Youth Voters Feel Defeated by system
A year ago I hosted my first Living Room Conversation, the topic was youth voting— more specifically why youth choose to register or not. One year later I chose to revisit this subject with the added implication of the upcoming presidential election. I sat down this time with Robin Blades, my closest childhood friend. We had recently gone on a long trip together and our disagreement within

Foreign policy is the new focus on the 2016 campaign trail in the wake of the deadly terrorist attacks in Paris, marking a fresh chapter in the race for the White House that has so far focused on issues such as immigration, the economy and bringing change to Washington.

Report: GOP Is So Panicked Outsiders Trump or Carson Might Win, They Are Considering This Drastic Measure
The Republican establishment is apparently in panic mode over the once improbable now increasingly possible nomination of Donald Trump or Ben Carson — so much so that the party is pondering a move to draft Mitt Romney, the Washington Post reported.
Romney already declined to enter the contest, but according to the Post, some Republican strategists fear that either of the two leading

California and New York Show the Ugly Face of ‘Progress’
Don’t be fooled by the dozen people on stage for Tuesday’s Democratic presidential debate. For now, this is a two-person contest between Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren, who have distanced themselves from the rest of the pack in national polls and in the early-voting states.
We know that many liberal elites, particularly in the media, would prefer to replace President Trump with a hard-

Iowa might have just witnessed the start of a Democratic Party takeover
If you were an alien visiting Iowa this weekend and were asked to guess the order of Monday’s results based on nothing but watching the top four Democrats speak, you would predict a Sanders victory, followed by Warren, Buttigieg, and Biden. (You would probably have a lot of other questions too: like what the hell is a Kum & Go, what is up with the giant windmills along I-80 blinking in

The FBI, the 2016 Election and the Confidence Deficit
A week out from Election Day, here's the only thing we're sure of after Friday's bombshell political news that the Federal Bureau of Investigation is one again looking at Hillary Clinton's emails: Another U.S. institution -- the FBI -- has taken a hit. (It's especially true after all of the obvious leaks coming from the FBI and Justice Department.) And that news isn't good for the country's

Liberals keep denigrating the new nationalism as racist. This is nonsense.
Have you noticed that liberals think Donald Trump and his supporters are racists? You may have missed it if you didn't read the lead story on the front page of Saturday's New York Times, or watch one of three late-night talk shows on Monday night, or pay attention to Hillary Clinton's "deplorables" speech earlier this month, or follow the array of articles that appeared over the following week

Democrats Are Stuck with Biden
He remains their best choice, and that’s not really a good thing.
Joe Biden is still the Democrats’ best bet in 2024 — I stand by that. His poll numbers have steadied as gas prices have fallen, and broken supply chains have healed. He doesn’t inspire the intensity of fear and loathing among Republicans that Bill Clinton and Barack Obama did. Yes, his party went on a spending spree at
