What Kind of President Would John Kerry Be? / TIME Cover: February 9, 2004, Framed Art Print by TIME Magazine
$19.95(USD)
The most eagerly awaited event in the editorial cycle at TIME Magazine is always the selection of the cover. The best covers capture the zeitgeist of the week while surviving the judgment of history. As browsing this collection of TIME cover art prints shows, TIME is as good a record as any of who and what mattered over the past 80-plus years. And so when TIME captures a person, an event or a trend within its iconic red borders, the magazine is adding that extra dose of significance that no other publication can quite match. That is one reason why the original artwork for more than 800 TIME covers now resides in the National Portrait Gallery in Washington. Thanks to an amazing roster of artists, photographers and graphic designers, from TIME's earliest charcoal drawings of cover subjects to its later black-and-white photography to the more recent paintings and stunning color photography, TIME covers have always been, sometimes quite literally, works of great art. And, while the times may change, the TIME cover, with its iconic red border, has never lost its power to immediately send the signal that this person or event or idea is important to our lives, that in some way history is being made before our eyes.

-I-ve often said Terry-s energy could light up a city, and readers of this book will know why. Terry-s excitement for politics-and life-is evident on every page.-
-Senator Hillary Clinton
--- For more than twenty-five years, Terry McAuliffe has been at the epicenter of American politics.- Just out of Catholic University in Washington, Terry took a position with the Carter-Mondale campaign and quickly became one of the campaign-s chief fund-raisers-and hasn-t looked back since. The list of Terry-s former mentors, friends, and close associates in the nation-s capital reads like a who-s who of legendary Democrats: Tip O-Neill. Jimmy Carter. Dick Gephardt. Bill Clinton. Hillary Clinton. Al Gore. The list goes on and on. Terry has fought hard for the Democratic Party his entire life and, as Bill Clinton reveals here for the first time, he was the first one in the party to see opportunity in the Republican gains in the 1994 Congressional elections.
----- Without question the most successful fund-raiser in political history, Terry established himself as a heavyweight Democratic strategist and leader who was George W. Bush-s most vocal and persistent critic during the first four years of the Bush 43 presidency. He earned rave reviews even from former critics for his groundbreaking work as chairman of the Democratic National Committee from 2001 to 2005, pulling the DNC out of debt for the first time in its history.- Terry has served as a confidant and adviser to President Clinton and countless presidential candidates, a mediator among party leaders, the chairman of a national convention and presidential inaugural, and a forceful spokesman for the party-all without losing his reputation as a colorful, fun-loving character liked and respected even by his Republican adversaries.
----- What a Party! is a fascinating, hilarious, and provocative look at the life of one of Washington-s legendary figures. From wrestling an alligator to running the Democratic National Committee to his friendship with President Clinton, Terry McAuliffe-s wonderful memoir covers it all and is, without doubt, the political book of the year.
