This deep interest in the lifestyle of the rich and fashionable is explored in contrast to the norms of European societies, where the admiration for aristocracy is often rooted in centuries of tradition and hereditary privilege. In contrast, America’s lack of a…-

Chapter 8 of the 2008 presidential election was more than just a political contest—it was a moment of cultural reckoning that reflected deep divisions within American society. Sarah Palin, selected as John McCain’s running mate, emerged as a polarizing figure, igniting both passionate support and fierce opposition. Conservatives saw her as a fresh, authentic voice—an embodiment of small-town values, self-reliance, and an antidote to what they viewed as an elitist, out-of-touch Washington…-

Fifty years ago, a trip abroad was a rare, significant event that required careful planning and preparation.

Upon reaching their destinations, they would write long letters home, sharing the details of their adventures with friends and family,…

Arriving in Washington for the first time as the incoming president, I was struck by a memory from decades earlier. Chapter 10 of my journey played in my mind as I recalled standing at the gates of the White House as a young man, participating in a protest against apartheid and marveling at the sheer authority the building embodied. It had felt so distant then—a symbol of power, responsibility, and decisions made far removed from the world I inhabited. Back then, I could only dream of such a position,…

Chapter 18 – A Rock Ahead
Chapter 18 – A Rock Ahead focuses on the growing social gap between American husbands and their wives, particularly in how responsibility and daily concerns are divided. The narrator, while strolling near Twenty-third Street, sees a constant flow of women indulging in shopping, absorbed by displays and bargains. This pattern, he argues, illustrates a troubling disconnect—many women appear unaware of their household’s financial reality, treating shopping not as necessity but as recreation. Rather than…-

November 2, 2010—I knew we were headed for a bad night. I watched the returns come in from the Treaty Room, my usual election-night perch, Valerie and Axe and Gibbs with me. It was not the bloodbath that some had predicted—thank you, consistency!—but as the evening wore on, it was clear that we were losing the House of Representatives. By the time I went to bed, Republicans had picked up at least sixty-three seats, more than enough for a majority. To say I was discouraged would be an…
