"Presidents play Congress' game and win. "Presidential Pork" clearly demonstrates that presidents are as willing as Members of Congress to pilfer the pork barrel and claim credit for public projects. Hudak's book helps us reimagine the president as a strategic electoral player, intent on using public funds through the organization and authority of the executive office to gain an electoral foothold."--Brandon Rottinghaus, University of Houston
" "Presidential Pork" offers a fascinating look at past presidents and an intriguing look into the current president. It is not too early to start asking how history will judge this president. Is he the power hungry despot that Republicans are demonizing? Or is he the inept manager Democrats are quietly groaning about who can't even use the power of the presidency? Hudak's sequel to this story should be as interesting as this book."--Elaine C. Kamarck, Founding Director of the Center for Effective Public Management at the Brookings Institution. As a senior staffer in the White House she created the National Performance Review, the largest government reform effort in the last half of the twentieth century.
