Notice there hasn't been a scandalous "tell all" Obama admin book?

I don't think there's going to be. Because I think that was (except possibly for Carter's) the most ethical and transparent administration of the past century.

This struck me as I was reading conflicting leaks from the various current WH factions. It looks juvenile compared to what Obama made look normal and effortless.

For one reason: Because they are both extremely competent politicians but not white males.

In certain circles left and right, leadership is exclusively the province of white males. Everyone else is an usurper.
