Complete Record: Examines the effects of the man on the office and the office on the man; the changing nature of presidential power; the new realities of the presidency. Every election year the American public cries out for leadership and the candidates promise new directions. But the constraints imposed on the presidency make it more difficult to lead, more difficult to institute reform. Film clips of Presidents at work together with comments by participants in and observers of the political scene such as George Reedy, Gerald Ford, Jody Powell, John Ehrlichman, Barbara Jordan, Abraham Ribicoff and others, put the American presidency into perspective.
