Kennedy, Jr. We were honored to hear from Senator Edward Kennedy, Caroline Kennedy, and other dignitaries and IOP friends on this special occasion. • Students participated in the campaigns of all major presidential candidates. • We hosted eight of the leading Democratic Presidential contenders for live question-and-answer sessions hosted by MSNBC’s Chris Matthews. • Our Resident Fellows this semester are a diverse group – the former four- term Republican mayor of Knoxville, an executive at DreamWorks and an expert on the youth perspective on policy issues, the Vice President of Programs at the Reverend Jesse Jackson’s Rainbow/PUSH Coalition, a Democratic political strategist with 25 years’ experience teaching, writ- ing, and working in American politics, the Washington Bureau Chief of the Chicago Sun-Times, and the former Governor of Minnesota. Interest and participation in their study groups has been unprecedented. • Our most recent national poll on the political personality of America’s college students finds they are frustrated about the war and the job market and leaning in favor of Senator Kerry. Many know little about the Democratic nominee, however, so his support is soft. Sixty-two percent are following the campaign and are “definitely” planning to vote, an indication that the youth vote, centrist and highly independent, could be a significant factor in the 2004 election. • Bringing together more than a dozen other institutions of higher edu- cation from across America, we are leading a major national effort to encourage participation and engagement in politics by America’s college students, under the banner of the National Campaign for Political and To subscribe to the Civic Engagement.

Kennedy, addressing the ceremony, said, “The School of Government and that very special part of it called The Institute of Politics is the memorial that would have meant the most to my brother. From the beginning a generation ago, the IOP had a powerful hold on our family, and especially as it gradually came to be the place where Jack’s son John found he could almost hear his father’s voice, calling us all to serve our country. It is fitting that this special place, where he felt that the vital effort to make democracy better was being made so well, will now be named in his honor.” “John loved nothing more than discussing ideas and the issues of the day. “John loved nothing He was inspired by the conversations that took place in this Forum, and this more than discussing is a wonderful tribute to him,” said Caroline Kennedy.

INSTITUTE OF POLITICS 3 College Students’ Views of President Bush Grow More Mixed The IOP’s spring 2004 national survey of college students finds that Democrat John Kerry holds a 10-point lead over President Bush, though Senator John Kerry Kerry’s support is soft. Support for Senator Kerry seems to reflect growing dissatisfaction with the war in Iraq, a continued weak job market, and the leads President President’s stance on gay marriage. This represents a turnaround from our George Bush among fall poll, which found college students more supportive of the President than college students, was the general public. The poll also includes a new method for assessing the political ideology of 48% to 38%. America’s college students. The 11-question “IOP Political Personality Test” finds that the old “liberal” and “conservative” labels do not fit a majority of today’s college students, who are mostly centrists and highly independent. The test is available online at www.iop.harvard.edu for those who would like to determine how their views compare to those of America’s college students. “Concern over the war in Iraq and weakness in the job market has caught up with President Bush,” said IOP Director Dan Glickman during a press “Concern over the conference at the National Press Club in Washington. “College students now war in Iraq and share the general public’s more mixed view of the President, and Senator weakness in the job Kerry is benefiting from that shift. Still, these are highly independent voters market has caught up who are open to persuasion and it would be in the interests of both parties to court them aggressively.” with President Bush. The survey of 1205 college students, drawn randomly from a national College students now database of nearly 5.1 million students, finds – share the general • They favor Kerry over Bush, but Kerry’s support is soft. Sen. Kerry public’s more mixed leads President Bush by 48 to 38 percent. Ralph Nader draws five percent of the vote. But Kerry’s support is soft.

Support for the war in Iraq dropped from 58 percent six months ago to IOP Director 49 percent. At the same time, Bush’s job approval rating fell 14 points, from 61 percent to 47 percent. • They continue to view the job market as weak.

  • An Ambitious New Plan Offers Delta Water and Economic Hope for the San Joaquin Valley
    August 12, 2020 Western Edition Volume 2, Number 30 An ambitious new plan offers Delta water and economic hope for the San Joaquin valley The San Joaquin Valley is bracing for the economic impacts to come from implementing the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act over the next 20 years. Without changes, the regulation could lead to more than a million acres of fallowing and as much as $7 billion in lost revenues every year, with the worst financial impacts rippling down to California’s most disadvantaged communities, according to a report released earlier this year. With this reality, a coalition has emerged around a complex and ambitious approach to bring water to the valley, one that could head off the A new plan takes a different approach to Delta water flows.

The Difference One Man Makes: A Look at Presidential Power and What Could Have Been By John T. Sullivan University Honors Thesis Dr. Barbara Brown July 1992 A question often posed in theoretical discussions is whether or not one person can make a difference in the ebb and flow of history. We might all agree that if that one person were a President of the United states, a difference could be made; but how much? While the presidency is the single most powerful position in the U.s. federal system of government, making it a formidable force in world affairs also, most scholars agree that the presidency, itself, is very limited, structurally. The success of a president in setting the nation along a desired course rests with the ingredients brought to the position by the person elected to it. Further, many events occur outside the control of the president. Fortune or failure depends upon how the individual in office reacts to these variables.

  • What's Next for the United States?
    February 2021 Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung Office USA, Washington, D.C. What's next for the United States? Part 2: Climate Change and Energy Supply By Sabine Murphy How is the Biden administration changing the direction of the U.S.? The KAS Office USA takes a first look, in a series of five country reports. This report deals with climate and energy challenges. The White House website promises “swift action to tackle the climate emergency” and a “clean energy revolution”. Key Policy Goals The Biden-Harris administration doesn’t make it a secret that the fight against climate change is on top of the to-do-list. Climate is prominently listed on the White House website as one of seven top policy priorities. It states: “President Biden will take swift action to tackle the climate emergency. The Biden administration will ensure we meet the demands of science, while empowering American workers and businesses to lead a clean energy revolution.”1 The Biden administration takes a decidedly different approach to energy use and the impact of rising temperatures on the environment than its predecessor. After four years of the Trump administration denying scientific findings about climate change, Biden has pledged to follow science and involve the entire federal government in the fight against climate change. By creating inter-agency working groups and a National Climate Task Force, Biden wants to ensure that his policies for the production of clean energy and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, are not limited to single agencies but will be implemented throughout the federal government. During his campaign, Biden promised to reach a goal of net-zero emissions across the economy before 2050, and to eliminate pollution caused by fossil fuel in electricity production by 2035.

  • Quotes About the Speech
    Quotes about the Speech When his campaign was in peril because of his ties to Rev. Wright, Barack Obama made that remarkable speech about race and his own journey, and his relationship with Wright in Philadelphia. That held his campaign together; a very key moment. ~George Stephanopoulos, ABC News [The] best speech ever given on race in this country. This is the kind of speech I think first graders should see, people in the last year of college should see before they go out in the world. This should be, to me, an American tract. ~Chris Matthews, MSNBC Obama challenged Americans to confront the country’s racial divide…an extraordinary speech. ~Charles Gibson, ABC News Quietly, but clearly with great passion, he walked the listener through a remarkable exploration of race from both sides of the color divide, both sides of himself. ~ Campbell Brown, CNN [T]the best speech and most important speech on race that we have heard as a nation since Martin Luther King's ‘I Have a Dream’ speech. ~Michelle Bernard, MSNBC Barack Obama didn't simply touch the touchiest subject in America, he grabbed it and turned it over and examined it from several different angles and made it personal. Just steps from Independence Hall in Philadelphia, he rang the bell hard and well. ~Jonathan Alter, Newsweek In a speech whose frankness about race many historians said could be likened only to speeches by Presidents Lyndon B. Johnson, John F. Kennedy and Abraham Lincoln, Senator Barack Obama, speaking across the street from where the Constitution was written, traced the country’s race problem back to not simply the country’s ‘original sin of slavery’ but the protections for it embedded in the Constitution.
