    Hardback. Condición: Very Good. ?An intimate, compulsively readable account of the dynamics that have shaped?and sometimes destroyed?relations at the top of the American political hierarchy. [and] a valuable addition to the literature of the modern presidency.? ? Wall Street JournalFrom the author of the New York Times bestsellers First Women and The Residence, an intimate, news-making look at the men who are next in line to the most powerful office in the world?the vice presidents of the modern era?from Richard Nixon to Joe Biden to Mike Pence.Vice presidents occupy a unique and important position, living partway in the spotlight and part in the wings. Of the forty-eight vice presidents who have served the United States, fourteen have become president; eight of these have risen to the Oval Office because of a president?s death or assassination, and one became president after his boss?s resignation. John Nance Garner, FDR?s first vice president, famously said the vice presidency is "not worth a bucket of warm piss" (later cleaned up to "warm spit"). But things have changed dramatically in recent years. In interviews with more than two hundred people, including former vice presidents, their family members, and insiders and confidants of every president since Jimmy Carter, Kate Andersen Brower pulls back the curtain and reveals the sometimes cold, sometimes close, and always complicated relationship between our modern presidents and their vice presidents.Brower took us inside the lives of the White House staff and gave us an intimate look at the modern First Ladies; now, in her signature style, she introduces us to the second most powerful men in the world, exploring the lives and roles of thirteen modern vice presidents?eight Republicans and five Democrats. And she shares surprising revelations about the relationship between former Vice President Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama and how Vice President Mike Pence and President Donald Trump interact behind closed doors.From rivals to coworkers, there is a very tangible sense of admiration mixed with jealousy and resentment in nearly all these relationships between the number two and his boss, even the best ones, Brower reveals. Vice presidents owe their position to the president, a connection that affects not only how they are perceived but also their possible future as a presidential candidate?which is tied, for better or worse, to the president they serve. George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan had a famously prickly relationship during the 1980 primary, yet Bush would not have been elected president in 1988 without Reagan?s high approval rating. Al Gore?s 2000 loss, meanwhile, could be attributed to the Monica Lewinsky sex scandal and Bill Clinton?s impeachment. Current Vice President Mike Pence is walking a high-stakes political tightrope as he tries to reassure anxious Republicans while staying on his boss?s good side.This rich dynamic between the president and the vice president has never been fully explored or understood. Compelling and deeply reported, grounded in history and politics, and full of previously untold and incredibly personal stories, First In Line pierces the veil of secrecy enveloping this historic political office to offer us a candid portrait of what it?s truly like to be a heartbeat away.…

    Paperback. Condición: Good. The best political weapon is ridicule, and no one exposes the left's buffoonery and pretensions as PowerLine columnist Susan Vass has been doing once a week in the scathing, pointed and hilarious columns she writes under her pseudonym Ammo Grrrll. This is Book 1 in the series which starts off with a BANG. There are incisive political columnists and there are humorists; it is a rare talent that can combine humor and politics especially in an era where divisiveness is the order of the day. But, this book targets long-term marriage, senior moments, weight control, an epic Amtrak train trip from Minneapolis to Palm Springs, and also takes aim at political correctness in all its invidious forms, attacks on poor Math-challenged Barbie, and the absurd contention that terrorists do what they do because they don't have good jobs. Take a trip down memory lane in the Obama era with Ammo Grrrll and watch her hit the bulls-eye every time.…

Vice presidents owe their position to the president, a connection that affects not only how they are perceived but also their possible future as a presidential candidate?which is tied, for better or worse, to the president they serve. George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan had a famously prickly relationship during the 1980 primary, yet Bush would not have been elected president in 1988 without Reagan?s high approval rating. Al Gore?s 2000 loss, meanwhile, could be attributed to the Monica Lewinsky sex scandal and Bill Clinton?s impeachment. Current Vice President Mike Pence is walking a high-stakes political tightrope as he tries to reassure anxious Republicans while staying on his boss?s good side.This rich dynamic between the president and the vice president has never been fully explored or understood. Compelling and deeply reported, grounded in history and politics, and full of previously untold and incredibly personal stories, First In Line pierces the veil of secrecy enveloping this historic political office to offer us a candid portrait of what it?s truly like to be a heartbeat away.…
