The Politician, His Habits, Outcries and Protective Coloring: A Textbook for Office-Seekers (and for Enlightened Voters), Setting Forth Infallible ... Examples From the Careers of Contemporary Am

James Harold Wallis

Description:Excerpt from The Politician, His Habits, Outcries and Protective Coloring: A d104book for Office-Seekers (and for Enlightened Voters), Setting Forth Infallible Guides to Political Success, Illustrated and Enriched With Many Examples From the Careers of Contemporary American Politicians, Complete With an AppendixNot only is American democracy as worthy of a text book as was Renaissance despotism, but the methods and practices of American politicians are as worthy of being recorded and analyzed as were those of Italian despots. Machiavelli held up Cesare Borgia as the ideal prince, the man whose actions and whose craft served as a model to be emulated by all aspiring to rule. And it must be agreed that Cesare Borgia acted with almost perfect skill in coping with the conditions of his time. Yet even this ideal prince, as Machiavelli points out, made one mistake and it was fatal. In the United States we do not have now, nor have we had in recent years, one politician who stands out above his fellows as the handsome and ruthless son of Alexander VI stood out above the other Italian princes of his day. But America has had and now has successful politicians whose careers furnish to aspiring office-seekers examples of conduct as valuable as those Machiavelli was able to find in the life of his perfect, or almost-perfect, hero. And, if some of the American politicians whose skill made them worthy of emulation were defeated after a period of great success, they remain.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
