Where
Have All the Leaders Gone?
By Lee Iacocca with Catherine Whitney
"Stay the course." Stay the course?
You've got to be kidding. This is America, not the damned Titanic. The
President of the United States is given a free pass to ignore the

handcuffs. That's not the promise of America my parents and yours traveled
across the ocean for.
