美国“总统俱乐部”里那些事;美国“总统俱乐部”里那些事, 时间:2012-04.
2009年1月,卡特、克林顿、老布什与小布什,应奥巴马之邀,造访白宫。
“总统俱乐部”不是一处秘密聚会的场所,也并非严格法律意义上的团体;它折射出更多,是历任美国领导人的传承,代表了一种“向长者请教”的传统。
胡佛提议:“我们应该组建一个总统俱乐部。”杜鲁门一口答应:“你做主席,我当秘书。”
如果说,美国历史上的些许小事,显著地改变了这个国家的发展轨迹,1953年1月20日的某个时刻,应该算是其中之一。
美国《 时代》周刊最近的封面文章,称,这个日子,值得纪念,艾森豪威尔举行了就职典礼;两位前总统一次简短谈话。
那天,就在新总统登上主席台,接受欢呼时,两位被冷落的前任Presidentes——哈里·杜鲁门与赫伯特·胡佛,在后台,相遇了。一番寒暄后,胡佛提议:“我们应该组建一个总统俱乐部。”
“很好啊,”杜鲁门干脆地回答,“你做主席,我当秘书。”
两人的设想,在当时,颇为前卫——受“不在其位,不谋其政”的惯例限制,卸任的美国总统不方便直接插手美国政务,他们偶尔碰头,聊的,多是家庭琐事,或,聊自己的英雄事迹。在这方面,杜鲁门属于勇于创新,他在任期内,充分地向胡佛取经,汲取后者在人道主义救援上的丰富经验,向二战后的欧洲,输送了大批粮食,让废墟中的亿万民众,免于饥馑。
历史学家认为,如果没有胡佛这位长者相助,杜鲁门很难独自收拾战后的残局。
胡佛向杜鲁门提及:建立“总统俱乐部”,也许,只是一时兴起,后续影响力,让他们始料未及。杜鲁门之后,历任美国总统开始越来越多地和前辈们沟通,向他们咨询或告知重大决策。
人们看到:在肯尼迪宣布封锁古巴的那天早上,他打电话给艾森豪威尔,通报了这一决定;
克林顿在任时,经常抽出时间,与尼克松研讨俄罗斯和中国问题;
在本·拉登被击毙的那个夜晚,小布什和克林顿,第一时间,从奥巴马那里,收到了这条好消息。
路过华盛顿杰克逊广场716号时,请务必留心,那里,就是“总统俱乐部”的登记地址
华盛顿引人入胜的去处,非常多,从白宫,到国会大厦,从林肯纪念堂,到国会图书馆,花上几天,都转不完。
对杰克逊广场716号,一幢不起眼的4层白色建筑。
那里,就是“总统俱乐部”的登记地址。
房子入口处,铺陈着雅致的蓝色地毯,上面刻有总统的徽章。进入大门,客厅的墙上,镶有从一个半世纪前,杂志上剪下的文章、华盛顿历史地图,以及最近4位总统,与现任总统的肖像。
客厅后面,是一间带书桌和壁炉的办公室,里面,装有多部电话,看不到电脑,书架上,收藏的是:自胡佛以来的总统文件合集。第二层,有两间餐厅:其中,一间装饰豪华,摆满齐本德尔(18世纪英国家具设计师)式椅子,用做正餐;另一间,相对随意,便于来宾在此,享用早餐。第三层,就是总统卧室了,一间,刻有总统徽章的双人床,覆盖着洁净的白色棉布床罩。这间卧室,视野极好,透过窗子,可将拉法叶公园,尽收眼底。第四层,是卧室,各层,由电梯连接。
上世纪50年代末,美国政府买下了这幢建筑。它被用于招待卸任总统,是尼克松主政期间开始的——前任林登·约翰逊知道太多秘密,这儿环境幽静,约翰逊休养舒服了,或许就不会去外面捅篓子。可惜,约翰逊一次也没领过情,尼克松懒得修缮这栋宅邸。
尼克松的继承者-福特,是杰克逊广场716号迎来的头一位贵客,彼时,它不实至名归:整幢建筑,就几间卧室、一间客厅,墙壁上,贴了些画,装修与陈设,都很简朴。这让住惯五星级酒店的前总统及其家人,适应不了
克林顿曾邀请老布什全家,来此消闲,遗憾的是,前第一夫人芭芭拉兴味索然,估计,有住宿条件不佳的因素。
也许是听够了母亲的埋怨,小布什上任后,自掏腰包,对俱乐部驻地,进行了全面修缮。屋子从内到外,都认真收拾了一番,成了现在这番模样,看上去,总算有豪华别墅的派头了。
“总统俱乐部”的历史,就是一部美国历任总统关系的编年史
其实,“秘密度假场所”不能概括“总统俱乐部”的内涵,在过去50年里,围绕这个团体,发生了太多故事,它的历史,就是一部美国历任总统关系的编年史。
1960年前后,民主党候选人肯尼迪,总喜欢在口袋里,放一张纸。那上头,没别的内容,只有一行数字:118574。这个数字,是他入主白宫需要赢得的票数。
当年的大选中,肯尼迪艰难地得到了超过这个数字的选票。对阵双方的得票率,十分接近,肯尼迪为49.7%,对手尼克松为49.5%。然而,大选刚结束,就爆出了民主党涉嫌舞弊的传闻:在共和党的传统地盘-伊利诺伊州和得克萨斯州,肯尼迪的得票,居然大大超出两州民主党登记选民总数。共和党大佬觉得机不可失,纷纷劝说尼克松,重新计票。
万一尼克松要求重新计票,肯尼迪很可能难圆总统梦。后者,坐立不安,很想和对手会上一面,探个虚实。他转念一想,觉得:如果直接去找尼克松,对方很可能根本不搭理自己。
大选结束后,肯尼迪与尼克松正好都在佛罗里达州休假。肯尼迪的父亲-约瑟夫·肯尼迪闻讯灵机一动,拨通了前总统胡佛的电话。胡佛与尼克松是老相识,遂亲自向后者建言:“这个世界的麻烦够多了,有时候,维护统一,不但最可取,并且,至关重要。”言外之意是,尼克松应以大局为重,尽快与肯尼迪会面。尼克松有所顾忌,认为:肯尼迪此举只是“一场廉价的政治秀”,胡佛反驳说,从肯尼迪的角度来看,这样做,显得有雅量。
尼克松仍不放心,认为:应征求现任总统艾森豪威尔的意见。结果,艾克(艾森豪威尔的昵称)的意见,与胡佛一致:“如果你不去,反倒显得落魄。”两人正说着,又一个电话打进来,这次是肯尼迪本人。两位政坛新星就顺水推舟地会了面。后来的事情,尽人皆知:尼克松大度地放弃了重新计票,成全了肯尼迪的总统梦,自己度过了8年,才入主白宫。
克林顿从里根那里,学到了挥手致意的秘诀,令自己终身受益
美国政治评论家南希·吉布斯和迈克尔·达菲认为,无论怎么看,“总统俱乐部”都不是严格法律意义上的团体,更多的,是代表一种“向长者请教”的传统。
的确,从杜鲁门开始,几乎每位卸任总统,都会向他们的继任者,传授几招锦囊妙计:艾森豪威尔教肯尼迪:怎样乘直升机-快速逃生;约翰逊教尼克松:把秘密资料藏在哪儿最保险;福特教卡特:怎样接见民众;尼克松告诉里根:哪些内阁成员该走,哪些该留……
这些妙计,多是美国前总统们多年来,从政经验的结晶,一般,都很复杂、非常人所能把握。惟一的例外是,有一位总统,曾得到过非常简洁、却令他终生受用的建议:如何挥手致意,最酷。
这个故事的主角,就是克林顿。他上任时,尚有5位前辈在世——尼克松、福特、卡特、里根及老布什。这是自1861年林肯就任以来,美国历史上,规模最大的“总统俱乐部”,如果他们都住进杰克逊广场716号,恐怕得有人睡地板。
1992年11月,克林顿赢得大选后,不久,率车队,浩浩荡荡地来到里根位于洛杉矶的住所。这本来是一次礼节性拜访,克林顿起初,并未想从里根那里学到什么。孰料,在谈话后半段,这位鹰派老将,抛出了一个让客人始料未及的话题。
里根注意到,克林顿在竞选时,“军姿化”的挥手姿势,看上去不错,但,有些欠火候。在他看来,如果克林顿一定要用那种致意方式的话,就要表现得更坚决、更有威势。作为带领美国赢得冷战的人,里根比任何政治家都相信,总统要使自己能够取信于人,首先,得让大家觉得:他确实有威信。在公众前现身时,每次得体的挥手,都能有效增强这种威信。
那么,怎样挥手最合适呢?“手起时,要慢,就像手上覆有蜂蜜一样;落下时,要快而坚决,好像粘了某个讨厌的东西,要急于摆脱……”,说到尽兴处,两人都站起身来,里根不厌其烦地帮克林顿练习。
这次谈话,持续了70分钟,临别时,里根送给克林顿一罐软糖。糖很快就被吃光了,那只罐子,和克林顿充满魅力的挥手一起,在白宫,度过了他的两届任期。

Those things in the United States, “President Club”; those things in the United States, “President Club”, time :2012-04.
In January 2009, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George HW Bush and George W. Bush, Obama was invited to visit the White House.
“President Club” is not a secret meeting place, is not the strict legal sense of the group; it reflects more the heritage of former U.S. leaders represent a “consult” to the elderly tradition.
Hoover proposed: “We should set up a President’s Club.” Truman a promise: “You do the President, my secretary.”
If American history a little small, significantly changed the country’s development path, a point on January 20, 1953, one of which should be considered.
U.S. “Time” magazine’s recent cover story, said to this day memorable, Eisenhower held the inauguration; two former presidents for a brief conversation.
Day, the new president mounted the podium, accepted the cheers, the two left out of the former Presidentes – Harry Truman and Herbert Hoover, in the background, met. After some pleasantries, Hoover proposed: “We should set up a President’s Club.”
“Ah well,” Truman simply replied, “you do you, Madam President, I am a secretary.”
The idea of the two, at the time, quite avant-garde – The “not, do not seek the limit of its political practice, the outgoing President of the United States is not convenient direct intervention in the United States government affairs, they occasionally meet, chat, and more household chores , or talk to their own heroic deeds. Are to be creative in this regard, Truman, during his tenure, fully learn to Hoover, learn from the latter extensive experience in humanitarian relief to Europe after World War II, supplied a large number of food in the ruins of hundreds of millions of people , freedom from hunger.
Historians have argued that, if not the elderly help solve the problem of the Hoover, Truman is difficult to clean up the mess after the war alone.
Hoover, Truman mentioned: to establish the “President of the club, maybe, just on a whim, and the subsequent influence, so that they did not expect. Truman after the former President of the United States more and more and the predecessors to them to consult or inform major policy decisions.
People to see: Kennedy announced the blockade of Cuba that morning, he phoned Eisenhower informed of this decision;
During the Clinton years, often taking the time to discuss Russia and China with Nixon;
Osama bin Laden was killed that night, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton, the first time, from Obama there, received the Good News.
Passing through Jackson Square in Washington 716, please be sure to pay attention, there is the registered address of the President’s Club
Washington fascinating place, very much, from the White House to the Capitol from the Lincoln Memorial, the Library of Congress, to spend a few days, have switched to the finish.
Jackson Square, No. 716, a humble four-story white building.
Where is the “President Club” registered address.
At the entrance of the house, lay out an elegant blue carpet, inscribed with the President’s badge. Enter the gate, the living room wall, set with a cut from a half century ago, the magazine article, Washington, historical maps, and the last four presidents, and the current president’s portrait.
Behind the living room, is an office with desk and fireplace, which, equipped with phone, do not see the computer on the shelf, the collection: documents from President since Hoover Collection. The second layer, there are two restaurants: one, a luxuriously decorated, filled with Chippendale (18th century), chair of the British furniture designer, used dinner; another, relatively free, easy to guests at this Breakfast . The third layer is the President of the bedroom, one engraved with the presidential badge double bed, covered with clean white cotton bedspread. This bedroom, excellent vision, through the window of Lafayette Park, a panoramic view. The fourth floor is a bedroom on each floor, connected by the elevator.
The late 1950s, the U.S. government bought this building. It is used to entertain the outgoing President Nixon in power during the beginning – the former Lyndon Johnson knew too many secrets here quiet environment, Johnson rest comfortably, and perhaps would not go out to poke baskets. Unfortunately, Johnson once did not receive love, Nixon too lazy to repair this building mansions.
Nixon’s successor – Ford, Jackson Square No. 716, the head usher in an honored guest, that time, it is not true to its name: the whole building, a few bedrooms, a living room wall, put up some paintings , decoration and furnishings are very simple. This allows the former president and his family used to live in the five-star hotels, can not adapt
Clinton has invited the family of George HW Bush, to this leisure Unfortunately, the former first lady Barbara dull, it is estimated that there are factors of poor accommodation.
Perhaps heard enough complaints of the mother, after George W. Bush took office, out-of-pocket club resident, a comprehensive renovation. House from inside to outside, seriously to pack a lot into such words look like, it seems, finally came up with the trappings of luxury villas.
“President Club” history, is a United States served as the annals of presidential relations
In fact, the “secret retreat can not be summed up the connotation of” President Club “in the past 50 years, around this group, too much story, its history, is a United States served as the annals of presidential relations.
1960, Democratic candidate John F. Kennedy and always like to put a piece of paper in his pocket. That on top, no other content, only a single line number: 118 574. This figure is the number of votes needed to win him the White House.
Year’s general election, Kennedy struggled to get the votes over this figure. Against both sides of the vote, very close to John F. Kennedy was 49.7%, 49.5% in rival Nixon. However, the election just ended, it broke the Democratic Party, rumors of the alleged fraud: the traditional site of the Republican Party – the state of Illinois and Texas, Kennedy’s vote, but still far beyond the two states, the Democratic Party the total number of registered voters. Republican chiefs feel now or have to persuade Nixon, a recount.
In case of Nixon asks for a recount, Kennedy is likely difficult round of the presidential dream. The latter, restless, wanted to, and opponents at the meeting side of the probe of an actual situation. Then he remembered, and think: If you go directly to Nixon, the other party may not pay any attention to their own.
After the elections, Kennedy and Nixon just vacation in Florida. Kennedy’s father – Joseph Kennedy had an idea after hearing the news, called the telephone of former President Hoover. Hoover and Nixon, the old acquaintance was personally suggested to the latter: “the world’s trouble is enough, sometimes, safeguarding unity, not only the most desirable, and crucial.” The implication is that Nixon should consider the greater good as soon as possible to meet with Kennedy. Nixon scruples that: Kennedy move just a cheap political show, Hoover retorted, from Kennedy’s perspective, to do so, it is generous.
Nixon was still worried that: it shall seek the views of the incumbent President Eisenhower. A result, the views of Ike (Eisenhower’s nickname), and Hoover: “If you do not, and have actually seems to come down.” The two were talking, a call comes in, this is Kennedy himself. Two yielded to political star will face. Later, things, well known: Nixon’s generous enough to give up the recount, and fulfill President Kennedy’s dream, he spent eight years before the White House.
Clinton, Reagan there, learned waved the secret to a lifetime
No matter how, “President Club” are not groups in the strict legal sense, represents a kind of “advice to the elderly” tradition American political commentator Nancy Gibbs and Michael Duffy .
Indeed, from the Truman, almost every outgoing president will be to their successors, passing on the recipe for good ideas: Eisenhower taught Kennedy: how to take a helicopter – the quick escape; Johnson taught Nixon: possession of secret information Where most insurance; Ford taught Carter: How to interview people; Nixon told Reagan: What are cabinet members to go and what should stay …
These good ideas, many former U.S. presidents over the years, the crystallization of political experience, in general, are complex, the very people who can grasp. The only exception is that a President had been very simple, made his life-long benefit from the proposal: how waved the coolest.
The protagonist of this story is Bill Clinton. When he took office, there are five predecessors alive – Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan and George HW Bush. This is since Lincoln took office in 1861, the history of the United States, the largest “President Club”, if they are admitted to the Jackson Square No. 716, I’m afraid to sleep on the floor.
In November 1992, Clinton won the election, and soon, the rate of fleet, the mighty came to Reagan’s home in Los Angeles. It would have been a courtesy visit, Clinton at first did not want to learn anything from Reagan there. Guessed that half of the conversation, the hawks veteran, threw out a guest unexpected topic.
Reagan noted that Clinton during the campaign, of “Junzi” waving posture, looks good, but some less heat. In his view, if Clinton must use the kind of pay tribute to the way the words, it is necessary to show more resolute, more power and influence. Lead the United States won the Cold War, Reagan than any politician believe the President to make that they can convince people, first of all have to let everyone think: he is indeed prestigious. Appeared in public before, every decent wave, can effectively enhance that authority.
So, how to wave the most appropriate? Hand from time to time, slowly, as though covered with honey; fall, quickly and resolutely, as if glued a nuisance, eager to get rid of … “Speaking of fun at both stations up, Reagan taken the trouble to help the Clinton practice.
The conversation lasted 70 minutes, parting, Reagan gave Clinton a jar of candy. Sugar to be eaten soon, bird jar and Clinton charming waved together, spent his two terms in the White House.

美國“總統俱樂部”裡那些事;美國“總統俱樂部”裡那些事, 時間:2012-04.
2009年1月,卡特、克林頓、老布什與小布什,應奧巴馬之邀,造訪白宮。
“總統俱樂部”不是一處秘密聚會的場所,也並非嚴格法律意義上的團體;它折射出更多,是歷任美國領導人的傳承,代表了一種“向長者請教”的傳統。
胡佛提議:“我們應該組建一個總統俱樂部。”杜魯門一口答應:“你做主席,我當秘書。”
如果說,美國歷史上的些許小事,顯著地改變了這個國家的發展軌跡,1953年1月20日的某個時刻,應該算是其中之一。
美國《 時代》周刊最近的封面文章,稱,這個日子,值得紀念,艾森豪威爾舉行了就職典禮;兩位前總統一次簡短談話。
那天,就在新總統登上主席台,接受歡呼時,兩位被冷落的前任Presidentes——哈里·杜魯門與赫伯特·胡佛,在後台,相遇了。一番寒暄後,胡佛提議:“我們應該組建一個總統俱樂部。”
“很好啊,”杜魯門乾脆地回答,“你做主席,我當秘書。”
兩人的設想,在當時,頗為前衛——受“不在其位,不謀其政”的慣例限制,卸任的美國總統不方便直接插手美國政務,他們偶爾碰頭,聊的,多是家庭瑣事,或,聊自己的英雄事蹟。在這方面,杜魯門屬於勇於創新,他在任期內,充分地向胡佛取經,汲取後者在人道主義救援上的豐富經驗,向二戰後的歐洲,輸送了大批糧食,讓廢墟中的億萬民眾,免於饑饉。
歷史學家認為,如果沒有胡佛這位長者相助,杜魯門很難獨自收拾戰後的殘局。
胡佛向杜魯門提及:建立“總統俱樂部”,也許,只是一時興起,後續影響力,讓他們始料未及。杜魯門之後,歷任美國總統開始越來越多地和前輩們溝通,向他們諮詢或告知重大決策。
人們看到:在肯尼迪宣布封鎖古巴的那天早上,他打電話給艾森豪威爾,通報了這一決定;
克林頓在任時,經常抽出時間,與尼克松研討俄羅斯和中國問題;
在本·拉登被擊斃的那個夜晚,小布什和克林頓,第一時間,從奧巴馬那裡,收到了這條好消息。
路過華盛頓傑克遜廣場716號時,請務必留心,那裡,就是“總統俱樂部”的登記地址
華盛頓引人入勝的去處,非常多,從白宮,到國會大廈,從林肯紀念堂,到國會圖書館,花上幾天,都轉不完。
對傑克遜廣場716號,一幢不起眼的4層白色建築。
那裡,就是“總統俱樂部”的登記地址。
房子入口處,鋪陳著雅緻的藍色地毯,上面刻有總統的徽章。進入大門,客廳的牆上,鑲有從一個半世紀前,雜誌上剪下的文章、華盛頓歷史地圖,以及最近4位總統,與現任總統的肖像。
客廳後面,是一間帶書桌和壁爐的辦公室,裡面,裝有多部電話,看不到電腦,書架上,收藏的是:自胡佛以來的總統文件合集。第二層,有兩間餐廳:其中,一間裝飾豪華,擺滿齊本德爾(18世紀英國家具設計師)式椅子,用做正餐;另一間,相對隨意,便於來賓在此,享用早餐。第三層,就是總統臥室了,一間,刻有總統徽章的雙人床,覆蓋著潔淨的白色棉布床罩。這間臥室,視野極好,透過窗子,可將拉法葉公園,盡收眼底。第四層,是臥室,各層,由電梯連接。
上世紀50年代末,美國政府買下了這幢建築。它被用於招待卸任總統,是尼克松主政期間開始的——前任林登·約翰遜知道太多秘密,這兒環境幽靜,約翰遜休養舒服了,或許就不會去外面捅簍子。可惜,約翰遜一次也沒領過情,尼克松懶得修繕這棟宅邸。
尼克鬆的繼承者-福特,是傑克遜廣場716號迎來的頭一位貴客,彼時,它不實至名歸:整幢建築,就幾間臥室、一間客廳,牆壁上,貼了些畫,裝修與陳設,都很簡樸。這讓住慣五星級酒店的前總統及其家人,適應不了
克林頓曾邀請老布什全家,來此消閒,遺憾的是,前第一夫人芭芭拉興味索然,估計,有住宿條件不佳的因素。
也許是聽夠了母親的埋怨,小布什上任後,自掏腰包,對俱樂部駐地,進行了全面修繕。屋子從內到外,都認真收拾了一番,成了現在這番模樣,看上去,總算有豪華別墅的派頭了。
“總統俱樂部”的歷史,就是一部美國歷任總統關係的編年史
其實,“秘密度假場所”不能概括“總統俱樂部”的內涵,在過去50年裡,圍繞這個團體,發生了太多故事,它的歷史,就是一部美國歷任總統關係的編年史。
1960年前後,民主黨候選人肯尼迪,總喜歡在口袋裡,放一張紙。那上頭,沒別的內容,只有一行數字:118574。這個數字,是他入主白宮需要贏得的票數。
當年的大選中,肯尼迪艱難地得到了超過這個數字的選票。對陣雙方的得票率,十分接近,肯尼迪為49.7%,對手尼克松為49.5%。然而,大選剛結束,就爆出了民主黨涉嫌舞弊的傳聞:在共和黨的傳統地盤-伊利諾伊州和得克薩斯州,肯尼迪的得票,居然大大超出兩州民主黨登記選民總數。共和黨大佬覺得機不可失,紛紛勸說尼克松,重新計票。
萬一尼克松要求重新計票,肯尼迪很可能難圓總統夢。後者,坐立不安,很想和對手會上一面,探個虛實。他轉念一想,覺得:如果直接去找尼克松,對方很可能根本不搭理自己。
大選結束後,肯尼迪與尼克松正好都在佛羅里達州休假。肯尼迪的父親-約瑟夫·肯尼迪聞訊靈機一動,撥通了前總統胡佛的電話。胡佛與尼克松是老相識,遂親自向後者建言:“這個世界的麻煩夠多了,有時候,維護統一,不但最可取,並且,至關重要。”言外之意是,尼克松應以大局為重,盡快與肯尼迪會面。尼克鬆有所顧忌,認為:肯尼迪此舉只是“一場廉價的政治秀”,胡佛反駁說,從肯尼迪的角度來看,這樣做,顯得有雅量。
尼克松仍不放心,認為:應徵求現任總統艾森豪威爾的意見。結果,艾克(艾森豪威爾的暱稱)的意見,與胡佛一致:“如果你不去,反倒顯得落魄。”兩人正說著,又一個電話打進來,這次是肯尼迪本人。兩位政壇新星就順水推舟地會了面。後來的事情,盡人皆知:尼克松大度地放棄了重新計票,成全了肯尼迪的總統夢,自己度過了8年,才入主白宮。
克林頓從裡根那裡,學到了揮手致意的秘訣,令自己終身受益
美國政治評論家南希·吉布斯和邁克爾·達菲認為,無論怎麼看,“總統俱樂部”都不是嚴格法律意義上的團體,更多的,是代表一種“向長者請教”的傳統。
的確,從杜魯門開始,幾乎每位卸任總統,都會向他們的繼任者,傳授幾招錦囊妙計:艾森豪威爾教肯尼迪:怎樣乘直升機-快速逃生;約翰遜教尼克松:把秘密資料藏在哪兒最保險;福特教卡特:怎樣接見民眾;尼克松告訴裡根:哪些內閣成員該走,哪些該留……
這些妙計,多是美國前總統們多年來,從政經驗的結晶,一般,都很複雜、非常人所能把握。惟一的例外是,有一位總統,曾得到過非常簡潔、卻令他終生受用的建議:如何揮手致意,最酷。
這個故事的主角,就是克林頓。他上任時,尚有5位前輩在世——尼克松、福特、卡特、裡根及老布什。這是自1861年林肯就任以來,美國歷史上,規模最大的“總統俱樂部”,如果他們都住進傑克遜廣場716號,恐怕得有人睡地板。
1992年11月,克林頓贏得大選後,不久,率車隊,浩浩蕩盪地來到裡根位於洛杉磯的住所。這本來是一次禮節性拜訪,克林頓起初,並未想從裡根那裡學到什麼。孰料,在談話後半段,這位鷹派老將,拋出了一個讓客人始料未及的話題。
裡根注意到,克林頓在競選時,“軍姿化”的揮手姿勢,看上去不錯,但,有些欠火候。在他看來,如果克林頓一定要用那種致意方式的話,就要表現得更堅決、更有威勢。作為帶領美國贏得冷戰的人,裡根比任何政治家都相信,總統要使自己能夠取信於人,首先,得讓大家覺得:他確實有威信。在公眾前現身時,每次得體的揮手,都能有效增強這種威信。
那麼,怎樣揮手最合適呢? “手起時,要慢,就像手上覆有蜂蜜一樣;落下時,要快而堅決,好像粘了某個討厭的東西,要急於擺脫……”,說到盡興處,兩人都站起身來,裡根不厭其煩地幫克林頓練習。
這次談話,持續了70分鐘,臨別時,裡根送給克林頓一罐軟糖。糖很快就被吃光了,那隻罐子,和克林頓充滿魅力的揮手一起,在白宮,度過了他的兩屆任期。

美国“总统俱乐部”里那些事;美国“总统俱乐部”里那些事, 时间:2012-04.
2009年1月,卡特、克林顿、老布什与小布什,应奥巴马之邀,造访白宫。
“总统俱乐部”不是一处秘密聚会的场所,也并非严格法律意义上的团体;它折射出更多,是历任美国领导人的传承,代表了一种“向长者请教”的传统。
胡佛提议:“我们应该组建一个总统俱乐部。”杜鲁门一口答应:“你做主席,我当秘书。”
如果说,美国历史上的些许小事,显著地改变了这个国家的发展轨迹,1953年1月20日的某个时刻,应该算是其中之一。
美国《 时代》周刊最近的封面文章,称,这个日子,值得纪念,艾森豪威尔举行了就职典礼;两位前总统一次简短谈话。
那天,就在新总统登上主席台,接受欢呼时,两位被冷落的前任Presidentes——哈里·杜鲁门与赫伯特·胡佛,在后台,相遇了。一番寒暄后,胡佛提议:“我们应该组建一个总统俱乐部。”
“很好啊,”杜鲁门干脆地回答,“你做主席,我当秘书。”
两人的设想,在当时,颇为前卫——受“不在其位,不谋其政”的惯例限制,卸任的美国总统不方便直接插手美国政务,他们偶尔碰头,聊的,多是家庭琐事,或,聊自己的英雄事迹。在这方面,杜鲁门属于勇于创新,他在任期内,充分地向胡佛取经,汲取后者在人道主义救援上的丰富经验,向二战后的欧洲,输送了大批粮食,让废墟中的亿万民众,免于饥馑。
历史学家认为,如果没有胡佛这位长者相助,杜鲁门很难独自收拾战后的残局。
胡佛向杜鲁门提及:建立“总统俱乐部”,也许,只是一时兴起,后续影响力,让他们始料未及。杜鲁门之后,历任美国总统开始越来越多地和前辈们沟通,向他们咨询或告知重大决策。
人们看到:在肯尼迪宣布封锁古巴的那天早上,他打电话给艾森豪威尔,通报了这一决定;
克林顿在任时,经常抽出时间,与尼克松研讨俄罗斯和中国问题;
在本·拉登被击毙的那个夜晚,小布什和克林顿,第一时间,从奥巴马那里,收到了这条好消息。
路过华盛顿杰克逊广场716号时,请务必留心,那里,就是“总统俱乐部”的登记地址
华盛顿引人入胜的去处,非常多,从白宫,到国会大厦,从林肯纪念堂,到国会图书馆,花上几天,都转不完。
对杰克逊广场716号,一幢不起眼的4层白色建筑。
那里,就是“总统俱乐部”的登记地址。
房子入口处,铺陈着雅致的蓝色地毯,上面刻有总统的徽章。进入大门,客厅的墙上,镶有从一个半世纪前,杂志上剪下的文章、华盛顿历史地图,以及最近4位总统,与现任总统的肖像。
客厅后面,是一间带书桌和壁炉的办公室,里面,装有多部电话,看不到电脑,书架上,收藏的是:自胡佛以来的总统文件合集。第二层,有两间餐厅:其中,一间装饰豪华,摆满齐本德尔(18世纪英国家具设计师)式椅子,用做正餐;另一间,相对随意,便于来宾在此,享用早餐。第三层,就是总统卧室了,一间,刻有总统徽章的双人床,覆盖着洁净的白色棉布床罩。这间卧室,视野极好,透过窗子,可将拉法叶公园,尽收眼底。第四层,是卧室,各层,由电梯连接。
上世纪50年代末,美国政府买下了这幢建筑。它被用于招待卸任总统,是尼克松主政期间开始的——前任林登·约翰逊知道太多秘密,这儿环境幽静,约翰逊休养舒服了,或许就不会去外面捅篓子。可惜,约翰逊一次也没领过情,尼克松懒得修缮这栋宅邸。
尼克松的继承者-福特,是杰克逊广场716号迎来的头一位贵客,彼时,它不实至名归:整幢建筑,就几间卧室、一间客厅,墙壁上,贴了些画,装修与陈设,都很简朴。这让住惯五星级酒店的前总统及其家人,适应不了
克林顿曾邀请老布什全家,来此消闲,遗憾的是,前第一夫人芭芭拉兴味索然,估计,有住宿条件不佳的因素。
也许是听够了母亲的埋怨,小布什上任后,自掏腰包,对俱乐部驻地,进行了全面修缮。屋子从内到外,都认真收拾了一番,成了现在这番模样,看上去,总算有豪华别墅的派头了。
“总统俱乐部”的历史,就是一部美国历任总统关系的编年史
其实,“秘密度假场所”不能概括“总统俱乐部”的内涵,在过去50年里,围绕这个团体,发生了太多故事,它的历史,就是一部美国历任总统关系的编年史。
1960年前后,民主党候选人肯尼迪,总喜欢在口袋里,放一张纸。那上头,没别的内容,只有一行数字:118574。这个数字,是他入主白宫需要赢得的票数。
当年的大选中,肯尼迪艰难地得到了超过这个数字的选票。对阵双方的得票率,十分接近,肯尼迪为49.7%,对手尼克松为49.5%。然而,大选刚结束,就爆出了民主党涉嫌舞弊的传闻:在共和党的传统地盘-伊利诺伊州和得克萨斯州,肯尼迪的得票,居然大大超出两州民主党登记选民总数。共和党大佬觉得机不可失,纷纷劝说尼克松,重新计票。
万一尼克松要求重新计票,肯尼迪很可能难圆总统梦。后者,坐立不安,很想和对手会上一面,探个虚实。他转念一想,觉得:如果直接去找尼克松,对方很可能根本不搭理自己。
大选结束后,肯尼迪与尼克松正好都在佛罗里达州休假。肯尼迪的父亲-约瑟夫·肯尼迪闻讯灵机一动,拨通了前总统胡佛的电话。胡佛与尼克松是老相识,遂亲自向后者建言:“这个世界的麻烦够多了,有时候,维护统一,不但最可取,并且,至关重要。”言外之意是,尼克松应以大局为重,尽快与肯尼迪会面。尼克松有所顾忌,认为:肯尼迪此举只是“一场廉价的政治秀”,胡佛反驳说,从肯尼迪的角度来看,这样做,显得有雅量。
尼克松仍不放心,认为:应征求现任总统艾森豪威尔的意见。结果,艾克(艾森豪威尔的昵称)的意见,与胡佛一致:“如果你不去,反倒显得落魄。”两人正说着,又一个电话打进来,这次是肯尼迪本人。两位政坛新星就顺水推舟地会了面。后来的事情,尽人皆知:尼克松大度地放弃了重新计票,成全了肯尼迪的总统梦,自己度过了8年,才入主白宫。
克林顿从里根那里,学到了挥手致意的秘诀,令自己终身受益
美国政治评论家南希·吉布斯和迈克尔·达菲认为,无论怎么看,“总统俱乐部”都不是严格法律意义上的团体,更多的,是代表一种“向长者请教”的传统。
的确,从杜鲁门开始,几乎每位卸任总统,都会向他们的继任者,传授几招锦囊妙计:艾森豪威尔教肯尼迪:怎样乘直升机-快速逃生;约翰逊教尼克松:把秘密资料藏在哪儿最保险;福特教卡特:怎样接见民众;尼克松告诉里根:哪些内阁成员该走,哪些该留……
这些妙计,多是美国前总统们多年来,从政经验的结晶,一般,都很复杂、非常人所能把握。惟一的例外是,有一位总统,曾得到过非常简洁、却令他终生受用的建议:如何挥手致意,最酷。
这个故事的主角,就是克林顿。他上任时,尚有5位前辈在世——尼克松、福特、卡特、里根及老布什。这是自1861年林肯就任以来,美国历史上,规模最大的“总统俱乐部”,如果他们都住进杰克逊广场716号,恐怕得有人睡地板。
1992年11月,克林顿赢得大选后,不久,率车队,浩浩荡荡地来到里根位于洛杉矶的住所。这本来是一次礼节性拜访,克林顿起初,并未想从里根那里学到什么。孰料,在谈话后半段,这位鹰派老将,抛出了一个让客人始料未及的话题。
里根注意到,克林顿在竞选时,“军姿化”的挥手姿势,看上去不错,但,有些欠火候。在他看来,如果克林顿一定要用那种致意方式的话,就要表现得更坚决、更有威势。作为带领美国赢得冷战的人,里根比任何政治家都相信,总统要使自己能够取信于人,首先,得让大家觉得:他确实有威信。在公众前现身时,每次得体的挥手,都能有效增强这种威信。
那么,怎样挥手最合适呢?“手起时,要慢,就像手上覆有蜂蜜一样;落下时,要快而坚决,好像粘了某个讨厌的东西,要急于摆脱……”,说到尽兴处,两人都站起身来,里根不厌其烦地帮克林顿练习。
这次谈话,持续了70分钟,临别时,里根送给克林顿一罐软糖。糖很快就被吃光了,那只罐子,和克林顿充满魅力的挥手一起,在白宫,度过了他的两届任期。

Those things in the United States, “President Club”; those things in the United States, “President Club”, time :2012-04.
In January 2009, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George HW Bush and George W. Bush, Obama was invited to visit the White House.
“President Club” is not a secret meeting place, is not the strict legal sense of the group; it reflects more the heritage of former U.S. leaders represent a “consult” to the elderly tradition.
Hoover proposed: “We should set up a President’s Club.” Truman a promise: “You do the President, my secretary.”
If American history a little small, significantly changed the country’s development path, a point on January 20, 1953, one of which should be considered.
U.S. “Time” magazine’s recent cover story, said to this day memorable, Eisenhower held the inauguration; two former presidents for a brief conversation.
Day, the new president mounted the podium, accepted the cheers, the two left out of the former Presidentes – Harry Truman and Herbert Hoover, in the background, met. After some pleasantries, Hoover proposed: “We should set up a President’s Club.”
“Ah well,” Truman simply replied, “you do you, Madam President, I am a secretary.”
The idea of the two, at the time, quite avant-garde – The “not, do not seek the limit of its political practice, the outgoing President of the United States is not convenient direct intervention in the United States government affairs, they occasionally meet, chat, and more household chores , or talk to their own heroic deeds. Are to be creative in this regard, Truman, during his tenure, fully learn to Hoover, learn from the latter extensive experience in humanitarian relief to Europe after World War II, supplied a large number of food in the ruins of hundreds of millions of people , freedom from hunger.
Historians have argued that, if not the elderly help solve the problem of the Hoover, Truman is difficult to clean up the mess after the war alone.
Hoover, Truman mentioned: to establish the “President of the club, maybe, just on a whim, and the subsequent influence, so that they did not expect. Truman after the former President of the United States more and more and the predecessors to them to consult or inform major policy decisions.
People to see: Kennedy announced the blockade of Cuba that morning, he phoned Eisenhower informed of this decision;
During the Clinton years, often taking the time to discuss Russia and China with Nixon;
Osama bin Laden was killed that night, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton, the first time, from Obama there, received the Good News.
Passing through Jackson Square in Washington 716, please be sure to pay attention, there is the registered address of the President’s Club
Washington fascinating place, very much, from the White House to the Capitol from the Lincoln Memorial, the Library of Congress, to spend a few days, have switched to the finish.
Jackson Square, No. 716, a humble four-story white building.
Where is the “President Club” registered address.
At the entrance of the house, lay out an elegant blue carpet, inscribed with the President’s badge. Enter the gate, the living room wall, set with a cut from a half century ago, the magazine article, Washington, historical maps, and the last four presidents, and the current president’s portrait.
Behind the living room, is an office with desk and fireplace, which, equipped with phone, do not see the computer on the shelf, the collection: documents from President since Hoover Collection. The second layer, there are two restaurants: one, a luxuriously decorated, filled with Chippendale (18th century), chair of the British furniture designer, used dinner; another, relatively free, easy to guests at this Breakfast . The third layer is the President of the bedroom, one engraved with the presidential badge double bed, covered with clean white cotton bedspread. This bedroom, excellent vision, through the window of Lafayette Park, a panoramic view. The fourth floor is a bedroom on each floor, connected by the elevator.
The late 1950s, the U.S. government bought this building. It is used to entertain the outgoing President Nixon in power during the beginning – the former Lyndon Johnson knew too many secrets here quiet environment, Johnson rest comfortably, and perhaps would not go out to poke baskets. Unfortunately, Johnson once did not receive love, Nixon too lazy to repair this building mansions.
Nixon’s successor – Ford, Jackson Square No. 716, the head usher in an honored guest, that time, it is not true to its name: the whole building, a few bedrooms, a living room wall, put up some paintings , decoration and furnishings are very simple. This allows the former president and his family used to live in the five-star hotels, can not adapt
Clinton has invited the family of George HW Bush, to this leisure Unfortunately, the former first lady Barbara dull, it is estimated that there are factors of poor accommodation.
Perhaps heard enough complaints of the mother, after George W. Bush took office, out-of-pocket club resident, a comprehensive renovation. House from inside to outside, seriously to pack a lot into such words look like, it seems, finally came up with the trappings of luxury villas.
“President Club” history, is a United States served as the annals of presidential relations
In fact, the “secret retreat can not be summed up the connotation of” President Club “in the past 50 years, around this group, too much story, its history, is a United States served as the annals of presidential relations.
1960, Democratic candidate John F. Kennedy and always like to put a piece of paper in his pocket. That on top, no other content, only a single line number: 118 574. This figure is the number of votes needed to win him the White House.
Year’s general election, Kennedy struggled to get the votes over this figure. Against both sides of the vote, very close to John F. Kennedy was 49.7%, 49.5% in rival Nixon. However, the election just ended, it broke the Democratic Party, rumors of the alleged fraud: the traditional site of the Republican Party – the state of Illinois and Texas, Kennedy’s vote, but still far beyond the two states, the Democratic Party the total number of registered voters. Republican chiefs feel now or have to persuade Nixon, a recount.
In case of Nixon asks for a recount, Kennedy is likely difficult round of the presidential dream. The latter, restless, wanted to, and opponents at the meeting side of the probe of an actual situation. Then he remembered, and think: If you go directly to Nixon, the other party may not pay any attention to their own.
After the elections, Kennedy and Nixon just vacation in Florida. Kennedy’s father – Joseph Kennedy had an idea after hearing the news, called the telephone of former President Hoover. Hoover and Nixon, the old acquaintance was personally suggested to the latter: “the world’s trouble is enough, sometimes, safeguarding unity, not only the most desirable, and crucial.” The implication is that Nixon should consider the greater good as soon as possible to meet with Kennedy. Nixon scruples that: Kennedy move just a cheap political show, Hoover retorted, from Kennedy’s perspective, to do so, it is generous.
Nixon was still worried that: it shall seek the views of the incumbent President Eisenhower. A result, the views of Ike (Eisenhower’s nickname), and Hoover: “If you do not, and have actually seems to come down.” The two were talking, a call comes in, this is Kennedy himself. Two yielded to political star will face. Later, things, well known: Nixon’s generous enough to give up the recount, and fulfill President Kennedy’s dream, he spent eight years before the White House.
Clinton, Reagan there, learned waved the secret to a lifetime
No matter how, “President Club” are not groups in the strict legal sense, represents a kind of “advice to the elderly” tradition American political commentator Nancy Gibbs and Michael Duffy .
Indeed, from the Truman, almost every outgoing president will be to their successors, passing on the recipe for good ideas: Eisenhower taught Kennedy: how to take a helicopter – the quick escape; Johnson taught Nixon: possession of secret information Where most insurance; Ford taught Carter: How to interview people; Nixon told Reagan: What are cabinet members to go and what should stay …
These good ideas, many former U.S. presidents over the years, the crystallization of political experience, in general, are complex, the very people who can grasp. The only exception is that a President had been very simple, made his life-long benefit from the proposal: how waved the coolest.
The protagonist of this story is Bill Clinton. When he took office, there are five predecessors alive – Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan and George HW Bush. This is since Lincoln took office in 1861, the history of the United States, the largest “President Club”, if they are admitted to the Jackson Square No. 716, I’m afraid to sleep on the floor.
In November 1992, Clinton won the election, and soon, the rate of fleet, the mighty came to Reagan’s home in Los Angeles. It would have been a courtesy visit, Clinton at first did not want to learn anything from Reagan there. Guessed that half of the conversation, the hawks veteran, threw out a guest unexpected topic.
Reagan noted that Clinton during the campaign, of “Junzi” waving posture, looks good, but some less heat. In his view, if Clinton must use the kind of pay tribute to the way the words, it is necessary to show more resolute, more power and influence. Lead the United States won the Cold War, Reagan than any politician believe the President to make that they can convince people, first of all have to let everyone think: he is indeed prestigious. Appeared in public before, every decent wave, can effectively enhance that authority.
So, how to wave the most appropriate? Hand from time to time, slowly, as though covered with honey; fall, quickly and resolutely, as if glued a nuisance, eager to get rid of … “Speaking of fun at both stations up, Reagan taken the trouble to help the Clinton practice.
The conversation lasted 70 minutes, parting, Reagan gave Clinton a jar of candy. Sugar to be eaten soon, bird jar and Clinton charming waved together, spent his two terms in the White House.

美國“總統俱樂部”裡那些事;美國“總統俱樂部”裡那些事, 時間:2012-04.
2009年1月,卡特、克林頓、老布什與小布什,應奧巴馬之邀,造訪白宮。
“總統俱樂部”不是一處秘密聚會的場所,也並非嚴格法律意義上的團體;它折射出更多,是歷任美國領導人的傳承,代表了一種“向長者請教”的傳統。
胡佛提議:“我們應該組建一個總統俱樂部。”杜魯門一口答應:“你做主席,我當秘書。”
如果說,美國歷史上的些許小事,顯著地改變了這個國家的發展軌跡,1953年1月20日的某個時刻,應該算是其中之一。
美國《 時代》周刊最近的封面文章,稱,這個日子,值得紀念,艾森豪威爾舉行了就職典禮;兩位前總統一次簡短談話。
那天,就在新總統登上主席台,接受歡呼時,兩位被冷落的前任Presidentes——哈里·杜魯門與赫伯特·胡佛,在後台,相遇了。一番寒暄後,胡佛提議:“我們應該組建一個總統俱樂部。”
“很好啊,”杜魯門乾脆地回答,“你做主席,我當秘書。”
兩人的設想,在當時,頗為前衛——受“不在其位,不謀其政”的慣例限制,卸任的美國總統不方便直接插手美國政務,他們偶爾碰頭,聊的,多是家庭瑣事,或,聊自己的英雄事蹟。在這方面,杜魯門屬於勇於創新,他在任期內,充分地向胡佛取經,汲取後者在人道主義救援上的豐富經驗,向二戰後的歐洲,輸送了大批糧食,讓廢墟中的億萬民眾,免於饑饉。
歷史學家認為,如果沒有胡佛這位長者相助,杜魯門很難獨自收拾戰後的殘局。
胡佛向杜魯門提及:建立“總統俱樂部”,也許,只是一時興起,後續影響力,讓他們始料未及。杜魯門之後,歷任美國總統開始越來越多地和前輩們溝通,向他們諮詢或告知重大決策。
人們看到:在肯尼迪宣布封鎖古巴的那天早上,他打電話給艾森豪威爾,通報了這一決定;
克林頓在任時,經常抽出時間,與尼克松研討俄羅斯和中國問題;
在本·拉登被擊斃的那個夜晚,小布什和克林頓,第一時間,從奧巴馬那裡,收到了這條好消息。
路過華盛頓傑克遜廣場716號時,請務必留心,那裡,就是“總統俱樂部”的登記地址
華盛頓引人入勝的去處,非常多,從白宮,到國會大廈,從林肯紀念堂,到國會圖書館,花上幾天,都轉不完。
對傑克遜廣場716號,一幢不起眼的4層白色建築。
那裡,就是“總統俱樂部”的登記地址。
房子入口處,鋪陳著雅緻的藍色地毯,上面刻有總統的徽章。進入大門,客廳的牆上,鑲有從一個半世紀前,雜誌上剪下的文章、華盛頓歷史地圖,以及最近4位總統,與現任總統的肖像。
客廳後面,是一間帶書桌和壁爐的辦公室,裡面,裝有多部電話,看不到電腦,書架上,收藏的是:自胡佛以來的總統文件合集。第二層,有兩間餐廳:其中,一間裝飾豪華,擺滿齊本德爾(18世紀英國家具設計師)式椅子,用做正餐;另一間,相對隨意,便於來賓在此,享用早餐。第三層,就是總統臥室了,一間,刻有總統徽章的雙人床,覆蓋著潔淨的白色棉布床罩。這間臥室,視野極好,透過窗子,可將拉法葉公園,盡收眼底。第四層,是臥室,各層,由電梯連接。
上世紀50年代末,美國政府買下了這幢建築。它被用於招待卸任總統,是尼克松主政期間開始的——前任林登·約翰遜知道太多秘密,這兒環境幽靜,約翰遜休養舒服了,或許就不會去外面捅簍子。可惜,約翰遜一次也沒領過情,尼克松懶得修繕這棟宅邸。
尼克鬆的繼承者-福特,是傑克遜廣場716號迎來的頭一位貴客,彼時,它不實至名歸:整幢建築,就幾間臥室、一間客廳,牆壁上,貼了些畫,裝修與陳設,都很簡樸。這讓住慣五星級酒店的前總統及其家人,適應不了
克林頓曾邀請老布什全家,來此消閒,遺憾的是,前第一夫人芭芭拉興味索然,估計,有住宿條件不佳的因素。
也許是聽夠了母親的埋怨,小布什上任後,自掏腰包,對俱樂部駐地,進行了全面修繕。屋子從內到外,都認真收拾了一番,成了現在這番模樣,看上去,總算有豪華別墅的派頭了。
“總統俱樂部”的歷史,就是一部美國歷任總統關係的編年史
其實,“秘密度假場所”不能概括“總統俱樂部”的內涵,在過去50年裡,圍繞這個團體,發生了太多故事,它的歷史,就是一部美國歷任總統關係的編年史。
1960年前後,民主黨候選人肯尼迪,總喜歡在口袋裡,放一張紙。那上頭,沒別的內容,只有一行數字:118574。這個數字,是他入主白宮需要贏得的票數。
當年的大選中,肯尼迪艱難地得到了超過這個數字的選票。對陣雙方的得票率,十分接近,肯尼迪為49.7%,對手尼克松為49.5%。然而,大選剛結束,就爆出了民主黨涉嫌舞弊的傳聞:在共和黨的傳統地盤-伊利諾伊州和得克薩斯州,肯尼迪的得票,居然大大超出兩州民主黨登記選民總數。共和黨大佬覺得機不可失,紛紛勸說尼克松,重新計票。
萬一尼克松要求重新計票,肯尼迪很可能難圓總統夢。後者,坐立不安,很想和對手會上一面,探個虛實。他轉念一想,覺得:如果直接去找尼克松,對方很可能根本不搭理自己。
大選結束後,肯尼迪與尼克松正好都在佛羅里達州休假。肯尼迪的父親-約瑟夫·肯尼迪聞訊靈機一動,撥通了前總統胡佛的電話。胡佛與尼克松是老相識,遂親自向後者建言:“這個世界的麻煩夠多了,有時候,維護統一,不但最可取,並且,至關重要。”言外之意是,尼克松應以大局為重,盡快與肯尼迪會面。尼克鬆有所顧忌,認為:肯尼迪此舉只是“一場廉價的政治秀”,胡佛反駁說,從肯尼迪的角度來看,這樣做,顯得有雅量。
尼克松仍不放心,認為:應徵求現任總統艾森豪威爾的意見。結果,艾克(艾森豪威爾的暱稱)的意見,與胡佛一致:“如果你不去,反倒顯得落魄。”兩人正說著,又一個電話打進來,這次是肯尼迪本人。兩位政壇新星就順水推舟地會了面。後來的事情,盡人皆知:尼克松大度地放棄了重新計票,成全了肯尼迪的總統夢,自己度過了8年,才入主白宮。
克林頓從裡根那裡,學到了揮手致意的秘訣,令自己終身受益
美國政治評論家南希·吉布斯和邁克爾·達菲認為,無論怎麼看,“總統俱樂部”都不是嚴格法律意義上的團體,更多的,是代表一種“向長者請教”的傳統。
的確,從杜魯門開始,幾乎每位卸任總統,都會向他們的繼任者,傳授幾招錦囊妙計:艾森豪威爾教肯尼迪:怎樣乘直升機-快速逃生;約翰遜教尼克松:把秘密資料藏在哪兒最保險;福特教卡特:怎樣接見民眾;尼克松告訴裡根:哪些內閣成員該走,哪些該留……
這些妙計,多是美國前總統們多年來,從政經驗的結晶,一般,都很複雜、非常人所能把握。惟一的例外是,有一位總統,曾得到過非常簡潔、卻令他終生受用的建議:如何揮手致意,最酷。
這個故事的主角,就是克林頓。他上任時,尚有5位前輩在世——尼克松、福特、卡特、裡根及老布什。這是自1861年林肯就任以來,美國歷史上,規模最大的“總統俱樂部”,如果他們都住進傑克遜廣場716號,恐怕得有人睡地板。
1992年11月,克林頓贏得大選後,不久,率車隊,浩浩蕩盪地來到裡根位於洛杉磯的住所。這本來是一次禮節性拜訪,克林頓起初,並未想從裡根那裡學到什麼。孰料,在談話後半段,這位鷹派老將,拋出了一個讓客人始料未及的話題。
裡根注意到,克林頓在競選時,“軍姿化”的揮手姿勢,看上去不錯,但,有些欠火候。在他看來,如果克林頓一定要用那種致意方式的話,就要表現得更堅決、更有威勢。作為帶領美國贏得冷戰的人,裡根比任何政治家都相信,總統要使自己能夠取信於人,首先,得讓大家覺得:他確實有威信。在公眾前現身時,每次得體的揮手,都能有效增強這種威信。
那麼,怎樣揮手最合適呢? “手起時,要慢,就像手上覆有蜂蜜一樣;落下時,要快而堅決,好像粘了某個討厭的東西,要急於擺脫……”,說到盡興處,兩人都站起身來,裡根不厭其煩地幫克林頓練習。
這次談話,持續了70分鐘,臨別時,裡根送給克林頓一罐軟糖。糖很快就被吃光了,那隻罐子,和克林頓充滿魅力的揮手一起,在白宮,度過了他的兩屆任期。
