The Politician: An Insider's Account of John Edwards's Pursuit of the Presidency and the Scandal That Brought Him Down is a 2010 tell-all book by Andrew Young chronicling over a decade working behind the scenes with former North Carolina senator and presidential candidate John Edwards.  The book reveals details of the extramarital affair Edwards had with Rielle Hunter while his wife was battling cancer.  The book also covers the subsequent cover up of Edwards' affair and the child it produced.  The book also details Edwards' asking Young to go into hiding with Hunter, in part because of his wife's health.  Young goes in depth detailing Edwards' obsession with campaign donations, his fixating on his hair, his loathing of "fat rednecks" at state fairs, and the lengths he went to hide the affair.  Edwards, according to Young, went as far as to ask him to claim paternity of the child.  Young said he asked him to steal a diaper for a paternity test, and find a doctor to fake the results of a paternity test.

John Edwards is a former United States Senator from North Carolina and a Democratic Party vice-presidential and presidential candidate who admitted to an extramarital affair in August 2008.  The affair was initially reported in late-2007 by "The National Enquirer" (a U.S. supermarket tabloid newspaper), but was given little attention outside the tabloid press and political blogosphere.  The "Enquirer" cited claims from an anonymous source that Edwards had engaged in an affair with Rielle Hunter, a filmmaker hired to work for his presidential campaign, and that Hunter had a child from the relationship.  ABC News reported that Andrew Young, a member of Edwards' campaign team, stated that Edwards asked him to "Get a doctor to fake the DNA results ... and to steal a diaper from the baby so he could secretly do a DNA test to find out if this [was] indeed his child."
