  • CHAPTER 12 PENNSYLVANIA Following Hillary Clinton's Big Victories in the Texas and Ohio Democratic Primaries, the 2008 Campaig
    CHAPTER 12 PENNSYLVANIA Following Hillary Clinton’s big victories in the Texas and Ohio Democratic primaries, the 2008 campaign for the Democratic nomination for president became two campaigns. The first campaign was to see who would win most of the ten remaining presidential primaries. The second campaign was over who could gain the most support from the super- delegates, a special set of delegates to the Democratic National Conven- tion who were appointed rather than being selected in the caucuses and primaries. SUPERDELEGATES When the Democratic Party changed its rules in the early 1970s, it endeavored to make the Democratic National Convention a more inclu- sive event. States were required to select more women, young people, and minorities as delegates to the convention. The new rules worked quite well, and the group image of the delegates that went out to the nation on television became noticeably more diverse. By the early 1980s, however, one group was conspicuously missing at the national convention. That was party elected officials, such as state governors, members of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, etc. Although a number of women and minorities held major elected offices throughout the nation, it was still true that most elected officials were middle-aged white males. The party rules requiring more women, young people, and minorities at the national convention were, in effect, excluding significant numbers of the party’s major holders of elected office. That was mainly because so many of these elected officials were men, were well-along in their careers, and were not members of a minor- ity group.

    The Most Negative presidential election ever? 1988 • “One of the most accepted reasons for the loss was the withering personal and political attacks that Bush launched against Dukakis, causing some political analysts to call the 1988 campaign the most negative, issueless presidential campaign in US history.” — Boston Globe “Bush offered no clues about Cabinet contenders in his victory declaration Tuesday night, but he sought to soothe the national political wounds caused by one of the most negative presidential campaigns in recent history.” — Associated Press “By all indications, the nastiest Presidential race in memory will leave in its wake a problematic residue for whoever wins.” — New York Times 1996 • "The eruption of personal attacks offered a clear signal to voters that the coming presidential campaign may turn out to be one of the nastiest and most negative in history.” — Miami Herald.

  • 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.
