The General's President

At last the generals were going to get their kind of President. At least that's what they thought . . .

The stock market crash of 1994 made 1929 look like a minor market adjustment . . . the rioters of the '90s made the Wobblies look like country-club Republicans . . . the Vice President of the U.S. resigns in a cloud of scandal—and when the military hints that they may let the lynch mobs through anyway, the President resigns as well.

But the President must first propose a new chief executive to succeed him—one approved by the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Thus the generals get to pick a President. Imagine their surprise when the President they pick turns out to be his own man . . .
