As a student of history I was really hoping for insight into what accounted for Dick Cheney's quiet caculating mind, what set the power grab mentality in motion and how he thought "ten steps ahead" as I remember him being referred to as Darth Cheney. I lived through this presidency as an adult and remember thinking that he was the guy in charge and it was scary as we knew very little about him. All I learned that he was an avereage student with a bitchy wife and somehow he caught onto to the politics of Washington. Lynne came across as articulate and calculating and Dick as well, a dick. did not learn what made Cheney tick and I was disappointed.
