Intellectuals and the American Presidency examines the complex
relationships between Presidents and America's intellectuals since
1960. From Arthur Schlesinger's work in John Kennedy's campaign and
administration to Daniel Patrick Moynihan's role as the Democrat in
the Nixon White House, through Sidney Blumenthal's efforts to
secure intellectual support for a scandal-plagued Bill Clinton,
every president since 1960 has had to address the question of
intellectual support. Using both popular sources and some never
before used archived material, Intellectuals and the American
Presidency looks at the advisers who served as liaisons to the
academic community, the presidents' views of those intellectuals
and how they fit in with the presidents' plans. In this bipartisan
study, political insider Tevi Troy analyzes how American presidents
have used intellectuals to shape their images and advance their
agendas.
