How did a man who reportedly showed little interest in government or knowledge of politics rise to become President of the United States with an approval rating of over 70 percent?
Many believe that the strength of the Bush machine lies not in its leader, but in Karl Rove, the man who picked Bush to run for the Texas governorship, tutored him on the workings of government, and ran brilliant campaigns to sweep him into the Presidency.
The forthcoming book -“Bush''''s Brain" shows how Rove’s strategic decisions are determining US foreign policy for the Bush administration.
Authors Moore and Slater detail the making of Karl Rove’s greatest creation, George W. Bush, and the continuing efforts to keep him on top.
This look at the Bush organisation will shine a light on its most important and powerful advisor, Rove, and how he has shaped George W. Bush and his administration.
With the recent departure of Karen Hughes (Senior Presidential Advisor and White House Counselor), Karl Rove has become the single most important advisor to George W. Bush.
The book shows that Rove’s hand can be seen in almost every presidential decision from the ware on terrorism to the Middle East crisis, it eatures previously unreported information on the Bush campaign and centres on debate around Bush’s mental capacity – is he an underestimated genius or a puppet for his political handlers?
