“Politicians generally form alliances and not friendships. Individuals and institutions achieve their ends through continual barter. But deals are not bonds. Indeed, intense emotional involvement with anything - with issues, ideology, a woman, even a family - can be a handicap, not only consuming valuable time, but more importantly, reducing flexibility and the capacity for detached calculation needed to take maximum advantage of continually changing circumstances.” EndsFormIndividualDealsIssuesAchieveEmotionalNeededPoliticianCircumstancesAdvantageCapacityInstitutionsValuableIntenseIdeologyFlexibilityMaximumInvolvementConsumingReducingAlliancesCalculationsDetachedHandicapsNot FriendsValuable Time Book:Lyndon Johnson and the American Dream Source: Lyndon Johnson and the American Dream

“The biggest issue for me is whether large numbers of Americans can begin to think that government can actually help make the country a fairer place. And that's partly a matter of policies that achieve results in terms of reducing inequality and raising middle-class and working-class incomes, which have been flat for decades. But it's also symbolic and rhetorical, it's whether Hillary Clinton can - or whoever's president - can persuade Americans that it's happening and that they can begin to trust their elected officials a little bit more and their institutions of government a little bit more.” ThinkingLittlesHas BeensCountryMatterHelpingGovernmentBitsPresidentTermResultsNumbersClassIssuesMiddleAchievePolicyLittle BitHappeningsInstitutionsClintonDecadesIncomeInequalityOfficialsMiddle ClassFlatsWorking ClassReducingSymbolicLarge NumbersRhetoricalElected Officials Author:George Packer
