Edward Luce in the Financial Times reflects on Obama’s miserable August
Who would ever be a leading politician? It must be a hell of a job.
Edward Luce has a fascinating and, well, touching, commentary in yesterday’s (21st) Financial Times.
Whatever one’s political leanings it’s difficult not to get a feeling for the toughness of the job of leading the Nation.
The quote? Attributed to Mario Cuomo, the former Governor of New York. And Edward Luce is the Washington Bureau chief of the Financial Times. A graduate of Oxford University (politics, philosophy and economics) he is no stranger to the world of politics as his father was the British conservative politician Richard Luce, a noble Lord no less.
