When People Travel Here From

A White House Dinner Is The American Family Assembled, From Labor Leaders To Billionaires, Actors, Architects, Academicians And Athletes.

When People Travel Here From Across The Country, They Shed Jealousies And Politics And Prejudices. The Mighty Climb Down. The Humble Are Elevated.

We Are Creating A Political Demolition Derby, Not A Presidential Debate. Those Strange Impulses In The American Soul That Have Produced Mud Wrestling And The Gong Show Seem To Have Claimed The National Campaign.

In Just 20 Years Terrorism, Communications, The Jet Plane And The Increase Of Wealth And Knowledge Have Forced, To Varying Degrees, World Leaders Into A Haunted And Secret Peerage Whose Links With The People They Guide Are Meticulously Cleansed And Staged.

We Love The Blather And Boast, The Charge And Counter-charge Of Campaigning. Governing Is A Tougher Deal.
