Hillary Clinton was raised in Middle America by anticommunist conservatives; Barack Obama, in Hawaii, a young witness to the downsides of America's foreign influence. This has drastically shaped the unlikely pair's differing beliefs over what they regard to be the central issue of our time: American power abroad. In Alter Egos: Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and the Twilight Struggle Over American Power, White House correspondent for The New York Times Mark Landler draws on his exclusive insider access to the Obama White House to paint a picture of the relationship that has framed our nation's great debates over war and peace for the past eight years. As Clinton runs for a presidency relying largely on Obama's base, it's worth revisiting those differences and what they may mean for America's--and the world's--future.
