  • A Conversation with Mark Salter, Author of “The
    A Conversation with Mark Salter, Author of “The Luckiest Man: Life with John McCain” Join Michael Zeldin in his conversation with Mark Salter, Author of The Luckiest Man: Life with John McCain. Salter collaborated with John McCain on all seven of their books, including The Restless Wave, Faith of My Fathers, Worth the Fighting For, Why Courage Matters, Character Is Destiny, Hard Call, and Thirteen Soldiers. He served on Senator McCain’s staff for eighteen years. Guest Mark Salter Author of “The Luckiest Man: Life with John McCain” Mark Salter is an American speechwriter from Davenport, Iowa, known for his collaborations with United States Senator John McCain on several nonfiction books as well as on political speeches. Salter also served as McCain’s chief of staff for a while, although he had left that position by 2008. About the Book More so than almost anyone outside of McCain’s immediate family, Mark Salter had unparalleled access to and served to influence the Senator’s thoughts and actions, cowriting seven books with him and acting as a valued confidant. Now, in The Luckiest Man, Salter draws on the storied facets of McCain’s early biography as well as the later-in-life political philosophy for which the nation knew and loved him, delivering an intimate and comprehensive account of McCain’s life and philosophy. Salter covers all the major events of McCain’s life—his peripatetic childhood, his naval service—but introduces, too, aspects of the man that the public rarely saw and hardly knew. Woven throughout this narrative is also the story of Salter and McCain’s close relationship, including how they met, and why their friendship stood the test of time in a political world known for its fickle personalities and frail bonds.

  • Profiles in Courage of Community College Leaders
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Mari Kruger for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education presented on June 14, 2007. Title: Profiles in Courage of Community College Leaders. Abstract approved: George H. Copa The purpose of this study is to explore the lived experience of courage among community college leaders across the United States. The following questions guided the research: (1) What is the courageous experience like for a community college leader? (2) What is the process of courage development? (3) What are the internal and external conditions which are most likely to lead a community college leader to act courageously? The research design included a qualitative/interpretive methodology and instrumental case study method with nine community college leaders’ selected using purposive sampling. Overall themes that emerged characterizing the experience of courage were: (a) real risks, (b) reasoned choice, (c) call to act, (d) facing adversity, (e) loneliness and isolation, (f) staying power, (g) maintaining personal integrity, and (h) preservation. Embedded in themes were sub-themes of the courageous experience. Prior, present, and future time horizons comprised the conceptual framework of the development process of becoming courageous for leaders. The prior time horizon focused on fundamentals included past practice, value formation, and consistency. During the present time horizon, leaders moved through three phases, each phase comprised of several elements of courage development. Elements within phases included fear, taking responsibility, risk, and reasoned choice (Phase One); action, focusing of attention, adversity, suffering loss (Phase Two); and, fortitude under stress, management of controversy, and survival amidst challenges (Phase Three). Outcomes of moving through the phases of the present time horizon were self integrity, institutional sustainability, and self release.

  • {PDF EPUB} Why Courage Matters the Way to a Braver Life by John Mccain Why Courage Matters
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Why Courage Matters The Way to a Braver Life by John McCain Why Courage Matters. Why Courage Matters: The Way to a Braver Life is a 2004 book by United States Senator John McCain with his frequent collaborator and aide Mark Salter. Published by Random House, it is mostly mini-biographies and mini-commentaries on others, but contains a small autobiographical element. Contents. See also References External links. The book followed McCain's two memoirs, Faith of My Fathers (1999) and Worth the Fighting For (2002). [1] McCain starts by saying that in contemporary usage people talk too loosely in characterizing acts as being courageous - it should be not only "the capacity for action despite our fears" but also involve a physical self-sacrifice for the benefit of others. [1] He says that during his time as a POW in North Vietnam during the Vietnam War, he relied on his fellow POWs for moral support but "I was not always a match for my enemies." [1] In press interviews for the book, McCain said that courage materializes when "our fear is overcome by our conscience and our beliefs and forces us to act." [2] Most of the book consists of his portraits of people, both leaders and ordinary people, he thinks have shown courage. [3] The book starts with the story of U.S. Special Forces soldier Roy Benavidez, who won the Medal of Honor for his actions during the Vietnam War. [4] Others whose stories are in the book include American civil rights leader John Lewis, American Indian chiefs Manuelito and Barboncito, explorer John Wesley Powell, Jewish resistance fighter Hannah Szenes, Burmese dissident Aung San Suu Kyi, Baltimore anti-drugs-crime mass murder victim Angela Dawson, and U.S.

  • {PDF EPUB} Thirteen Soldiers a Personal History of Americans at War by John Mccain Mccain's 'Soldiers:' 13 Ordinary People Transformed by Battle
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Thirteen Soldiers A Personal History of Americans at War by John McCain McCain's 'Soldiers:' 13 Ordinary People Transformed By Battle. Arizona Senator John McCain had a really good week. When we reached him after the election, he jokingly said he was living the dream, but as Republicans prepare to take control of the Senate, McCain was also cautious. SENATOR JOHN MCCAIN: There's a feeling out there that we're adrift and I would, in fairness, point out that there is not a great deal of approval of Republicans in Congress either, so we're going to have to see if we can find common ground with our Democrat friends on some issues without betraying any of our principles. WERTHEIMER: We didn't spend all our time talking about Republican victory - that's because Senator McCain has a new book out, written with Mark Salter. It's called "Thirteen Soldiers: A Personal History Of Americans At War." Thirteen soldiers, one from every war this country has fought, beginning with the revolution, down to the war in Iraq. Senator McCain explains. MCCAIN: We try to, kind of, give a cross-section of people who - the only thing that really bound them together was the fact that they served their country with heroism and sacrifice. WERTHEIMER: You picked a major historic figure to represent Americans at war and the Civil War - no less a person than Oliver Wendell Holmes, who went on to be a justice of the United States. But in your book - and you include a photograph of him - he's a skinny kid at Harvard who's obviously never thought of fighting a battle, he's never even been hunting, but he believed, as many people from his home state of Massachusetts did, that slavery should be abolished.

Michael Higginbotham" Often notedfor their heroicprowess as pilots in World War II, the Tuskegee Airmen served just as nobly fighting racial segregation within the Army. Considered exemplary in its integration today, the armedforces were a testing groundfor integrationin the middle of the twentieth century. Black officers and enlisted men, putting themselves in harm's way for a segregated United States, rebuked the notion of separate but equal, thereby slowly paving the way for integrationin the military, and eventually, the nation. In this Article, F. Michael Higgenbotham examines the history of segregation in the United States Armed Forces as well as the role and contribution of black soldiers, most notably the American Army Air Corpspersonnel, in the legal challenges andprotests that led the battle to desegregatethe armedforces.

    Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik; Terrorismus 1 Wirtschafts- und Finanzkrise 26 Klima- und Energiepolitik 35 Wahlkampf, Bios, Politik und Religion, Zukunft GOP 41 Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik; Terrorismus “America and the World: Conversations on the Future of American For- eign Policy” Zbigniew Brzezinski, Brent Scowcroft, David Ignatius Publisher: Perseus Publishing Pub. Date: September 2008 Hardcover 304pp Synopsis The two most respected figures in American foreign policy define the international challenges facing the next president in the must-read foreign policy book of the season. Given the bitterness of partisan debates about foreign policy, now exacerbated by a tight race for the presidency, one might expect Brzezinski and Scowcroft to disagree vehemently about the challenges America faces abroad, the deci- sions that have shaped the nation's current travails and what the next president should do. Instead, they seem to see eye to eye on nearly every major foreign policy issue facing the United States…And, contrary to the operative assumption behind Sunday morning TV talk shows, it turns out that two wise interlocutors who concur can be as interesting and informative as experts with completely divergent views…The next president would do well to heed their counsel but should not underestimate the diffi- culty of sticking to it. “Strongest Tribe: War, Politics, and the Endgame in Iraq” Bing West Publisher: Random House Adult Trade Publishing Group Pub. Date: August 2008 Hardcover 464pp Synopsis From a universally respected combat journalist, a gripping history based on five years of front-line reporting about how the war was turned around–and the choice now facing America.

Bush, and what Barack Obama has done with the extraordinarily expanded authority and controversial counter- terrorism policies he inherited two years ago now. Just this week, while you've been enjoying Lanai, President Obama made headlines back on the mainland with a major decision about detainees who are being held at Guantanamo, which is a defining issue that has been vexing his legal-policy team since he took office. Obama issued an executive order on Monday that essentially entrenched the basic outlines of the Guantanamo policies George W. Bush had launched, from prosecuting some detainees before military tribunals to holding others indefinitely without trial. What a stark contrast this week presents from a similar moment just over two years ago when, a few days after his inauguration, Obama issued his first executive orders about Guantanamo and terrorism detainees. That was a remarkable time. * Address delivered at the Annual Convention of the International Society of Barristers, Lanai, Hawaii, 11 March 2011.
