JFK: Say Goodbye To America
JFK: Say Goodbye To America
    American distrust of
    government, polititians
    and authority in general
    can be traced back to the
    time of the official
    investigation into the
    assassination of
    President John F. Kennedy
    and the suspicion
    generated by the
    publication of the Warren
    report, the government's
    official version of this
    infamous murder.In the
    last ten years there has
    been much research into
    the exact events
    surrounding Kennedy's
    murder and how it was so
    successfully covered up.
    JFK: Say Goodbye to
    America contextualises
    this debate, coming to a
    shocking conclusion.
    According to new
    information gathered and
    assessed by the author,
    JKF was murdered on
    orders emanating from the
    'alternative' government
    - the - Establishment -
    which eased the concerns
    of 'big business' and
    which Kennedy was in the
    process of divesting of
    power in favour of
    promoting a government
    which put the people and
    their needs first. The
    President's new
    priorities won him few
    friends in the government
    and Mtthew Smith suggests
    that it was no
    coincidence that most of
    his policies were
    dismantled in the 18
    months immediately
    following his death.
    Indeed, his policy to
    withdraw from the early
    situation in Vietnam was
    dramatically changed
    within hours. President
    Lyndon B. Johnson ordered
    an investigation into
    JFK's murder which soon
    emerged as biased,
    inaccurate and
    misleading, highlighting
    for many Americans the
    end of a golden era and a
    farewell to the country
    they knew.

Bill Clinton: An American Journey
Bill Clinton: An American
Journey
    Nigel Hamilton brings all
    the magisterial authority
    he brought to his
    Whitbread-winning
    biography of Monty, and
    all the talent for
    tracking down and
    verifying hidden,
    controversial material
    that he showed in JFK:
    Reckless Youth, which
    topped the American
    bestseller charts for
    months, in this new
    biography of Bill
    Clinton. Born into a
    'white trash' family in
    backwoods, racially
    segregated Arkansas, he
    suffered under an
    alcoholic, violent
    stepfather, on one
    occasion having to fight
    him physically in order
    to protect his mother. As
    a youth he would become
    inspired by the civil
    rights movement,
    particularly Martin
    Luther King, and as a
    student became a
    long-haired hippy
    musician, involved in
    radical politics and also
    discovering free love.
    Hamilton tells the story
    of how Clinton's sexual
    and political career
    developed hand in hand.
    This is a book about
    sexual politics on many
    levels, showing how
    Clinton's life was formed
    by changing attitudes.
    Here is a man who, far
    from being a sexual
    predator or exploiter of
    his position - like JFK -
    was swept to power
    because women adored him,
    whether Democratic party
    helpers, the women of
    the American electorate -
    or indeed Hilary Clinton,
    whose powerfully
    manipulative personality
    is shown to have been
    vital to his success, .
    Clinton has been
    polygamous throughout his
    adult life, and
    Hamilton's fascinating
    portrait of a marriage
    examines Hilary's
    relationship with his
    quite astonishing number
    of girlfriends. The book
    also covers his time at
    Oxford as a Rhodes
    scholar, his political
    apprenticeship and his
    rise to power,
    culminating in his
    election as President in
    '92.
