Download or read book Debating the Kennedy Presidency written by James N. Giglio and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2003-10-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the brevity of John F. Kennedy's presidency, its significance endures. From the Cuban Missile Crisis and the creation of the Berlin Wall to the Peace Corps and the civil rights movement, Kennedy's presidency was one of crisis and change. In Debating the Kennedy Presidency, noted scholars James N. Giglio and Stephen G. Rabe examine the successes and failures of Kennedy's foreign and domestic policies. Rabe focuses on the administration's foreign relations and argues that JFK was a relentless Cold Warrior who perpetuated the Cold War more than he resolved it. Conversely, Giglio sympathetically surveys domestic policies and defends Kennedy's record by emphasizing the constraints under which the president had to operate. The differing viewpoints of the two authors, as well as the supplementary documents, provide an ideal introduction allowing readers to examine the issues and draw their own conclusions about America's 35th president.

Download or read book Between the Branches written by Kenneth E. Collier and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of the power-fearing drafters of the U.S. Constitution, the president's tools for influencing Congress are quite limited. Presidents have had to look beyond the formal powers of the office to push a legislative agenda. In Between the Branches, a book of unprecedented depth, Kenneth Collier traces the evolution of White House influence in Congress over nine administrations -- from Eisenhower to Clinton. The gulf between the president and Congress is crossed by "unsung warriors", the presidential aides of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs. Collier argues that the experience of these aides -- their roles, problems, and strategies -- provides the best insight on this important relationship. Collier conducted interviews with many of these White House emissaries, as well as with members of Congress, to find the sources of presidential influence not found in broad quantitative studies. Using original documents from presidential libraries, he also provides a detailed comparative analysis of influence in every administration since the first White House office dedicated to working with Congress was established in 1953. Collier concludes that, more than anything else, it is the president's ability to affect lawmakers' chances of reelection that gets results on Capitol Hill. Collier also shows how presidents have continually had to seek out new ways to win legislative victories-including a range of public strategies like election mandates -- because of an evolving paradox: Presidents are elected to lead, but representatives get votes by showing independence from the president. Between the Branches will enlighten students of the presidency, Congress, and all thoseinterested in American politics. "To this multi-administration study collier brings a firm grasp of the existing literature, first-hand examination of the documents in presidential libraries, and elite interviews collected from both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue. The product is a thoroughly documented account of how presidents seek to influence Congress as well as how Congress register reciprocal effects on the president". Joseph A. Pika, University of Delaware

Download or read book Why England Slept written by John F. Kennedy and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2016-04-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1940, Why England Slept was written by then-Harvard student and future American president John F. Kennedy. It was Kennedy's senior thesis that analyzed the tremendous miscalculations of the British leaders in facing Germany on the advent of World War II, and in doing so, also addressed the challenges that democracies face when confronted directly with fascist states. In Why England Slept, at the book's core, John F. Kennedy asks: Why was England so poorly prepared for the war? He provides a comprehensive analysis of the tremendous miscalculations of the British leadership when it came to dealing with Germany and leads readers into considering other questions: Was the poor state of the British army the reason Chamberlain capitulated at Munich, or were there other, less-obvious elements at work that allowed this to happen? Kennedy also looks at similarities to America's position of unpreparedness and makes astute observations about the implications involved. This re-publication of the classic book contains excerpts from the foreword to the 1940 original edition by Henry R. Luce, an American magazine magnate during that era; the foreword to the 1961 edition, also written by Luce; and a new foreword by Stephen C. Schlesinger, written in 2015.
