Leadership vs. Loyalty What a brilliant piece Michael Duffy wrote on Rudolph Giuliani and his loyalty to Bernard Kerik [Nov. 26]. Duffy's snapshot provided one of the most concise and intriguing portraits of a political animal that I have ever read. He truly captured Giuliani through the prism of his relationship with Kerik, possibly his closest ally.

...dichotomy of business vs. service at Harvard, and the domination of the former over the latter in its appeal to graduating students, is nothing new. Big business has been the preferred career of Harvard graduates for as long as there have been investment banks to work at, even in the ostensibly counter-culture ’60s. The Class of 1967 entered Harvard ready and willing to shoulder the task of dismantling the apparatus of segregation and poverty in America. Barely a month later, President John F. Kennedy ’40, the country’s greatest symbol...
