  • WHY COMPETITION in the POLITICS INDUSTRY IS FAILING AMERICA a Strategy for Reinvigorating Our Democracy
    SEPTEMBER 2017 WHY COMPETITION IN THE POLITICS INDUSTRY IS FAILING AMERICA A strategy for reinvigorating our democracy Katherine M. Gehl and Michael E. Porter ABOUT THE AUTHORS Katherine M. Gehl, a business leader and former CEO with experience in government, began, in the last decade, to participate actively in politics—first in traditional partisan politics. As she deepened her understanding of how politics actually worked—and didn’t work—for the public interest, she realized that even the best candidates and elected officials were severely limited by a dysfunctional system, and that the political system was the single greatest challenge facing our country. She turned her focus to political system reform and innovation and has made this her mission. Michael E. Porter, an expert on competition and strategy in industries and nations, encountered politics in trying to advise governments and advocate sensible and proven reforms. As co-chair of the multiyear, non-partisan U.S. Competitiveness Project at Harvard Business School over the past five years, it became clear to him that the political system was actually the major constraint in America’s inability to restore economic prosperity and address many of the other problems our nation faces. Working with Katherine to understand the root causes of the failure of political competition, and what to do about it, has become an obsession. DISCLOSURE This work was funded by Harvard Business School, including the Institute for Strategy and Competitiveness and the Division of Research and Faculty Development. No external funding was received. Katherine and Michael are both involved in supporting the work they advocate in this report.

    B R E T T O N W OODS R ESEARCH , LLC August 3, 2016 Will Paul Ryan Adapt? In its nomination of Donald Trump, the electorate has delivered a powerful, historic message for policy change to the Republican Party’s leadership. Out of 17 candidates, Trump emerged with the most votes of any GOP nominee ever – 14 million. His political rise has shattered old party orthodoxies on Free Trade, hawkish foreign policy, open borders and austerity. Of course, Paul Ryan remains the ersatz champion for those orthodoxies, having championed their policies as Congressman, Mitt Romney’s running mate, and now Speaker of the House. Instead of adapting, Ryan is digging in his heels. On Monday, in the midst of an August 9 primary contest in his Janesville district against pro-Trump millionaire Paul Nehlen, Ryan spoke at a Koch Brothers retreat in Colorado arguing he and like-minded conservatives were in a fight to “retake the soul of our own party.” While he blasted Trump’s trade policy platform, he implied his mission and purpose was to try to give the Republican Party moral ballast in this election cycle. Ryan received a standing ovation after his remarks from the 400 GOP donors in attendance. The policy animus between Team Trump and Team Ryan is unmistakable. Ryan has almost never challenged the mainstream media to defend Trump from criticism, and he’s arguably participated in the pile-ons – with the Khizr Khan controversy being the latest one. On Monday night, Trump tweeted praise for Nehlen after Ryan tweaked Trump for going after Khan.
