Mit beinahe täglichen Treffen zählte er zu den engsten Vertrauten des US-Präsidenten. Doch was er da sah, überraschte ihn.

After a morning of rain-drenched fury, tens of thousands crowded Washington’s Capitol grounds that day to see Abraham Lincoln take the oath for a second term. As the sun emerged, Lincoln rose to give perhaps the greatest inaugural address in American history, stunning the nation by arguing, in a brief 701 words, that both sides had been wrong, and that the war’s unimaginable horrors - every drop of blood spilled - might well have been God’s just verdict on the national sin of slavery.

Vicente Vallés, gran conocedor del funcionamiento de la política americana, nos da en este audio libro las claves de esta victoria, entre las que no hay que perder de vista que: "Donald Trump es algo más que un tipo histriónico y desafiante. Ha sabido ser lo que muchos americanos estaban buscando: alguien que pusiera boca abajo el sistema político del país, carcomido por décadas de amaneramiento y episodios de abuso."

Most Americans know Andrew Jackson as a frontier rebel against political and diplomatic norms, a "populist" champion of ordinary people against the elitist legacy of the Founding Fathers. Many date the onset of American democracy to his 1829 inauguration.

They all possessed astonishing brilliance, expansive egos, and more than just a little vanity.

Jimmy Carter: America's best ex-president? Only if you're not bothered by the resurgence of Islamic fundamentalist terrorism (which started on his watch), the shamefaced foreign policy of Bill Clinton and John Kerry (ditto), and think that ex-presidents should travel the world coddling dictators and bad-mouthing America la Jesse Jackson. Jimmy Carter has been given a free ride from the liberal media, liberal historians, and even the American people, who excuse his political delinquencies and disasters on the grounds that he is a "good" man.
