Shaping the 44th Presidency
Jones, Charles O.; Dunn Tenpas, Kathryn
Brookings Institution, Issues in Governance Studies, #9, Web posted August 20, 2007, 8p
"This paper compares the Eisenhower, Reagan, and Clinton presidencies before it turns to Bush 43.  The comparison of the first three helps “to explain the type of presidency being formed in the last two years.”  The paper reveals the commonalities and the differences across these administrations. The conclusion is that the “44th president will inherit a diminished presidency in a system that appears now to be pitted against itself.” Charles O. Jones is the Hawkins Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Kathryn Dunn Tenpas is a Brookings Nonresident Senior Fellow and Director of the University of Pennsylvania.
