"Today [2002] our president is not just the leader of our national debate, the protector of the public welfare, and the setter of the political agenda; he is also our holder of hands, chucker of chins, stiffener of upper lips, and first celebrity to the nation. Which makes it ironic that he almost was a committee." (U.S. NEWS & WORLD REPORT) The author discusses the presidency throughout history.
