    SPEAKER 1: Please take your seats now, and join me in welcoming tonight's guests and director of the Institute of Politics, Mark D. Gearan. MARK GEARAN: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to tonight's forum. We have an extraordinary group of colleagues here to discuss campaign 2020. And it's about time we do that right here at the Institute of Politics. So we've put together a great panel of those-- some who have been former fellows here, and those who know politics well, Republicans and Democrats, strategists that will really animate tonight's discussion. We start with Robby Mook with Scott Jennings here. Scott is a former resident fellow, and Robby is a visiting fellow here. They both teamed up, and they teach a course here at the Kennedy School on their perspective from having run Hillary Clinton's campaign to a Republican strategist and close advisor to Majority Leader McConnell. Really provide a great perspective. Reggie Hubbard joins us here as a strategist, Democratic strategist and grassroots strategist with Move On, and having served in the Obama-Biden world, and Sanders. So we welcome you and Alice Stewart, who has long and deep experience in Republican politics, from Senator Santorum and Governor Romney and Michele Bachman and loads of good campaigns. And of course, many of them are known to you from their commentary on CNN as analysts. And the perfect person to moderate this is our own senior fellow here at the Institute of Politics, Dan Balz, who, of course, is the chief correspondent for the Washington Post, who has covered every campaign, presidential campaign for several, several cycles, and brings his deep experience to that.

The big news this week was Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton’s Super Tuesday victories, bringing them one step closer to the respective Republican and Democratic presidential nominations. We’ll get in to more detail on the Super Tuesday results in a minute, but first, we take a look at commentary on the campaign in general. On Monday – ahead of Super Tuesday – FiveThirtyEight says that if we want to understand what’s ‘roiling’ the 2016 election, then we should pay Oklahoma a visit, given the populist enthusiasm of many of its voters. Credit: DonkeyHotey (Flickr, CC-BY-SA-2.0) For many, a Trump/Clinton showdown for the general election now seems to be inevitable. Political Animal gives some early thoughts on how such a race might run, writing that Clinton will be more than happy to go after Trump hard, unlike his GOP primary challengers.

  • The Donald Trump-Rupert Murdoch Relationship in the United States
    The Donald Trump-Rupert Murdoch relationship in the United States When Donald Trump ran as a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, Rupert Murdoch was reported to be initially opposed to him, so the Wall Street Journal and the New York Post were too.1 However, Roger Ailes and Murdoch fell out because Ailes wanted to give more positive coverage to Trump on Fox News.2 Soon afterwards, however, Fox News turned more negative towards Trump.3 As Trump emerged as the inevitable winner of the race for the nomination, Murdoch’s attitude towards Trump appeared to shift, as did his US news outlets.4 Once Trump became the nominee, he and Rupert Murdoch effectively concluded an alliance of mutual benefit: Murdoch’s news outlets would help get Trump elected, and then Trump would use his powers as president in ways that supported Rupert Murdoch’s interests. An early signal of this coming together was Trump’s public attacks on the AT&T-Time Warner merger, 21st Century Fox having tried but failed to acquire Time Warner previously in 2014. Over the last year and a half, Fox News has been the major TV news supporter of Donald Trump. Its coverage has displayed extreme bias in his favour, offering fawning coverage of his actions and downplaying or rubbishing news stories damaging to him, while also leading attacks against Donald Trump’s opponent in the 2016 presidential election, Hillary Clinton. Ofcom itself ruled that several Sean Hannity programmes in August 2016 were so biased in favour of Donald Trump and against Hillary Clinton that they breached UK impartiality rules.5 During this period, Rupert Murdoch has been CEO of Fox News, in which position he is also 1 See e.g.

  • Governor Decision-Making: Expansion of Medicaid Under the Affordable Care Act
    Governor Decision-making: Expansion of Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act By Robin Flagg A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Health Services and Policy Analysis in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Ann C. Keller, Chair Professor William H. Dow Professor John Ellwood Professor Paul Pierson Fall 2014 Governor Decision-making: Expansion of Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act Copyright 2014 By Robin Flagg Abstract Governor Decision-making: Expansion of Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act By Robin Flagg Doctor of Philosophy in Health Services and Policy Analysis University of California, Berkeley Professor Ann C. Keller, Chair This is a study of factors that influence gubernatorial decision making. In particular, I ask why some governors decided to expand Medicaid under the Accountable Care Act (ACA) while others opted against it. Governors, like all chief executives, are subject to cross-pressures that make their jobs challenging. Budgetary pressures may differ from personal ideology and administrative infrastructures may not allow for decisive moves. Add to the equation political pressures – in particular the pressure to align with partisan positions – and a governor is faced with a myriad of opposing and interrelated factors, each requiring attention, when taking a particular position. The calculation required of a governor when deciding upon a salient issue is thus extremely complicated and nuanced. Although interesting in its own right, governor decision making is of additional significance because it may shed light on how the effects of increasing party strength and polarization are playing out at the state level.

  • Dark Knight's War on Terrorism
    The Dark Knight's War on Terrorism John Ip* I. INTRODUCTION Terrorism and counterterrorism have long been staple subjects of Hollywood films. This trend has only become more pronounced since the attacks of September 11, 2001, and the resulting increase in public concern and interest about these subjects.! In a short period of time, Hollywood action films and thrillers have come to reflect the cultural zeitgeist of the war on terrorism. 2 This essay discusses one of those films, Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight,3 as an allegorical story about post-9/11 counterterrorism. Being an allegory, the film is considerably subtler than legendary comic book creator Frank Miller's proposed story about Batman defending Gotham City from terrorist attacks by al Qaeda.4 Nevertheless, the parallels between the film's depiction of counterterrorism and the war on terrorism are unmistakable. While a blockbuster film is not the most obvious starting point for a discussion about the war on terrorism, it is nonetheless instructive to see what The Dark Knight, a piece of popular culture, has to say about law and justice in the context of post-9/11 terrorism and counterterrorism.5 Indeed, as scholars of law and popular culture such as Lawrence Friedman have argued, popular culture has something to tell us about society's norms: "In society, there are general ideas about right and wrong, about good and bad; these are templates out of which legal norms are cut, and they are also ingredients from which song- and script-writers craft their themes and plots."6 Faculty of Law, University of Auckland.

  • An Empirical Study of the Ideologies of Judges on the Unites States
    JUDGED BY THE COMPANY YOU KEEP: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF THE IDEOLOGIES OF JUDGES ON THE UNITED STATES COURTS OF APPEALS Corey Rayburn Yung* Abstract: Although there has been an explosion of empirical legal schol- arship about the federal judiciary, with a particular focus on judicial ide- ology, the question remains: how do we know what the ideology of a judge actually is? For federal courts below the U.S. Supreme Court, legal aca- demics and political scientists have offered only crude proxies to identify the ideologies of judges. This Article attempts to cure this deficiency in empirical research about the federal courts by introducing a new tech- nique for measuring the ideology of judges based upon judicial behavior in the U.S. courts of appeals. This study measures ideology, not by subjec- tively coding the ideological direction of case outcomes, but by determin- ing the degree to which federal appellate judges agree and disagree with their liberal and conservative colleagues at both the appellate and district court levels. Further, through regression analysis, several important find- ings related to the Ideology Scores emerge. First, the Ideology Scores in this Article offer substantial improvements in predicting civil rights case outcomes over the leading measures of ideology. Second, there were very different levels and heterogeneity of ideology among the judges on the studied circuits. Third, the data did not support the conventional wisdom that Presidents Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush appointed uniquely ideological judges. Fourth, in general judges appointed by Republican presidents were more ideological than those appointed by Democratic presidents.
