On a temperamental May evening, Sena- tor Hillary Rodham Clinton flew to Chicago on a political mission, arriving late at a downtown hotel where the main ballroom had reached its 500-person ca- pacity. “Excuse me, I’ve got the senator here,” said an aide, convincing a door- keeper to admit the actual beneficiary of all that attention: state senator Barack Obama, J.D. ’91, the Democratic candidate for the open Illinois seat in the U.S. Senate. Although it was the former First Lady who attracted the movie-star whistles, the usually soft-spoken Obama greeted the crowd’s cheers with a war whoop after his introduction onstage.

    Tales from the Edge of Space (February 2020) Les Johnson's February Newsletter Welcome to Les’s not-as-regular-as-he-would-like newsletter. In this and future issues, I’ll try to be informative about space or space-related topics, provide news about my latest books, magazines, or articles, and share my sometimes-off-the- wall-thoughts … Science Fact 2019 was a BIG year for solar sailing, with The Planetary Society and China launching test sails into space, NASA nearing completion of the Near-Earth Asteroid Scout sailcraft, and selecting a new solar Sail project called Solar Cruiser (formerly “Kon-Tiki”). The Planetary Society successfully launched and flew their LightSail-2 solar sailcraft in Earth orbit, demonstrating controlled deployment and successful navigation. The LightSail, measuring 32 square meters (~344 Square feet), successfully unfurled on June 23, 2019 and, as of this writing, is still in space – sail on! China’s Shenyang Institute of Automation (SIA) launched that country’s first solar sail, SIASail, in late 2019. Details are scant, but it appears that their sail was tested from a small satellite in Earth orbit and successfully completed its mission demonstration. Meanwhile, NASA is nearing completion of the Near-Earth Asteroid Scout mission which will use an 86 square meter (~925 square feet) solar sail to send a small spacecraft to survey an asteroid to which we might someday send people. The space agency also announced that another solar sail mission, the Solar Cruiser with its 1600 square meter (~17,000 square feet) sail, was selected for further study and is one of two mission candidates to fly in space by 2024.

Psychological Reflections on Barack Obama and John McCain: Assessing the Contours of a New Presidential Administration STANLEY A. RENSHON On 20 January 2009, either Barack Obama or John McCain will place his hand on a bible, swear to uphold and defend the Constitution, and become the forty-fourth president of the United States. The new president will immediately become responsible for the issues on which he campaigned, those that he ignored but for which he will nonetheless be held accountable, and all those unanticipated issues for which he will also be expected to de- vise solutions. Naturally, a new president and administration raise many questions. What will the successful candidate really be like as

    Steven Rauschenberg Biography Steve Rauschenberger, - Class of 1974 - b. August 29, 1956 From the EHS Yearbook, The Maroon: No Information. Early life Steve was born on August 29, 1956 in Elgin as one of six children to John and Shirley Rauschenberger. He attended Elgin High School where he was a National Merit Finalist. In 1978, he earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration from College of William & Mary in Virginia. In 1980, he purchased his family’s business, Rauschenberger Furniture Co., and went on to buy Ackemann Brothers Corp. in 1985. He became active with his children in Boy Scouts and served as a member of the Elgin Downtown Advisory Commission. 1992 Election In 1991, Republican Senator John Friedland chose not to run for re-election in the 33rd district. At that time, the 33rd included Streamwood and Bartlett in Cook County, Elgin, South Elgin, West Dundee, East Dundee, Carpentersville, Maple Park, Hampshire, Burlington, Sugar Grove and Campton Township in Kane County and Hinckley in DeKalb County. Rauschenberger ran for the seat, citing a change in the tax code that cost retailers millions by forcing them to change their accounting practices. In an upset, Rauschenberger defeated State Representative James Kirkland (also an Elgin High School Graduate) in the March primary. In May, businessman and lawyer Thom McNamee became the Democratic nominee. Rauschenberger ran on a platform of privatization of government services, opposition to tax hikes, an increase in earned income tax credits, opposition to the proposed Fox Valley Freeway and restoring the state's financial health. He served as a Republican member of the Illinois State Senate from 1993 to 2007.

Jackson Introduction The 2004 U.S. Senate race in Illinois may prove to be one of the most significant in American history. Perhaps not since the Senate election of 1858, when Stephen Douglas defeated Abraham Lincoln, has one Senate election had such an impact on the national leadership cadre. Although Lincoln lost the election, his speeches and debates with Douglas over slavery and the future of the Union ensured his place as a national leader of the young Republican Party and then as a leading contender for the Republican nomination in 1860 (Goodman, 2005).

    Interview with Jim Edgar # ISG-A-L-2009-019.25 Interview # 25: November 18, 2010 Interviewer: Mark DePue DePue: I want to get to the 2004 Senate campaign. As always, I would imagine, by 2003, people might be approaching you. Edgar: In late spring of 2003, Peter Fitzgerald surprised most people and said he wasn’t going to run for another term. Now, there had been concerns that he would have a hard time getting reelected. Part of it was he had problems with some of the party folks because he had a tendency to want to go out and pick fights. DePue: He was somewhat of a lone wolf as far as the… Edgar: Yes, I think that’s a good way to describe it. But I can’t say that he’d pick up a whole lot of support from the public in general. Senators aren’t that visible in Illinois. They go off to Washington, and they’re never seen again. Because Dick Durbin’s a leader, maybe you see him more on television, but even that—people just don’t think about senators like they think about the governor or the mayor. So even though he [Fitzgerald] had been there, he hadn’t built up all that much… You’d do his job approval; head-to-head with other possible Democrats, he didn’t run all that strong. He looked like he could have a tough time. I think he would have probably won, but no guarantee. Also, he had a young family, and that took time away from that family.
