"A precise, plainspoken primer for the people who become president,
as well as for the people who elect them." --Booklist
"Thomas, the doyenne of the White House press corps for over 30
years, stops asking questions and starts giving answers in this
how-to guide to the American presidency. Her incessant questioning
of power drives home the underlying message of the book: it's a
primer not, at heart, for those who would be president but for
those who would elect one." --Publishers Weekly
