Next come the technocrats like William Howard Taft and Herbert Hoover, who both arrived with long r??sums of appointed posts but virtually no electoral experience. This category might also include Jimmy Carter, who despite several years in the Georgia legislature and governor's office maintained an essentially bureaucratic outlook toward White House affairs.

(Suggestion: “A club without [insert your name] cannot stand.”) Give him an extra copy of your r??sumé carried in your rolling backpack. (Mind the member’s shoes.) And if you don’t get an envelope for Round 2, slip your own envelopes under members’ doors with statements like, “Did you forget...
