The Choice: How Clinton Won (1997)
by Bob Woodward
Based on a massive body of original reporting and
documentation and on hundreds of interviews with firsthand sources,
The Choice is the behind-the-scenes story of President
Bill Clinton and Senate Majority
Leader Bob Dole over the last two years.
It is the personal and political story of how the nation's two top
leaders prepared themselves to square off for the 1996 presidential
election.
Never before has political reporting provided voters with so much
authoritative, in-depth information on the candidates before a
presidential election. The Choice sets the stage for the November
5, 1996, election with a study of the contenders in action-- their
decisions, their conversations, their private assessments, their
disappointments, their anger and triumphs, their definitions of
themselves and their evolving understanding of national purpose.
Included in this wide-ranging political history is exclusive new
material on the Republican primary contest; the White House and
congressional budget battles; the top secret Bosnia strategy sessions in
the White House; the influence of Vice
President Albert Gore, Jr., and House Speaker
Newt Gingrich; the role of
political money; the uses of public opinion polling and advertising;
former General Colin Powell's decision not to run; and the strategies of
both campaigns, including Dole's decision to leave the Senate and his
consideration of possible running mates.
Woodward has dug deeply into the personal and political relationship
between Clinton and Dole, revealing their private conversations as these
most tested products of the American system attempt to balance political
gain against the welfare of the country. The Choice is also a
character study of the two men and their wives,
Hillary Rodham Clinton and Elizabeth Dole.
