The Power Behind the Throne
When Rahm Emanuel entered the West Wing in December 2008, he felt a genuine chill. In six weeks, he would become Barack Obama's chief of staff amid economic collapse, frozen credit markets, a failing auto industry, and two stalled wars. The headline in The Onion wasn't far off: "Black Man Given Nation's Worst Job." Despite his reputation as a stiletto-tongued infighter, Emanuel was genuinely scared. That morning, an extraordinary gathering was taking place-a bipartisan fraternity of former chiefs of staff assembled to advise him. This rare moment highlighted an essential truth: the White House chief of staff role transcends partisanship, representing perhaps the most consequential non-elected position in American government. Through this powerful gatekeeper role, presidents succeed or fail based largely on who stands at their right hand.
