DUNN: Thank you very much. 6 Applause ••• 7 GOVERNOR MOORE: Winfield, thank you so very much. I 8 would hope that there is beginning to jell here some feeling 9 as to really the challenge which was thrust at us as governors, 10 governors-elect, and former governors as we began this 11 conference, addressing ourselves to the strength of our party 12 and these challenges that are going to have to be responded to 13 in its immediate future. 14 I think that there is developing here, and as this 15 dialogue continues, pretty generally an answer to the country 16 as to the direction this party is going to take. This party 17 can't function and can't breathe and can't be administered 18 properly unless it is from the standpoint of the role of the 19 administrators of party functions as far as State chairmen are 20 concerned. 21 I asked a very effective State chairman if he would 22 join us and share briefly with us his thoughts as they related ac 28 138 to the influence of governors on the national party structure, 2 and particularly share with us his challenges in the State of 3 Kansas. 4 I would like Jack Ranson, the Chairman of the 5 Republican Party of Kansas and Executive Committee of the 6 State of Kansas/if he would come forth and share with us his 7 observations. 8 Jack. 9 ••• Applause .. 10 THE INFLUENCE OF GOVERNORS ON THE NATIONAL PARTY STRUCTURE II BY JACK RANSON, CHAIRMAN, REPUBLICAN 12 PARTY OF KANSAS • 13 MR. RANSON: Thank you, Chairman Moore. I I4 I Governors, members of governors' staffs, distinguished! IS guests, I would like to start out by congratulating Chairman I 16 Moore and his staff on this particular conference. I7 I have been associated with and an observant on 18 several Governors Conferences. I think that the concentration 19 on the political aspects of the Republican Party and the 20 political scene that we inherit after the 1976 elections is 21 extremely important and I congratulate this group on taking the 22 leadership. 139 ac 29 The subject I was asked to speak on is basically the 2 governors' role in the State party, the chairman's viewpoint 3 of that. I think maybe I should have made a deal with my 4 governor to see if he wouldn't absent himself while I made my 5 remarks. 6 I think the answer to that question, of what is the 7 role of the governor in the State party, is obvious. I think 8 it is almost the same answer as the answer to the question, 9 where does the 600-pound guerrilla sleep, which is of course IO wherever he wants. II The answer to the question as to the governor is I2 that his role is whatever he wants it to be. So I am probably 13 going to talk about my viewpoint as a chairman on what I think I4 it should be. I5 I would like to preface my remarks by saying I was I6 a chairman for two years before we had Governor Bennett's I7 election in 1974, and I have been a chairman now for two years I8 with the Governor and it is sort of like the difference between I9 rich and poor. 20 I much prefer being a chairman with the incumbent 2I Republican Governor. We have had a great relationship. Governo 22 Bennett has been totally supportive of the Republican Party in ac 30 140 Kan~as and a great help in continuing the building process that 2 is going to be necessary for a long, long time in the future. 3 I think that it is important that a governor under­ 4 stands the role of the party. And I think, conversely, the 5 party must understand the position of the governor regarding 6 the party. That is a nice generalization. 7 I would like to get into some specifics. As far 8 as the role of the party, I think it is pretty clear that, as 9 to challenging candidates and prospective candidates, the State 10 parties are the layer of the groundwork in our 24-month 11 ~ election cycle and the 18 months immediately following the 12 elections preparatory to the six months that is generally 13 devoted to the actual campaigns. 14 I think that, where you have an incumbent Republican 15 governor, the role of the party is not to be an apologist or a 16 spokesman for the governor's administration. I think that, in 17 addition, the State party is the principal agent for the recruit 18 ment of candidates where you do not have an incumbent Republican 19 •ffioebo14e~r. 20 As to the governor's role in relationship to that 21 State party, he is obviously the titular head of the party in 22 every State where there is a Republican governor. 141 ac 31 I agree with all of the remarks of Governor-elect 2 du Pont and Governor Dunn. I think it is very important that 3 the governor lead that State party and not dictate. 4 One of the speakers before me made a reference to 5 that, that our State tradition has been that governors handpick 6 State chairmen. In fact, the history of our State is that 7 governor nominees have picked our State chairmen in the past. 8 In recent years we have gotten away from that and 9 we now have a fairly open State committee election of the State 10 chairman. 11 I think it is important, not only to the governor "---- 12 but to the State chairman, that there be reasonable agreement 13 and a unity of thought as to who that chairman is going to be. 14 I think anybody who would take a State chairmanship 15 in a State with a Republican governor without the support of 16 that governor is probably not smart enough to be chairman. 17 I think it is very obvious that if he is going to get his job 18 done he must have the support of the governor. 19 In our case, in Kansas, that is exactly what has 20 happened. The governor is the statesman. He is the governor. 21 He is the head of the party, but it is only one of many roles 22 he plays. I believe that it is the most effective position '--· 142 ac 32 for him to be in, regarding the party and regarding the 2 constituency in the State. He is the major spokesman in Kansas 3 for the Republican Party. 4 Fortunately, Governor Bennett is a fine speaker. He 5 speaks out quite often on party matters. But I think it is 6 important that the party then understand that the governor 7 can't day by day be a party apologist, a party promoter, that 8 his obligation is to be governor of all the people, that he is 9 going to make some decisions and take some actions that are not 10 going to please the strong party people and that that is the 11 way it is and that is the way it has to be. 12 The governor is the best party builder of any office 13 holder that we have, either on the Federal or the State level • . 14 He is the best magnet for fund raising. In our party, we were 15 deeply in debt four years ago. We were $100,000 in debt. 16 The Kansas party, after the 1972 election, which we 17 lost by about 225,000 votes, were still $60,000 in debt when 18 Governor Bennett was elected. But with his support and with 19 his active participation, we were able to turn that around and 20 within 90 days, as a matter of fact, changed that $60,000 21 deficit into a $30,000 surplus, and we have stayed in the 22 black ever since. ac 33 143 1 I am happy to say that we stayed in the black follow­ 2 ing the 1976 election. Without his support and without his 3 active participation in that fund raising activity, that would 4 not have been possible. 5 More importantly than money, the governor is the key 6 recruiter of not only government personnel but of party 7 personnel.

  • Fellowship19 Booklet FINAL LIGHT
    | 0 - In Memoriam - Frieda Menco - Brommet Frieda Menco, a dear friend of Humanity in Action, passed away on Friday February 22. Frieda played a crucial role in the foundation and development of Humanity in Action The Netherlands. Frieda was a Holocaust survivor who insisted that we remember the past to be vigilant in the present. The horrors of her deportation and many years in Auschwitz never left her body or her mind. She grieved for her Jewish community that suffered and lost so much. She participated strongly in its revival and resilience after the war years ever mindful of its stark past. She was a journalist, public speaker, art collector and human rights activist. She was outspoken and strong. Year after year, the Fellows in the Dutch program went to her apartment, filled with beautiful paintings, sculptures, crafts and books, to converse with her about the war years and the challenges of present times. The dialogue was infused with past and present, pain and hope. And through those introductions, she became friends with so many Fellows. Frieda is dearly missed by the Humanity in Action community. The 2019 Amsterdam Fellowship is dedicated to the bravery & memory of Frieda | 1 | 2 Welcome Letter Welcome to the Netherlands! Our joint adventure is about to begin. This program booklet entails all the information you need to embark upon your Fellowship experience.

  • Franklin Roosevelt, the Democratic Party, and the Circular Letter of 1924
    A PARTY IN PERIL: FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT, THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, AND THE CIRCULAR LETTER OF 1924 Joseph D. Faykosh A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2016 Committee: Scott C. Martin, Advisor Ellen Gorsevski Graduate Faculty Representative Michael Brooks Douglas Forsyth Nicole Kalaf-Hughes © 2016 Joseph D. Faykosh All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Scott Martin, Advisor The Democratic Party suffered its worst electoral defeat in 1924, when compromise candidate John Davis survived a brutal convention in New York City only to be soundly defeated by incumbent President Calvin Coolidge. It was a demoralizing defeat for the party, and Franklin D. Roosevelt seized this fraught moment to take the reins as party leader and begin reforming the party to fit his vision. Roosevelt composed a “Circular Letter,” listing five fundamental principles that the Democratic Party should unite behind, and sent it to delegates and party leaders throughout the country. Whether he believed that the responses would simply endorse his suggestions and reorient him as party leader or not, he received a variety of feedback, demonstrating the deep fissures within the Democratic Party and a distinct lack of direction or shared vision. This dissertation focuses on the convergence of two fortunes: the Democratic Party, going through one of its darkest periods, and Franklin Roosevelt, recovering from his tragic illness and trying to reclaim his position in the party. My dissertation provides the most significant examination of the Franklin Roosevelt Circular Letter of 1924. Analyzing the Franklin Roosevelt Circular Letter of 1924 provides an opportunity to understand a party and politician in peril: the Democratic Party at its lowest moment since the Civil War; Franklin Roosevelt at a personal and political crossroads; and how Roosevelt’s Circular Letter and responses provided a way for both the party and his political career to return to prominence.

Beiden zijn middenvelder, maar Taylor is een ander type en bovendien minder ver in zijn ontwikkeling dan Gravenberch. Taylor is vooral een controleur, een passer. Hij kan ook scoren, getuige zijn vier goals voor Jong Ajax dit seizoen, waarvan twee strafschoppen. Bovendien is hij een leiderstype, iemand die graag teamgenoten neerzet en als aanvoerder Europees kampioen werd met Oranje Onder Na twee verloren seizoenen door een knieblessure en een enkelbreuk brak Myron Boadu vorig jaar door als de spits van AZ. Hij scoorde 14 keer in 24 eredivisiewedstrijden. Als invaller tegen Estland maakte hij bovendien zijn Oranjedebuut, met een doelpunt. Tot een vervolg in het Nederlands elftal kwam het nog niet. Als voornaamste slachtoffer van de corona-uitbraak bij AZ moest Boadu dit seizoen pas op de plaats maken. Het moet wel heel raar lopen wil Boadu volgend jaar geen eindtoernooi spelen. Als het niet met het Nederlands elftal is, dan wel met Jong Oranje. Als Joshua Zirkzee enige tijd na zijn overgang van de jeugd van Feyenoord naar Bayern München een illusie armer weer was vertrokken bij de Duitse recordkampioen, had niemand raar opgekeken.

  • By Nathan S. Crapo Thesis A
    A New Model: The Success of the Populist Radical Right in Western Europe An Honors Thesis (HONR 499) By Nathan S. Crapo Thesis Advisor Dr. E. Gene Frankland Ball State University Muncie, Indiana December 2019 Expected Date of Graduation December 2019 Abstract The Populist Radical Right (PRR) is the fastest growing party family in western Europe today. The PRR has seen sustained electoral success in major countries in Europe. The main purpose of this paper is to examine what has made the PRR successful in modern Europe. The Paper takes a supply-side focus on the success of the PRR. This paper will examine the countries of Sweden, France, and Austria and the PRR parties respective to each country to create a new model of success for the PRR in Europe. I found several reasons for failure of the PRR such as poor party organization, and leadership instability. However, I focused on the success of the PRR identifying policy positions, organization elements, and rhetorical reasons for the success of the PRR. The paper argues that while the Front National of France was seen as the “master frame” for the PRR, the Sweden Democrats provide the new model for success for the PRR. Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr. Gene Frankland for advising me through this project. His guidance and knowledge through this immense project were excellent. Through my years of college Dr. Frankland has been integral for the success I have been able to achieve, and his help through this project capped what he has done for me in the past three years.

  • Anti-Racist Parties and Progressive Politics in the Netherlands
    Anti-Racist Parties and Progressive Politics in the Netherlands Article by Floris Vermeulen, Laure Michon April 23, 2021 In the Netherlands, the growth of parties with platforms built around minority rights, diversity, and anti-racism is linked to the failure of traditional parties to be truly inclusive. To attract more voters with a migration background, parties like GroenLinks not only have to be more responsive to the experiences and wishes of their voters, they also must change their political cultures. “Since 1985, non-Dutch inhabitants who have lived legally in the Netherlands for five years or more have been able to vote in municipal elections. The main argument in favour of granting this group the right to vote was the expectation that it would promote integration. (…) In opposition to this plea for political participation was the fear of the ‘ethnic factor’ in politics. (…) Others feared that granting the right to vote would lead to the founding of an Islamic party and thus to a new – and potentially orthodox – religious movement.” (Tillie, Fennema, and van Heelsum, 2000) These words come from the introduction to The Ethnic Vote, published in 2000 by political scientist Jean Tillie. Tillie is describing the late 1970s political discussion on extending the right to vote. It is strange to read these words again today: Tillie cited the debate to show that the arguments mentioned were still valid in 2000. Now, 20 years further down the road, these words still resonate. The same alleged risks associated with the participation in politics by people with a migration background (defined by the Dutch statistics agency as anyone born abroad or with at least one foreign-born parent) are still being dredged up.
