PRESIDENTS LUNCH

Goeb/Getty President George W. Bush (c.) stands with President-elect Barack Obama (2nd from l.), and former presidents Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush and Jimmy Carter.


It is seven in the morning on the East Coast. If you are standing at the White House kitchen door you can smell the wafting aroma of fine foods being prepared. The chefs have been busy for hours cooking a top secret menu for today's special luncheon.

President George W. Bush is hosting this afternoon's luncheon for all the living former presidents (Jimmy Carter, George Herbert ,Walker Bush, Bill Clinton) and President Elect Barack Obama. I talk about this power lunch in a fun and lively interview on National Public Radio's All Things Considered show. You can listen here.
