The column criticizes Bill Clinton's Africa trip as failing to advance rule of law or smaller government. It notes his Nigeria visit and Obasanjo's democracy, plus Ayittey's cautions on fragile institutions, judiciary building, and fiscal restraint. It argues true reform requires stronger institutions, not reliance on leaders.

The Rise and Fall of Newt Gingrich review by Mona Charen

Mona Charen critiques PBS documentary The Rise and Fall of Newt Gingrich tracing Gingrich's 1998 rise and collapse amid budget battles and Lewinsky fallout. The piece questions his leadership, moral stance, and impact on the 1998 midterms while noting his control and missteps. It contrasts Gingrich with the era’s political mood and highlights Charen’s Reagan White House perspective.
