- Summary
- Vice presidents owe their position to the president-- a connection that affects not only how they are perceived but also their possible future as a presidential candidate, which is tied, for better or worse, to the president they serve. Brower introduces us to the second-most-powerful men in the world, exploring the lives and roles of thirteen modern vice presidents-- eight Republicans and five Democrats. She pulls back the curtain to reveal the sometimes close, often chilly, and always complicated relationship between our modern presidents and their vice presidents
