What is your insight into president barack obama because of four dinners with them . He is a highly intelligent man. He is keenly interested in history and the way in which the president ial institution has evolved. What he could take away from past president ial performances to make his a more compelling and more successful administration. I wish we had some extraordinary answers to provide him, but of course the nature of history is that it is an imperfect humanistic enterprise. He understood this. We talked a Great Variety of things in those interviews, in those dinners. Roughly 12 historians. I wasnt the only one there. ,ome of his principal aides including one of his principal speechwriters. For me it was a fascinating experience to be able to sit right next to the president at dinner and have this kind of exchange with him. Anmany ways, it felt like academic seminar.

How did Franklin Roosevelt do it . Theodore roosevelt, woodrow wilson, Ronald Reagan with his reagan revolution. At the second dinner, because this was in 2010, he was slipping somewhat in th ....
