Skid Roper and Mojo Nixon

This book looks at how John F. Kennedy confronted the challenge of the Cold War, molding the narratives of "consensus history" into the activist rhetoric of the New Frontier. It examines how his image, heroic style of leadership, and legacy -Americas war in Vietnam -had an impact upon his successors. Covering the period from 1960 to the present, the book draws upon a wide variety of sources to illuminate its subjects. After Kennedy, "hero, " came Lyndon Johnson, "casualty of war"; Richard Nixon, "heroic failure"; Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter, "faith-healers"; Ronald Reagan, "star"; George Bush, "deputy"; and Bill Clinton, "survivor." From Kennedys inauguration to Clintons impeachment, the book examines the development of the character of the contemporary presidency during one of the most fascinating and turbulent periods in its history.

"On the surface the new president seems to inherit an empty house," Hugh Heclo, a recognized expert on American democratic institutions, has noted. "In fact, he enters an office already shaped and crowded by other people's desires." "Empowering the White House examines how Richard Nixon entered that crowded Oval Office in 1969 yet managed to change it in a way that augmented the power of the presidency and continues to influence into the twenty-first century how his successors have governed. Nixon's White House is perhaps best remembered for the growth in the size of the staff, which operated under the supposed iron first of H. R. Haldeman. But more important than size and management style to the character of the Nixon White House were the assigned tasks, complexity, and dynamics of the burgeoning staff. Faced with hostile majorities in Congress and executive branch careerists assumed to be committed to a Democratic agenda, Nixon sought to control his political fate by engaging more actively than earlier presidents in public relations and the mobilization of support. At the command and under the control of the Oval Office, the staff carried out assignments designed to fulfill Nixon's aims. This theoretically informed and well-researched study explains how Nixon changed and expanded the institutionalized presidency and how that affected the Ford and Carter administrations. Nixon ushered in a new stage in the modern presidency by organizing and using his increasingly complex staff in new ways that have persisted beyond the 1970s to this day. To a greater degree than any predecessor, Nixon systematized outreach, legal advice and policy formulation. His White House staffing, then, has cometo be regarded as a "standard model" that influences incoming presidents regardless of party affiliation. Leavening this organizational study are revealing accounts of how the Nixon, Ford, and Carter staffs operated behind the scenes in the West Wing.
