  • Quotes from Co-Signers of Garrett's Iran Letter to President
    QUOTES FROM CO-SIGNERS OF GARRETT’S IRAN LETTER TO PRESIDENT BUSH Walter Jones ● Authored A Letter With Democrat Rep. Keith Ellison Encouraging Negotiations With Iran In 2012, Jones Signed A Letter With Democrat Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN) Encouraging Negotiations With Iran. “We strongly encourage your Administration to pursue bilateral and multilateral engagement with Iran. While we acknowledge that progress will be difficult, we believe that robust, sustained diplomacy is the best option to resolve our serious concerns about Iran's nuclear program, and to prevent a costly war that would be devastating for the United States and our allies in the region.” (Walter B. Jones and Keith Ellison, Letter, 3/2/12) ● Extreme Minority Of House Members To Vote Against Additional Sanctions On Iran In 2012, The House Passed Additional Sanctions Against Iran's Energy, Shipping, and Insurance Sectors. “Both houses of Congress approved legislation on Wednesday that would significantly tighten sanctions against Iran's energy, shipping and insurance sectors. The bill is the latest attempt by Congress to starve Iran of the hard currency it needs to fund what most members agree is Iran's ongoing attempt to develop a nuclear weapons program.” (Pete Kasperowicz, “House, Senate Approve Tougher Sanctions Against Iran, Syria,” The Hill's Floor Action, 8/1/12) One Of Only Six House Members To Vote Against The 2012 Sanctions Bill. “The sanctions bill was approved in the form of a resolution making changes to prior legislation, H.R. 1905, on which the House and Senate agreed — it passed in an 421-6 vote, and was opposed by just five Republicans and one Democrat.

  • Giuliani, 9/11 and the 2008 Race
    ABC NEWS/WASHINGTON POST POLL: ‘08 ELECTION UPDATE EMBARGOED FOR RELEASE AFTER 11:35 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2007 Giuliani, 9/11 and the 2008 Race Six years after the terrorist attacks that vaulted him to national prominence, it’s unclear whether 9/11 will lift Rudy Giuliani all the way to the presidency: He remains hamstrung in the Republican base, and his overall support for his party’s nomination has slipped in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll. Giuliani does better with Republicans who are concerned about another major terrorist attack in this country, a legacy of his 9/11 performance. But among those less focused on terrorism, he’s in a dead heat against newcomer Fred Thompson. Thompson also challenges Giuliani among conservatives and evangelical white Protestants – base groups in the Republican constituency – while John McCain has stabilized after a decline in support. Giuliani still leads, but his support is down by nine points in this poll from his level in July. Indeed this is the first ABC/Post poll this cycle in which Giuliani had less than a double- digit lead over all his competitors: He now leads Thompson by nine points (and McCain by 10). Among Republicans and Republican-leaning independents, 28 percent support Giuliani, 19 percent Thompson, 18 percent McCain and 10 percent Mitt Romney. Other candidates remain in the low single digits. (There’s no significant difference among registered voters – and plenty of time to register.) ’08 Republican primary preferences Now July June April Feb Giuliani 28% 37 34 35 53 Thompson 19 15 13 10 NA McCain 18 16 20 22 23 Romney 10 8 10 10 5 The Democratic race, meanwhile, remains exceedingly stable; Hillary Clinton has led Barack Obama by 14 to 16 points in each ABC/Post poll since February, and still does.

  • OPINION of the CANDIDATES (Among Likely Democratic Primary Voters) Obama Clinton Edwards Favorable 60% 59% 45% Unfavorable 9 13 13 Undecided/ Don’T Know 29 27 42
    CBS NEWS POLL For release: December 19, 2007 6:30 P.M. EST SOUTH CAROLINA: THE DEMOCRATIC RACE December 13-17, 2007 • The South Carolina Democratic primary is a toss-up between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. • This is driven by race and a “reverse gender gap” -- Clinton leads with men, and Obama with women. Black women choose the black candidate, not the woman, voting for Obama by more than two to one. Black men are voting for him too, but by a smaller margin. • In the big endorsement battle, Bill Clinton holds more sway than Oprah Winfrey. • John Edwards, running third, is tops in one key attribute: he is seen as caring most about South Carolina. A TIGHT CONTEST Right now South Carolina is a toss-up between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. It is also a contest with large racial differences. Obama is winning the black vote handily, but among whites, Hillary Clinton wins, and John Edwards is second, with Obama third. Edwards’ support comes almost exclusively from whites. CHOICE FOR DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE (Among likely Democratic Primary Voters) All Whites Blacks Obama 35% 14% 52% Clinton 34 42 27 Edwards 13 27 2 There is a reverse gender gap: it is Obama leading among women, not Clinton, the female candidate. Clinton, in turn, leads among men. CHOICE FOR DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE (Among likely Democratic Primary Voters) All Men Women Obama 35% 30% 39% Clinton 34 38 31 Edwards 13 17 10 Much of the women's vote for Obama is driven by black women, who support him in strong numbers.

  • The Colbert Bump in Campaign Donations: More Truthful Than Truthy
    The Colbert Bump in Campaign Donations: More Truthful than Truthy James H. Fowler University of California, San Diego http://jhfowler.ucsd.edu [email protected] Forthcoming, PS: Political Science & Politics 41 (3): TBA (July 2008) Stephen Colbert, the host of Comedy Central’s The Colbert Report, claims that politicians who appear on his show will become more popular and are more likely to win elections. Although online discussions cite anecdotal evidence in support of his claim, it has never been scrutinized scientifically. In this article I use “facts” (sorry, Stephen) provided by the Federal Election Commission to create a matched control group of candidates who have never appeared on The Colbert Report. I then compare the personal campaign donations they receive to those received by candidates who have appeared on the program’s segment “Better Know a District.” The results show that Democratic candidates who appear on the Report receive a statistically significant “Colbert bump” in campaign donations, raising 44% more money in a 30-day period after appearing on the show. However, there is no evidence of a similar boost for Republicans. These results constitute the first scientific evidence of Stephen Colbert’s influence on political campaigns. Stephen Colbert hosts a comedy television program called The Colbert Report (the t at the end is silent – both of them!) in which he parodies personality-based news shows like “The O’Reilly Factor” that have become popular during the last 10 years. In an effort to make fun of these (usually conservative) personalities who engage in non-stop self-promotion, Colbert frequently trades outlandish claims for laughs.

  • Envisioning the Future: the 2008 Presidential Candidates' Health Reform Proposals
    ENVISIONING THE FUTURE: THE 2008 PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES’ HEALTH REFORM PROPOSALS Sara R. Collins and Jennifer L. Kriss The Commonwealth Fund January 2008 ABSTRACT: This report analyzes the health care proposals of eight Democratic and Republican 2008 presidential candidates—Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, Rudolph Giuliani, Mike Huckabee, Dennis Kucinich, John McCain, Barack Obama, and Mitt Romney. Their approaches to health insurance reform fall into three categories: 1) proposals that emphasize tax incentives for obtaining insurance through the individual market (Giuliani, Huckabee, McCain, Romney); 2) proposals that build on existing private and public group insurance with shared responsibility for financing coverage (Clinton, Edwards, Obama); and 3) proposals that aim to cover everyone through publicly sponsored insurance systems like Medicare (Kucinich). The report examines differences among the proposals, and evaluates them against key principles like affordability, provision of essential services, financial protection, streamlined administration, and fair financing.

  • Finding the Fourth Locale: Dichotomy Challenges in the Rhetoric of Barack Obama
    FINDING THE FOURTH LOCALE: DICHOTOMY CHALLENGES IN THE RHETORIC OF BARACK OBAMA A thesis presented to the faculty of the Graduate School of Western Carolina University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English. By Joseph Telegen Director: Dr. Beth Huber Associate Professor of English English Department Committee Members: Dr. Marsha Lee Baker, English Dr. Chandrika Balasubramanian, English April 2010 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I first thank my committee for their expert guidance and the materials in their excellent courses. Marsha Lee Baker introduced me to the works of Freire, Booth, and Michalinos Zembylas, all of whom helped to shape this thesis. She also has inspired much of the subject matter for my forthcoming academic work. Chandrika Balasubramanian encouraged my initial interest in Ebonics and helped me to understand the constantly transformative nature of language. Finally, Beth Huber, as a teacher and mentor, has not only expanded my horizons; she has played a critical role in my decision to pursue a career as a rhetorician, this when I was considering abandoning the academy altogether. I am immensely grateful to them all. I also thank my friends and family. To name but a few significant people: My mother’s constant, unwavering support is worthy of a thesis-length tribute, and cannot be done justice here. My father, meanwhile, inspired me through his intellectual integrity; the word “complexify” would not be defined in the text if it not for him. My older sister Rachel provided me with great advice and support during this project (her advice is always “solicited”).
