  • In the Shadow of the Presidency: Presidential Management and the Influence of Cabinet Secretaries
    In the Shadow of the Presidency: Presidential Management and the Influence of Cabinet Secretaries by John C. Koehler A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama May 7, 2016 Approved by Gerard S. Gryski, Chair, Curtis O. Liles Professor Emeritus of Political Science Cynthia Bowling, Professor of Political Science Linda Dennard, Professor of Political Science William Franko, Assistant Professor of Political Science Abstract Scholars today recognize weaknesses in the president’s ability to pass significant legislation. I ask how presidents can increase their overall influence. They must look internally at their management style and the organization of the Executive Branch. They must also improve their relationship with other political actors, namely Congress and interest groups. Several studies have looked at presidential organization focusing on White House staff and other parts of the Executive Office of the President, such as the Office of Management and Budgeting. I suggest that cabinet secretaries are an overlooked presidential resource. How helpful a resource are cabinet secretaries and how can they be utilized? It depends upon a president’s management style – their level of involvement and the level of clarity with which they give direction. This study provides a typology of four different managerial approaches of modern presidents and analyzes four cases to highlight the importance of cooperation and coordination with Executive Department heads in policy-making. I conclude that secretaries can help the president influence Congress and interest groups. The working relationship that the president has with their cabinet members affects how an administration makes decisions, which proposals it supports, as well as the legislative success of those proposals.

  • JAMES A. BAKER, III the Case for Pragmatic Idealism Is Based on an Optimis- Tic View of Man, Tempered by Our Knowledge of Human Imperfection
    Extract from Raising the Bar: The Crucial Role of the Lawyer in Society, by Talmage Boston. © State Bar of Texas 2012. Available to order at texasbarbooks.net. TWO MOST IMPORTANT LAWYERS OF THE LAST FIFTY YEARS 67 concluded his Watergate memoirs, The Right and the Power, with these words that summarize his ultimate triumph in “raising the bar”: From Watergate we learned what generations before us have known: our Constitution works. And during the Watergate years it was interpreted again so as to reaffirm that no one—absolutely no one—is above the law.29 JAMES A. BAKER, III The case for pragmatic idealism is based on an optimis- tic view of man, tempered by our knowledge of human imperfection. It promises no easy answers or quick fixes. But I am convinced that it offers our surest guide and best hope for navigating our great country safely through this precarious period of opportunity and risk in world affairs.30 In their historic careers, Leon Jaworski and James A. Baker, III, ended up in the same place—the highest level of achievement in their respective fields as lawyers—though they didn’t start from the same place. Leonidas Jaworski entered the world in 1905 as the son of Joseph Jaworski, a German-speaking Polish immigrant, who went through Ellis Island two years before Leon’s birth and made a modest living as an evangelical pastor leading small churches in Central Texas towns. James A. Baker, III, entered the world in 1930 as the son, grand- son, and great-grandson of distinguished lawyers all named James A.

  • The Southern Baptist Church and Billy Graham
    The Southern Baptist Church and Billy Graham Fatuity flusters in the Southern Baptists, the largest Protestant denomination in America. I used to have great admiration for them until I figured their grave, treasonous concessions that they’ve done for years. The Southern Baptist Church has extra-church institutions and denominational structures yoking congregations today. The biblical church actually had totally autonomous congregations in no complexities. Denominational structures are just man-made with no biblical authority on anyone. Their church is also ecumenical. It was only until 2004 when the SBC (Southern Baptist Church) ended ties with the World Baptist Alliance (which was almost as extreme as the NCC and the WCC). The SBC does align with the China Church Council. Council K. H. Ting (“Honorable” President) is a member and he believes in denying the infallibility of the Bible, he denied the judgment of sinful people, he loves liberation theology, and believes that the truth is found in all religions. What a lie since Christ perfectly said out of his mouth that I am the way, truth, and the life and no man comes to the Father, but by me. 33rd Degree Freemason Brook Hays (who was a famous figure in the political history of the state of Arkansas) was the President of the Southern Baptist Convention in 1957. Billy Graham was an ally of Hays. Hays once believe in a moderate poison in terms of solving civil rights issues. He was a Phi Beta Kappa. Brook Hays was in the bar (of law) in 1922. He practiced first at Russellville, and then at Little Rock, Arkansas.
