...Brother night. His girlfriend, who had managed to grab a seat, nods vigorously in agreement. The couple come often to this venue known for its faux thatched roof, green foliage and towering statue of a giraffe. Up the winding bamboo steps are groups of men huddled around tables to watch a soccer game on one TV. An equally large, but mixed-gender throng has gathered on the other side of the bar to catch the season finale of Big Brother.

Most Americans have never seen a politician like Paul--humble and unassuming, wise and unwavering. He is not a flip-flopper, and he votes on principle. Watch this guy.

Crime declined on Kerik's watch, though the big drop had taken place years before. After years of mutual hostility, City Hall's relations with local African-American leaders slowly began to heal. Kerik's press was good, but unlike Bratton, Kerik took care to stay in Giuliani's shadow when it mattered. By the time Kerik stepped down in 2002, Giuliani was the godfather to two of Kerik's kids. The two men then took their...
