    When it Mattered Episode 8: Nina Totenberg Chitra Ragavan: Hello, and welcome to When It Mattered. I'm Chitra Ragavan. On this episode, we will be talking to Nina Totenberg, National Public Radio's award-winning legal affairs correspondent. Totenberg's coverage of the Supreme Court and legal affairs have won her widespread recognition and acclaim and earned many awards. She's often featured in Supreme Court documentaries, most recently in RBG. As Newsweek put it, quote, "The mainstays of NPR are Morning Edition and All Things Considered. But the créme del la créme is Nina Totenberg." Nina, welcome to the podcast. Nina Totenberg: It's my pleasure, Chitra. Chitra Ragavan: What was your path to becoming a reporter? Nina Totenberg: Well, when I was a girl, really a girl girl, I was a great fan of Nancy Drew, and Nancy could do everything. And, of course, she had no mother. Her mother was dead, so she didn't even have to compete for her father's affections. And she had a boyfriend, Ned, and a roadster, and she solved all kinds of mysteries and could do a jackknife dive. And I wanted to be Nancy Drew, and I thought the mystery part was something that I could do. And so I think that that made me, at first, interested in journalism. Nina Totenberg: And then later, when I was teenager, I read Theodore White's, The Making of a President, 1960, and I thought, "That's really what I want to do. I want to be ... " The elegant way of saying it is, "A witness to history." The inelegant way of saying it is, "I want to be a gossip," in the most regal sense.

  • An Empirical Examination of the Abortion Issue
    Yale Law & Policy Review Volume 1, Number 1, Fall 1982 ARTICLES Electoral Folklore: An Empirical Examination of the Abortion Issue Jeffrey W. Stempel* William D. Morris** For nearly a decade, the abortion issue has loomed large in American politics. City councilmen, state legislators, congressmen, presidents, and Supreme Court nominees are routinely asked their opinions on legalized abortion. Despite the controversy generated by pro-life and pro-choice' interest groups, little is known regarding the issue's impact upon voting behavior. This study seeks to enhance that knowledge by empirically examining congressional general elections in order to assess the impact of the abortion issue. We then review our finding that the abortion issue does not alter established voting patterns in these contests. I. The Abortion Issue.- A Pohtical War Without Casualty Figures During the past decade, abortion has been perhaps the most emo- tional and divisive issue in American politics. One national magazine, in its cover story devoted to the issue, described public division on the issue in Armageddon-like terms: * Law Clerk to Judge Raymond J. Broderick, Eastern District of Pennsylvania. B.A., University of Minnesota 1977; J.D., Yale Law School 1981. ** Chairman, Independent-Republican Party of Minnesota. B.A., Oakland University 1970; Ph.D., Carnegie-Mellon University 1975; Professor of Political Science, University of Minnesota, 1974-1981. 1. Semantics has comprised a major battle of the abortion controversy. Those opposing the Roe v. Wade, 340 U.S. 113 (1973), decision have termed themselves "pro-life", a designa- tion frowned upon by those favoring legalized abortion. Not surprisingly, this "pro-choice" group resents the implication that it opposes life.

    The Power of Ideas: How Intellectuals and the Ideologies They Market Can Realign American Politics Charlie Frindt Senior Thesis in Political Science April 22, 2019 Advisor: Stephen J. McGovern Acknowledgements Working on this thesis has been incredibly rewarding and insightful, even if the process itself has been long and arduous. Having the opportunity to work on a subject matter I am not only interested in but passionate about has made the many hours put into this project worthwhile. I would first like to thank my advisor, Steve McGovern, for all the help he has given me in writing this thesis. His guidance and encouragement as well as enthusiasm and interest in the subject I have chosen to explore has kept me motivated and focused over the course of the research and writing process. I would also like to thank Professor Zach Oberfield for introducing me to The Politics That Presidents Make by Stephen Skowronek which became the inspiration for this thesis even if it has diverged from the ideas presented in that book. Finally I would like to thank my friends at Haverford for their constant encouragement over the course of this process and my family for the love and support they have given me over the years. 2 Table of Contents I.

Dole Institute of Politics at the University of Kansas. We’re in the Washington [D.C.] office of the Investment Company Institute, where the senator is visiting as a member of the board, for a board meeting. Today is Wednesday, May 2, 2007, and I’m Brien Williams. Let’s start out with your recollection of your first encounter with Bob Dole. Armstrong: I haven’t the faintest idea, but I’m sure it was at some kind of political event. I suppose it was at a Lincoln Day Dinner or a fundraising event or something like that, because I knew Bob Dole. I’d met him. I didn’t know him well, but I was aware of him and had shaken his hand long before I came to Washington, so I’m sure it’s when I was in the state legislature in Colorado and he was coming to town for a Lincoln Day Dinner, a political event, campaigning for somebody. It was in that kind of a setting.
