Description: "Donna Brazile fought her first political fight at age nine - campaigning (successfully) for a city council candidate who promised a playground in her neighborhood. The day after Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated, she committed her heart and her future to political and social activism. By the 2000 presidential election, Brazile had become a major player in American political history - and she remains one of the most outspoken and forceful political activists of our day." "Cooking With Grease is an account of Donna's thirty years in politics. Her stories of the leaders and activists who have helped shape America's future are both inspiring and memorable. Donna's style and innovative political strategies have garnered her the respect and admiration of colleagues and adversaries alike - she is as comfortable trading quips with J. C. Watts as she is with her Democratic colleagues."--BOOK JACKET.
