Politico: “The pre-presidential campaign book — that quadrennial rite in which anyone running for president, thinking about running or even denying they’re running releases a hardcover book with their name on it — has long been known as a stale, if obligatory, step on the path to the Oval Office. But this year, two prominent likely presidential contenders have decided that if they can’t quite ditch the genre, they can wrap it in a shiny new digital package.”
