All the Presidents' Memories: How they Reconstruct the Past, Manage the Present and Shape the Future, Volume I by Henry J. Roth, Ph. D. Pdf

The memories described in this book reflect not only how eleven American Presidents remembered what happened to them in their youth, but also provide a glimpse into their beliefs, attitudes, thoughts and feelings. These childhood memories can foreshadow historical events during a President's administration even though such events are separated by time and place. By examining the early memories of the Presidents, it is possible to discover how, for example: Abraham Lincoln's amusing memory of a boyhood caper provided an unusual perspective on his character and his lasting appeal as a great storyteller; how Ulysses S. Grant's memory of a business transaction revealed a hidden vulnerability; and how Dwight David Eisenhower's memory of battling with a barnyard goose influenced his negotiating style as a General and President. These and other Presidential memories provide both telling and entertaining insights into the minds and actions of our American leaders.

All the Presidents' Memories by Henry Roth Pdf

All the Presidents' Memories, Volume II, provides a glimpse into the character of eight American Presidents who had served served as Generals in the United States military. As in Volume I, through personal memories from their youth, our understanding of each president deepens as we explore how the memories mirror underlying aspects of their personalities; and how those memories may have impacted both their administration and their military principles. By examining the early memories of the Presidents, it is possible to discover how, for example: Andrew Johnson's memory of his early life in poverty functioned as a catalyst for him to initiate bold actions to overcome it. One can see how the wish to gain respect from those who had looked down on him in the memory led to his brashness as the Military Governor of Tennessee with the rank of Brigadier General. Rutherford Hayes's memory of familial harmony, conflict and reconciliation, helped to shape his later identity and actions. They offer a preview of how he would later earn the admiration of his soldiers by treating them as if they were extended members of his own family. Benjamin Harrison's memory of the power of prayer called attention to something inside of him that was longing for inner peace, solitary reflection and spiritual guidance. As a General, Harrison applied the lessons of the memory in promoting a religious and prayerful atmosphere in the camps. Using precise details and enduring themes, these and other early presidential memories foreshadow and shape the future political and military mindsets of these Presidents.

All the Presidents' Memories by Henry J. Roth, Ph.d. Pdf

The memories described in this book reflect not only how eleven American Presidents remembered what happened to them in their youth, but also a kind of psychological shorthand of their beliefs, attitudes, cognitive biases and foibles. A negative memory may have provided guidance in situations the President viewed as dangerous, whereas a positive memory may have provided guidance in situations viewed as promising. By examining the early memories of the Presidents, it is possible to discover how, for example: Abraham Lincoln's amusing memory of a boyhood caper provided an unusual perspective on his character and his lasting appeal as a great storyteller;Ulysses S. Grant's memory of a business transaction revealed a hidden vulnerability; Teddy Roosevelt's memory of a fantastic childhood adventure foreshadowed his intellectual curiosity and love of nature; Dwight David Eisenhower's memory of battling with a barnyard goose influenced his negotiating style as a General and President; and Richard Nixon's harrowing memory of a childhood fall taught him to survive in a dangerous and hostile world and presaged the sense of being "kicked around" that would forever define his image. These and other Presidential memories provide both telling and entertaining insights into the minds and actions of our American leaders.

All the Presidents' Memories by Henry J Roth Ph D,Lorraine S. Roth, M.d.,Lorraine S Roth M D Pdf

All the Presidents' Memories, Volume I provides a glimpse into the character of eleven American Presidents through the words and images in their most compelling personal memories from their youth. Our understanding of each president deepens as we explore how their memories mirror underlying aspects of their personalities; and how those memories may have impacted their administration. This book investigates how a seemingly isolated moment in time can be transformed into an enduring set of themes whose meanings are embedded in symbolic language and graphic imagery. The selection of the eleven presidents in Volume I includes eight whom historians have typically ranked as the most influential and successful presidents: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, James K. Polk, Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson and Franklin D. Roosevelt. In addition, three other presidents were selected for this first volume who were not typically ranked at the top: Ulysses S. Grant, Dwight D. Eisenhower and Richard M. Nixon; but their earliest memories provided exceptionally dramatic examples of how such memories can vividly reflect and shape character, personality and values; and foreshadow actions they took during their administration. For that reason, I chose not to start the book in proper numerical order beginning with our first president; but to start with Grant, Eisenhower and Nixon.

The Bully Pulpit, Presidential Speeches, and the Shaping of Public Policy by Jeffrey S. Ashley,Marla J. Jarmer Pdf

Issue framing is the way that people, especially politicians, get other people to view a particular problem or issue. By framing the issue in a particular way, the goal is to get people to think about the issue, to believe that an action is required and, most importantly, to believe that a particular action (the one being proposed by the framer) is the right one. The use of language and imagery is an essential part of issue framing and has been an integral part of the presidency since our nation’s founding, but it has become particularly important since Theodore Roosevelt began to take his message directly to the people. This work examines a selected speech delivered by every president from Roosevelt through Barack Obama to show how language has been instrumental in directing policy. Each chapter will examine the situation or background for the problem, include a transcript of the speech the president delivered, and conclude with an analysis of the speech in terms of the particular frame that the speech utilized and the eventual outcome, or policy direction, inspired by the speech.
