    EARLY-BIRD DISCOUNTS CONSERVATIVEAVAILABLE SUMMIT FOR 2018 WESTERN Principled Ideas from the Centennial Institute Publisher, Dr. Donald W. Sweeting Volume 10, Number 2 • February 2018 Editor, Jeff Hunt THE BATTLE FOR THE FUTURE IS ON honestly. I run into senators here and there, and I look at them OUR COLLEGE CAMPUSES and say, “I am so disappointed. What are you doing all day long?” Who else here worked, knocked on doors, and made Charlie Kirk, WCS17 phone calls so that they would repeal Obamacare? And then I have to sit here and listen to five senators who don’t have the backbone to do what they said they were going do, are you kidding me? For seven years we had to hear, “We’re going to repeal Obamacare, just give us the House.” We gave them the House. Then they said, “We need the Senate,” and we gave them the Senate. Then they said, “We need the White House.” Now they have all three chambers and we’re hearing nothing but excuses. What makes me the sickest is that the people who voted for a full repeal of Obamacare only did it because they knew Obama was going to veto it. They lied to us! They didn’t actually mean Charlie Kirk, speaking at the 2017 Western Conservative Summit. it. So excuse my candid, extemporaneous comments, but I’m just sick and tired of these people going to Washington, saying I come from Chicago, Illinois. I grew up twenty minutes down they’re going to do something, and not doing it.

Introduction: Romney’s Dilemma Mitt Romney woke up on the morning of September 11, 2012, with big hopes for this day – that he’d stop the slow slide of his campaign for the presidency. The political conventions were in his rear-view mirror, and the Republican nominee for the White House was trailing President Obama in most major polls. In an ABC News/Washington Post poll released at the start of the week, the former Massachusetts governor’s previous 1-point lead had flipped to a 6-point deficit.1 “Mr. Obama almost certainly had the more successful convention than Mr. Romney,” wrote Nate Silver, the polling guru and then-New York Times blogger.2 While the incumbent’s gathering in Charlotte was marked by party unity and rousing testimonials from Obama’s wife, Michelle, and former President Bill Clinton, Romney’s confab in Tampa had fallen flat.

Aggressive journalistic questioning in press conferences has increased over time (Clayman & Heritage, 2002; Clayman, Elliott, Heritage, & McDonald, 2004; Clayman, Elliott, Heritage, & McDonald, 2007), but recent scholarships shows that journalists present less aggressive questions when a foreign head of state is present (Banning & Billingsley, 2007).

  • Testing the Waters” and the Big Lie: How Prospective Presidential Candidates Evade Candidate Contribution Limits While the FEC Looks the Other Way
    215 E Street, NE Washington, DC 20002 tel (202) 736-2200 fax (202) 736-2222 www.campaignlegalcenter.org “Testing the Waters” and the Big Lie: How Prospective Presidential Candidates Evade Candidate Contribution Limits While the FEC Looks the Other Way Paul S. Ryan February 2015 Executive Summary With the 2014 midterm elections behind us, public attention has shifted to the 2016 presidential election. News stories appear daily about prospective 2016 presidential candidates’ repeated trips to Iowa and New Hampshire, extensive fundraising and campaign machine building. Yet none of the early frontrunners—former Governor Jeb Bush, Governor Scott Walker and more than a dozen other politicians—will even admit that they are “testing the waters” of a presidential campaign. Why is this? And how can it be? The “why” part is easy to explain. Federal law requires an individual who is “testing the waters” of a federal candidacy to pay for those activities with funds raised in compliance with the federal candidate contribution restrictions—no individual contributions above $2,700, no corporate or labor union funds. “Testing the waters” means activity “undertaken to determine whether the individual should become a candidate,” including, for example, travel to see if there is sufficient support for one’s candidacy. Prospective presidential candidates deny that they are “testing the waters” in order to evade the candidate contribution limits. The “how” part is more difficult to explain. Among the long list of nearly 20 prospective 2016 presidential candidates, only Senator Lindsey Graham and former Senator Jim Webb appear to be complying with the federal campaign finance law requirement that “testing the waters” activities be paid for with candidate-permissible funds.
