The President, the Public, and the Parties
註釋The presidency is a highly public and political office with presidents drawing much of their support and political power from groups outside the government. The President, the Public, and the Parties examines presidential relationships with these influential groups, the largest being the American public itself. Presidents need public support to advance their legislative and political agendas. Presidents must be able to communicate their ideas and programs effectively through appearances and speeches, yet they must also heed public opinion, measured in the modern era through polls.
