The Millennials’ Moment: Why 2014 Does Matter
- Details
When Senator Barack Obama was elected in 2008 with a majority vote over Republican Senator John McCain, he was heralded as a possibly transformational President -- potentially in the same category as Franklin D. Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan. I know that argument well. I was one of the pundits making the case. It seemed very simple then: like his two iconic predecessors, Mr. Obama's election created a new demographic coalition, one so radically different than before and one that would surely dominate the national landscape for at least a generation.

Voters to Democrats and Republicans: 'Stop, You Both Stink'
- Details
Politics is such a cynical exercise and it is out of control. Both of our major parties, which have ceased to be problem-solvers, now rely exclusively on a lowest-common-denominator approach to marketing: if you can’t vote for my candidate, I am at least going to convince you to not vote for theirs. In this one respect, the system seems to be working. Democrats are saying that demographics are on their side; Republicans say that President Barack Obama is the worst President since World War II. And this is what we are treated to as voters as we head toward the congressional elections in November.
