Pulitzer Prize-winning author Ron Suskind is out with a new book today on President Barack Obama's economic team that has the White House rattled.
The book, "Confidence Men: Wall Street, Washington, and the Education of a President," reveals a disorganized — and at times insubordinate — staff working under Obama, and an inexperienced president struggling to control them.
“The administration’s domestic policy was fast becoming a debate society run by Larry Summers,” Suskind writes. “Obama would sit on high, trying to judge if there was any shared ground between the competing debate teams that might coalesce into a policy.”
