Lawyer+ 2015-2016 Dean’S Report The McKinney Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law Spring 2017 Issue Lawyer+ 2015-2016 Dean’s Report Alumnus Mike Pence, ‘86, Elected Vice President of the United States Office of Professional Development Nurtures Careers and Inspires Alumni Support CBS News’ 48 Hours Program Features Work of Professor Fran Watson and Students Message from the Dean This issue of our alumni magazine, The McKinney Lawyer, includes our annual Dean’s Report, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your generosity to our law school. Your philanthropy is critical to our ability to carry out the school’s educational mission. In this issue, you will read about the impact of your support, including how alumni giving allows our Office of Professional Development to provide important program- ming that assists our students as they navigate the job search process. You also will see how our centers and programs are confronting important issues of the day, and how students benefit from scholarships that make a legal education more affordable. Reading through the magazine reinforces my longstanding belief that a contribu- tion to our school is not only an investment in our institution, but in society as a whole. In this issue, we cover alumni who are serving in elected offices—locally, statewide, and nationally. We highlight the work of alumni who have dedicated their careers to public interest causes, and we honor our students, who participate at the highest lev- els in our Pro Bono Program. Last year, the graduating class of 2016 collectively do- nated nearly 20,000 pro bono hours throughout their law school careers. Think about that—and about how many underserved individuals in the community were helped by IU McKinney law students. Our societal impact doesn’t stop there. Through our newest clinical program, the Child Advocacy Law Clinic, students are sworn in as guardians ad litem, and provide representation for children in the Marion County child welfare system. You will also see an article about the efforts of our Black Law Students Association, which orga- nized programs to benefit formerly-incarcerated individuals, including a job and re- source fair that garnered more than 150 participants. In addition, this issue of the magazine includes a follow-up story about our clinic professor, Fran Watson, and her students, who worked tirelessly toward the exonera- tion of their wrongfully convicted clients through the Innocence Project. Just last month, their story and that of their clients was shown across the country on the CBS News program, 48 Hours. Our students and faculty are in the community, making a difference, every day. Your contributions to our school are critical in making that happen—and for that, I thank you. Andrew R. Klein Dean and Paul E. Beam Professor of Law IU Robert H.

  • Picking the Vice President
    Picking the Vice President Elaine C. Kamarck Brookings Institution Press Washington, D.C. Contents Introduction 4 1 The Balancing Model 6 The Vice Presidency as an “Arranged Marriage” 2 Breaking the Mold 14 From Arranged Marriages to Love Matches 3 The Partnership Model in Action 20 Al Gore Dick Cheney Joe Biden 4 Conclusion 33 Copyright 36 Introduction Throughout history, the vice president has been a pretty forlorn character, not unlike the fictional vice president Julia Louis-Dreyfus plays in the HBO seriesVEEP . In the first episode, Vice President Selina Meyer keeps asking her secretary whether the president has called. He hasn’t. She then walks into a U.S. senator’s office and asks of her old colleague, “What have I been missing here?” Without looking up from her computer, the senator responds, “Power.” Until recently, vice presidents were not very interesting nor was the relationship between presidents and their vice presidents very consequential—and for good reason. Historically, vice presidents have been understudies, have often been disliked or even despised by the president they served, and have been used by political parties, derided by journalists, and ridiculed by the public. The job of vice president has been so peripheral that VPs themselves have even made fun of the office. That’s because from the beginning of the nineteenth century until the last decade of the twentieth century, most vice presidents were chosen to “balance” the ticket. The balance in question could be geographic—a northern presidential candidate like John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts picked a southerner like Lyndon B.

Georgia law provided for a runoff if no candidate in the regularly scheduled November 3 general election received in excess of 50 percent of the vote. The 1992 runoff in Georg a was a hotly contested race between the Democratic incumbent Wyche Fowler, and his Republican opponent, Paul Coverdell. The Republicans presented this election as a %ust-win81 election. Exhibit 1.
