GRAND RAPIDS AND ANN ARBOR--Acclaimed author, and award-winning journalist and producer, Chris Whipple, discussed the role the White House Chief of Staff plays in the modern presidency. The White House's Chiefs of Staff, often referred to as "gatekeepers," wield tremendous power in Washington D.C. and beyond; they decide who is allowed to see the president, negotiate with Congress to push the president's agenda, and enjoy unparalleled access to the leader of the free world.
