The London School of Economics and Political Science Presidential Rhetoric Justifying Healthcare Reform: Continuity, Change & the Contested American Moral Order and Social Imaginary from Truman to Obama Noam Schimmel A Thesis Submitted to the Department of Media and Communications of the London School of Economics for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, September 2013 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it.) The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgment is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior consent. I warrant that this authorization does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis is 98, 147 words. 2 Abstract The original contribution to knowledge of my thesis is a comparative historical analysis of the rhetoric used by four Democratic presidents to expand access to and affordability of healthcare. Specifically, the thesis situates Democratic presidential healthcare reform rhetoric in relation to opposing conservative Republican ideologies of limited government and prioritization of negative liberty and their increasing prominence in the post-Reagan era. It examines how the American moral order and social imaginary has evolved and how Democratic presidential healthcare reform rhetoric was both informed by and responded to it.

Comparative Perspectives on American Political Development
IN THIS ISSUE... Volume 19 Number 2 Spring/Summer 2009 Comparative Perspectives on American Political Development Richard Franklin Bensel Department of Government, Cornell University I write to you as the 19th president of the section, a section now mature enough to have spanned a generation. We, as the Jefferson Airplane once sang, “are no longer young.” But we are also not old. We are somewhere in between, neither idling at a crossroads nor hurtling down a freeway. The section has its share of challenges but seems to be in good shape. But this is not a “state of the section” essay. Instead, I write as one who, along with the rest of you, have watched Politics and History develop over the years. We have, as I will describe below, become a bit of a tribe but our tribalism has always been less developed than most of our peer sections. And this is all to the good. A tension lurks at the center of most In In this Issue academicIN life, a tension between the sociological imperative of a profession and the individualizing, creative spirit of scholarship.

Challenging Authority: How Ordinary People Change America (Polemics)
Challening_Pbk.qxd 6/16/08 12:09 PM Page 1 PIVEN HISTORY • POLITICS “Challenging Authority is like a Molotov cocktail in an elegant crystal decanter. Frances Fox Piven deploys metic- ulous reasoning and wide-ranging research to show that social change comes ultimately from the disruptive challenging actions of ordinary people—strikes, sit-ins, riots. Challenging Authority challenges all of us to re-think our notions of who makes history and how. It may be Piven’s best work yet.” —Barbara Ehrenreich, author of Nickel and Dimed challenging “Frances Fox Piven has done it again! With undiminished authority, she offers a sweeping examination of disruptive movements at key moments in American history, from the revolutionary period to the present. authority Her examination of the relations between disruption and electoral politics underscores an implicit criticism of both ‘radical’ visions and academic research that isolate social movements from politics. In their place, she reveals the intricate, contradictory, but ultimately democratizing impact of disrupting established insti- tutional routines. This penetrating analysis offers sage advice for those who are discouraged by the current HOW ORDINARY PEOPLE CHANGE AMERICA reversion of democracy in these times of imperial expansion and threats to civil liberties. Thirty-five years after the publication of her seminal Regulating the Poor, this is vintage Piven empowered with new insights.” —Sidney Tarrow, Cornell University “This quintessentially Piven-esque book eloquently traces how ordinary people, whose efforts to advance FRANCES FOX PIVEN their rights and interests are in normal times limited by our political system, have taken it upon themselves authority to correct injustices.

Partisanship, Dysfunction, and Racial Fears: the New Normal in Health Care Policy?
Health Care Reform at the State and National Level Partisanship, Dysfunction, and Racial Fears: The New Normal in Health Care Policy? James A. Morone Brown University Abstract Partisan politics snarled both the passage and the implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). This essay examines partisanship’seffects on health policy and asks whether the ACA experience was an exception or the new political normal. Partisanship itself has been essential for American democracy, but American institu- tions were not designed to handle its current form—ideologically pure, racially sorted, closely matched parties playing by “Gingrich rules” before a partisan media. The new partisanship injects three far-reaching changes into national health policy: an unprec- edented lack of closure, a decline in the traditional political arts of compromise and bargaining, and a failure to deﬁne and debate alternative health policies. We can get a better sense of how far partisanship reaches by turning to state health policies. The highly charged national debate has migrated into some of the states; others retain the traditional politics of compromise and problem solving. There are preliminary indi- cations that the difference lies in the dynamics of race and ethnicity. Keywords Affordable Care Act (ACA), partisanship, race Let me warn you in the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the spirit of party. The disorders and miseries which result . always distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration. —George Washington, “Farewell Address,” September 1796 If we are able to stop Obama on this, it will be his Waterloo. It will break him. —Senator Jim DeMint, July 2009 I thank Bradford H.

An Anatomy of 'Fake News'
AN ANATOMY OF ‘FAKE NEWS’ HISTORY, POPULISM, PARTISANSHIP, TECHNOLOGY, AND SOLUTIONS The 2018 John Breaux Symposium ABOUT THE 2018 JOHN BREAUX SYMPOSIUM The 2018 Breaux Symposium—An Anatomy of ‘Fake News’—was spon- sored by the Reilly Center for Media & Public Affairs at the Louisiana State University Manship School of Mass Communication and the Grad- uate School of Political Management (GSPM) at George Washington University. The event brought together scholars and news experts in the nation’s capital to discuss the pervasive problem of fake news, by focus- ing on 1) the historical antecedents, 2) anti-establishment populism, 3) the role of political parties and mediating institutions, 4) technological enablement and amelioration, and 5) solutions to these pressing issues. The annual Breaux Symposium was established in 2000 as a core pro- gram of the Reilly Center for Media & Public Affairs, which is part of the LSU Manship School of Mass Communication. The goal of the Breaux Symposium is to push the boundaries of debate around an aspect of me- dia, politics, and public policy. 2 THE 2018 JOHN BREAUX SYMPOSIUM The Reilly Center for Media & Public Affairs The Reilly Center for Media & Public Affairs is partnership-driven, -ac tion-oriented, and dedicated to exploring contemporary issues at the intersection of mass communication and public life. Its interdisciplinary approach draws together experts from diverse fields to advance research and dialogue. The intent is to inspire our communities to think deeply, broaden knowledge, develop solutions, and take action. Underlying the Center’s endeavors is to strengthen and advance the Manship School’s national and state leadership in media and politics.
