Although presidents may have a difficult time actually leading the
public and Congress, voters still desire strong leadership from
their commander in chief. In Presidential Leadership in Public
Opinion, Jeffrey E. Cohen argues that the perception of
presidential leadership in American politics is affected not so
much by what presidents accomplish but by whether voters think
their president is a good leader. When assessing whether a
president is a good leader, voters ask two questions: does the
president represent me and the nation? And, is the president
strong? Cohen shows that presidential interactions with Congress
affect voter perceptions of presidential representation and
strength. These perceptions have important implications for public
attitudes about American politics. They affect presidential
approval ratings, the performance of candidates in presidential
elections, attitudes toward Congress, and trust in government.
Perceptions of presidential leadership qualities have implications
not only for the presidency but also for the larger political
system.
