Maybe the meeting at the Trump Plaza Hotel & Casino is not destined to be remembered along with Yalta and Potsdam as one of history's great summits.

Surprising too because of the label attached to people like Thomas, Luis and Amar--folks who leave stable jobs, pack up and head west to pan for Internet...
...M.B.A. from Harvard in 1990. After saving a faltering software company, becoming a multimillionaire and finding God, he joined the G.O.P. In 1997 he met the Bushes. "I was always very enthusiastic about W.," he says. "I loved what he's done in Texas, and his dad is a great man. But I had no idea this was going to explode...
