The leader of the free world … CEO of a massive, multiheaded bureaucracy … commander in chief of the most powerful military force on earth … negotiator in chief with Congress and other nations … fundraiser in chief for his own political party. The president of the United States is all of this and more, the dominant figure in U.S.—and now global—politics.
Brian R. Dirck is associate professor of history at Anderson University in Anderson, IN. His published works include ABC-CLIO's Waging War on Trial.
