This is a very good report to me about what has been happening to the top level political system in US today. Noticeably, many people out there still have the illusion that the US president plans and executes the national strategies with great power and a lot of free will. But they fail to see the US president is just a puppet for the powerful special interest group. They even forget that an US President (Clinton was one of the good recent examples) can be kicked back and forth like a ball by the powerhouse and may go through all kinds of humiliation in front of the national televisions and news media even impeachment for whatever crime names the powerhouse labels him. For those who follow the high school textbook and still think the US president is holding the real top power like Lincoln and Washington back in the old days should now wake up to the reality.
