“Packed with fascinating personal perspective and testimony, Michael Takiffs A Complicated Man wholly justifies its title. The book is far more than a kaleidoscopic oral biography of President Bill Clinton. Aspect by aspect, it guides us through the struggles of postmodern America, as the most ambitious baby boomer of his generation seeks to modernize the Democratic Party-and, as in a Greek drama, is fated to be destroyed. Veritably, an all-American saga, with a cast of thousands-favorable and unfavorable.” MenBookAmericaPresidentPartyStruggleGenerationsPerspectiveBabyDramaAspectBillsDemocraticClintonCastsComplicatedGuidesDestroyedTitlesGreekFascinatingJustifyAmbitiousBiographiesTestimonyDemocratic PartySagaPostmodernBoomersBaby BoomerPresident Bill ClintonGreek Drama Author:Nigel Hamilton

“One of the worst elements of Obama's career, which no one talks about, is that he voted twice for a bill that said, if there is a botched abortion, if the child emerges from the womb alive, it should be okay to kill the baby.
