Over the years that followed-and to this day-the presidents relied
on, misunderstood, sabotaged, and formed alliances with one another
that changed history. The world's most exclusive fraternity is a
complicated place: its members are bound forever because they sat
in the Oval Office and know its secrets, yet they are immortal
rivals for history's favour. Some presidents needed their
predecessors to keep their secrets; others needed them to
disappear. Truman enlisted Hoover to help him save Europe; Kennedy
turned to Ike on Cuba; Nixon sought Johnson's advice on getting
re-elected, but then tried to blackmail him; Ford and Carter
couldn't stand each other until they saw what they had in common;
Reagan and Clinton relied on Nixon as an emissary to Russia; Bush
put Clinton and his father to work and they became like father and
son; and Obama and Clinton became quiet rivals for the same crown.
ThePresidents Clubwill change the way we think about the
presidency, for the club itself is an instrument of presidential
power.
