...even over dinner, TIME's staff wrestled with some wonderful historical dilemmas: Lenin or Stalin? Mao Zedong or Deng Xiaoping? The answers were closely reasoned and thoroughly researched. The editors also solicited the opinions of readers, who let us know what they thought by letter, E-mail and fax. Our Website time.com alone collected nearly 7 million votes. (Kemal Ataturk, the founder of modern Turkey, drew several million.) In the end the editors balanced popularity with legacy and influence with impact to produce a collection that both engages and surprises. And if there is someone you thought for sure should...

It was a memorable bread-and-butter note, a valentine to her host, the President, written in the prose of a Harlequin romance: she sees "a man in a dinner jacket with more heat than any star in the room...his height, his sleekness, his newly cropped, iron-filing hair." Forget, wrote Brown, "all the Beltway halitosis breathed upon his image...
...Brown's "Fax" was truly distinguished, if gooey, nonsense: the present, exciting and vivid, is more real than anything else, if only we, like Clinton, have the nerve to embrace it. This is the sort of thinking that got Emma Bovary into trouble. But the thought is also a kind of bull's-eye.
