All good books mentioned. Forgive me diverting alittle, I think they need to watch the tv series "THE WEST WING". I have watched all seasons a couple of times, as much as it is fiction, i feel every leader ( some one shld please buy the DVD for GEJ and wife) might have one or two things to learn and/or infer from it. I particularly love the level of intelligence the president surrounds himself with. If you ve seen the series, what do u think? 1 Like 1 Share |

Debonair01: That is fine! We need all the help that we can get imo! Havent watched that yet. Is this the one on netflix too? Political Movie thread we should start one together next! But I invite others to add movies too! I am thinking that I might be mixing House of Cards with the West Wing. Im going to check it out, I think the voters should be equally astute as our leader. Thanks again. |
