T he concept for The Keys to Power: Managing the Presidency emerged from several students who wanted to know why we skipped around during class from one textbook to another. My course on presidential decision-making utilized a number of different textbooks, in addition to the standard literature on the presidency, in order to ensure that we covered the wide range of material. I was particularly interested in analyzing the institutional resources available to the president for policy-making and policy implementation. These institutional resources included the vice president, the cabinet and the departments, the White House staff, and the Executive Office of the President. Few textbooks examine the role of these significant institutional resources in presidential decision-making.

Second Edition

The second edition of this book, completed in the summer of 2004, explores how the administration of President George W. Bush has impacted our understanding of the presidency. In particular, four chapters have been significantly affected by the Bush presidency. The on the elections process. The chapter now includes a lengthy discussion of the 2000 election between Vice President Al Gore and Governor George W. Bush. There are new charts with elections statistics, new in-text boxes on the election, a detailed discussion of the Florida recount and the ensuing state legal actions including the Supreme Court appeal. The 2000 election becomes the fifth controversial election in American history, in addition to the elections of 1800, 1824, 1876, and 1888, and the first controversial election in 112 years.

The to have major revisions involves the cabinet, including its diversity, its adherence to ideological conservatism, and its reliance on the subcabinet for policy development. President George W. Bush continued the cabinet building strategy of diversity in his cabinet that President Bill Clinton had initiated. The Bush cabinet was populated with as many women and minorities as the Clinton cabinet had been, which was a significant break from the white male dominated cabinet of his two most recent Republican predecessors, George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan. However, the subcabinet of George W. Bush was dominated by white males who were focused on the conservative ideology of the president. At the heart of all of the appointments within the administration was the theme of conservative Republican values.

The to be significantly revised as a result of the 2000 election involved that of the vice presidency. Dick Cheney became the most powerful vice president in history during his tenure in the Bush administration. Our traditional model of the modern vice president as a political adviser was replaced by the Cheney model of an active participant in political and policy decision-making. Cheney broke all of the rules that had governed the vice presidency by becoming a key member of the presidents inner circle with a large staff and with key functional assignments.
