illustrations, half of which are in full color. A delightful way for students to learn about politics, especially in this, an election year. - Richard Lisker, Fairfax Public Library, VA Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. .

Washington and London: Smithsonian Institution Press, 1992. This is a 212 page 9"x11" softcover book. The author traces the rise of political campaigns in America. Politics in the 19th century America was an enormous folk festival that produced banners, flags, ribbons, badges, songs and other novelties.
