Title: The race to the White House
Description: "On November 4, 2008, Americans will choose their forty-fourth president. The wide-open primaries and presidential campaign have revolved around two of the most historically contentious issues in U.S. politics: race and the use of American power abroad." "Is America ready to elect an African American president? Or, for that matter, a woman? How will both parties re-imagine America's role in the world in the aftermath of the botched occupation of Iraq? And what are the implications for Canada of a Democratic or Republican victory?" "This book offers a written record of the talks that Camille Paglia, Shelby Steele, James Carville, and David Gergen gave, complete with the spirited, probing question and answer periods that followed."--book jacket.
