The Agenda: Inside the Clinton White House पीडीएफ बॉब वुडवर्ड
The Agenda is a day-by-day, often minute-by-minute account of Bill Clinton's White House. Drawing on hundreds of interviews, confidential internal memos, diaries, and meeting notes, Woodward shows how Clinton and his advisers grappled with questions of lasting importance -- the federal deficit, health care, welfare reform, taxes, jobs. One of the most intimate portraits of a sitting president ever published, this edition includes an afterword on Clinton's efforts to save his presidency.
"AT THE HEART OF BILL CLINTON’S 1992 presidential campaign was his pledge to fix the economy and to use the presidency to do it. The fundamental difference between George Bush and himself, Clinton said, was his belief in an activist role for the government. “I know how President Lincoln felt when General McClellan wouldn’t attack in the Civil War,” Clinton said when he accepted the Democratic Party’s nomination on July 16, 1992. “He asked him, ‘If you’re not going to use your army, may I borrow it?’ And so I say: George Bush, if you won’t use your power to help people, step aside, I will.” This book is about President Clinton’s effort to make good on his promise, “I will.”
