Enterprise Report Restoring Liberty, Opportunity, and Enterprise in America Issue No. 5, Winter 2019 Enterprise Report Restoring Liberty, Opportunity, and Enterprise in America Defending American Leadership By AEI President Robert Doar As we enter the new year, I am full of gratitude for the excellent work of AEI scholars and the support of the AEI community in 2019. I am thankful for the warm welcome I received from many of you in my first six months as president of AEI, and I look forward to meeting more AEI supporters and community members in the coming year. The year ahead is sure to hold many challenges for our country. This is, however, precisely the moment that AEI’s investments in long-term visionary thinking and empirical scholarship will pay off. In the past year, AEI has bolstered our scholar ranks with key hires in Social, Cultural, and Constitution Studies and Domestic Policy Studies. At every opportunity, these and other AEI scholars will push back against ideas that hinder a free and open economy or promote antidemocratic values around the world. One area that will be hotly debated in a contentious election year—both in Washington and at kitchen tables across the country—is foreign policy. The long-standing consensus on America’s role in the world is breaking down. This “The year ahead is sure to hold many challenges for your country. This is, however, precisely the moment that AEI’s investments in long-term visionary thinking and empirical scholarship will pay off.” challenge requires a vigorous and clear defense of a strong American presence on the world stage—advocating for free people, free trade, democracy, self-government, and strong alliances that protect weaker states from the reach of more powerful nations such as China, Iran, and Russia. Our nation needs new and innovative thinking about the best ways to bring these values to bear on today’s global realities. At this critical time in our nation’s history, I am pleased to announce that we have named Kori Schake to lead these efforts as the incoming resident scholar and director Robert Doar of AEI’s Foreign and Defense Policy team. Kori’s experience working under President AEI President and George W. Bush at the State Department, Defense Department, and National Security Morgridge Scholar Council, as well as her highly respected academic work and popular writings, makes her the right choice to lead our foreign and defense team. Most importantly, Kori understands that the United States is an exceptional nation that plays a special role in the world. You can read more about her background on page 4 of the Enterprise Report. I would also like to express my gratitude to AEI’s longtime vice president of Foreign and Defense Policy, Danielle Pletka, who decided in June to step down from her managerial responsibilities to focus on her own scholarly work. Under her leadership, the team has achieved new heights and has been an unparalleled defender of American values and leadership. I am grateful that Dany is staying on as an AEI senior scholar and that we will continue to benefit from her scholarship and mentorship. As you will read in the pages of this Enterprise Report, Dany’s successor will be leading an extremely productive and talented group of scholars. On issues from veterans’ affairs to Chinese demographic change to instability in the Middle East, AEI scholars are making original, valuable contributions that deepen our understanding of our country’s challenges, bolster our national security, and advance the case for freedom around the world. You will also read about AEI’s three newest trustees—Martin Eltrich, Jody Jonsson, and Pat Neal—and the efforts of Andrew Klaber, a leader in AEI’s Enterprise Club. With a strong bench of scholars and the leadership of these AEI community members—and supporters like you—AEI is prepared to face the challenges of the coming year with intelligent, fact-driven, and civil analysis. Thank you for your support. AEI Annual Dinner and Irving Kristol Award Honors Ambassador Nikki Haley On October 29, nearly 2,000 members of the AEI community gathered in Washington, DC, to honor former US Permanent Representative to the United Nations and Governor of South Carolina Nikki Haley with the Irving Kristol Award, the highest honor conferred by AEI. Amb. Haley’s remarks focused on the principles and values that make America an exceptional nation—equality before the law, freedom, and inalienable rights—and the importance of leading “Equality before the law. Freedom. Inalienable rights. These are not the world in accordance with those abstractions. They are our inheritance as human beings. The Declaration values.

  • Movie Discussion Resource.Vice
    Movie discussion resource Vice (2018) Engage with culture without disengaging your faith. Genre: Drama/biopic Rating: MA15+ (for some violent images) Length: 132 minutes Starring: Christian Bale, Amy Adams,Steve Carell, Sam Rockwell Writer/Director: Adam McKay Synopsis “Vice” covers 50 years in the life of Dick Cheney (Christian Bale), beginning in his early years as a Wyoming-based electrical worker, Yale dropout, and drunken disappointment to his strong-willed and influential wife Lynne (Amy Adams). Advised to either clean up his act or lose his family, Cheney eventually finds his footing in politics, starting off as a Congressional intern in the Nixon Administration, where he is mentored by Donald Rumsfeld (Steve Carell) and gains an intimate understanding of the power system and how to thrive within it. After a successful political career that included earning the roles of White House Chief of Staff under Gerald Ford, 5 terms in Congress, and Secretary of Defence to George H.W. Bush, Cheney puts politics in his rearview to focus on his family and gain wealth in the role of CEO at oil behemoth Halliburton. At this point Cheney could have settled happily into retirement. When George H.W. Bush’s “black sheep” son, George W. (Sam Rockwell), decides to run for presi- dent in 2000, he asks Cheney to be his VP. Cheney sees an opportunity to transform the sym- bolic position into the most powerful role in the Oval Office. When Bush unexpectedly beats Al Gore in the 2000 election, Cheney is given carte blanche in selecting the transition team, which he populates with PNAC (see explanation below) loyalists.

  • Remarks by Lynne V. Cheney, Chairman National Endowment For
    Remarks by Lynne V. Cheney, Chairman National Endowment for the Humanities at the 76th Annual Meeting of the Association of American Colleges San Francisco, California January 13, 1990 It is indeed a pleasure to be here today at this gathering sponsored by the Association of American Colleges. With an organization that has so long been an advocate of the humanities making this event possible, I know that I do not have to begin in the way I often do: that is, by explaining what the humanities are. There is confusion on this point, as my mail frequently makes clear. I received a letter not long ago addressed to the Natural Endowment for the Humanities--a mistake that has a certain woodsy charm about it. My favorite misaddressed piece of mail, though, was a card sent to me recently at the National Endowment for the Amenities. Being here gives me opportunity to thank the American Association of Colleges for its support of the humanities and also to congratulate this organization for the excellence of its research on higher education generally. Reports like Integrity in the College Curriculum, which has become something of a classic, and the more recent Those Who Can are remarkable for their frank assessments of our colleges and universities, as well as for specific recommendations for change. In the world of higher education, making frank assessments and specific recommendations isn't always easy. As those of you at this conference know well, the academy can be a contentious place, with rules of engagement far tougher than those that prevail in the political world at large.
