When You Read This, You'll Have an Advantage. You Will Know
1 Prelude March 2010 hen you read this, you’ll have an advantage. you will know who won. As i begin to write, however, i’m not even sure W who’s running. That the republican candidate for the United states senate from pennsylvania in 2010 will be forty-eight-year- old patrick Joseph Toomey, sr., of Zionsville in the lehigh valley is the only certainty. Well, that and the likelihood that this race will prove to be among the most compelling of a particularly tumultuous election year. Who wouldn’t want to write about it? Toomey’s opponent, to be determined in the may 18 Democratic primary, will be either the five-term incumbent, eighty-year-old Arlen specter of philadelphia, or fifty-eight-year-old former admiral and Congressman Joseph A. sestak, Jr., of secane, Delaware County, in the philadelphia suburbs. For Toomey, facing specter in the 2010 general election would represent a peculiar rematch of their very close primary contest in 2004. There is nothing new about trying to define each party’s ideologi- cal distinctions. Almost five decades ago Barry Goldwater pledged “a choice, not an echo.” some three decades before that, when the power of his improbable new Deal electoral coalition was at its height, Frank- lin roosevelt mused about party realignment, on the english style, with everyone on the right united under the republican banner, and all those on the left (a perpetual majority, he hoped) gathered under the great tent 2 / Chapter 1 of the Democrats. it never happened. But, in whatever form, the two-party system has survived, despite the occasional emergence of a George Wallace or ross perot.

Former DNC Chairs Urge Fellow Democrats to Support Trade Promotion Authority
Former DNC Chairs Urge Fellow Democrats to Support Trade Promotion Authority March 26, 2015 To Fellow Members of the Democratic Party, As former DNC Chairs, we are proud to be leaders in a Party that seeks to strengthen the middle class and ensure America’s safety and security. To that end, we support granting Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) to President Obama. TPA originates from the earliest trade negotiating authority, passed by the New Deal Congress in 1934 and signed into law by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. During the last four decades Congress has granted every President, Democrat and Republican alike, some version of trade promotion authority. To continue this bipartisan tradition, we stand behind the head of our Party, President Obama, in his quest for long-standing negotiating authority that allows Congress and the Executive branch to work together to pursue trade agreements that benefit Americans across the country. Moreover, TPA will clear a path for the President to pursue his pro-growth trade agenda—an agenda that will move America forward. As Democrats, we believe in rebuilding middle class security by putting Americans back to work. America's trade agreements are delivering for middle class families and our economic security. Our seventeen most recent trade agreements have improved the goods trade balance by $30 billion every year—that is some serious progress. The United States exported $2.35 trillion in Made-in-America goods and services in 2014, our fifth record-breaking year in a row. The increase in U.S. exports has contributed one-third of our economic growth and added $760 billion to our economy between 2009-2014.
