  • The Offbeat Off Year
    OFFBEAT OFF YEAR BY DOTTY LYNCH, SENIOR POLITICAL EDITOR, CBS NEWS Aunt Gertrude, my 97-year-old aunt in Marlboro, Massachusetts who usually doesn’t skip a beat, looked surprised when I said I was really busy this year on the election. “Oh no, that’s not coming up already, is it,” she asked. At first I thought she was starting to slip. Then I realized that I felt the same way. It seems like we were just counting chads in Florida yesterday. And then September 11 happened and our gyroscopes went out of whack. Campaign 2002 is being fought under the old rules in a world that is very different from the one where those rules made some sense. Democratic campaign consultants say, for the most part, that September 11 hasn’t affected their strategies - and they point to their victories in the 2001 gubernatorial races in Virginia and New Jersey as shining examples of why September 11 shouldn’t matter this year when it didn’t affect races in November 2001. Republican consultants say much the same thing about their campaigns on a micro- level, but the White House has believed for the past year that the national unity which followed the terrorist attacks would work in their favor and give George Bush and the Republicans incredible political capital to spend on the mid-term elections, especially on recapturing the Senate. Karl Rove, the Bush White House political sage, got roundly criticized last winter for suggesting what every political operative knows to be true, that in the aftermath of September 11, the war on terrorism would be a great political asset for the GOP.

  • Reprinted Here Is a Remarkable Tribute Written by Irishman Kevin Myers About Canada's Record of Quiet Valour in Wartime
    Reprinted here is a remarkable tribute written by Irishman Kevin Myers about Canada's record of quiet valour in wartime. This article appeared in the April 21, 2002 edition of the Sunday Telegraph, one of Britain's largest circulation newspapers and in Canada's National Post on April 26, 2002. Salute to a brave and modest nation - Kevin Myers, 'The Sunday Telegraph', LONDON: Until the deaths of Canadian soldiers killed in Afghanistan , probably almost no one outside their home country had been aware that Canadian troops are deployed in the region. And as always, Canada will bury its dead, just as the rest of the world, as always will forget its sacrifice, just as it always forgets nearly everything Canada ever does.. It seems that Canada's historic mission is to come to the selfless aid both of its friends and of complete strangers, and then, once the crisis is over, to be well and truly ignored. Canada is the perpetual wallflower that stands on the edge of the hall, waiting for someone to come and ask her for a dance. A fire breaks out, she risks life and limb to rescue her fellow dance-goers, and suffers serious injuries. But when the hall is repaired and the dancing resumes, there is Canada, the wallflower still, while those she once helped glamorously cavort across the floor, blithely neglecting her yet again. That is the price Canada pays for sharing the North American continent with the United States, and for being a selfless friend of Britain in two global conflicts. For much of the 20th century, Canada was torn in two different directions: It seemed to be a part of the old world, yet had an address in the new one, and that divided identity ensured that it never fully got the gratitude it deserved.

Children begin their consumer journey in infancy. And they certainly deserve consideration as consumers at that time. – James U. McNeal | Pioneering Youth Marketer [TITLE SCREEN] Consuming Kids: The Commercialization of Childhood NARRATOR: Not since the end of World War II, at the height of the baby boom, have there been so many kids in our midst. There are now more than 52 million kids under 12 in all in the United States – the biggest burst in the U.S. youth population in half a century. And for American business, these kids have come to represent the ultimate prize: an unprecedented, powerful and elusive new demographic to be cut up and captured at all costs. There is no doubt that marketers have their sights on kids because of their increasing buying power – the amount of money they now spend on everything from clothes to music to electronics, totaling some 40 billion dollars every year. But perhaps the bigger reason for marketers’ interest in kids may be the amount of adult spending that American kids under 12 now directly influence – an astronomical 700 billion dollars a year, roughly the equivalent of the combined economies of the world’s 115 poorest countries. DAVID WALSH: One economic impact of children is the money that they themselves spend – the money that they get from their parents or grandparents, the money that they get as allowance; when they get older, the money that they earn themselves.

    ----~------------------------ - This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu REMARKS OF SENATOR BOB DOLE INTERNATIONAL PLATFORM ASSOCIATION MAYFLOWER HOTEL, WASHINGTON, D.c. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 7, 1985 THANKS VERY MUCH, DAN, FOR THAT GENEROUS INTRODUCTION. LET ME BEGIN BY EXPRESSING MY GRATITUDE FOR THIS AWARD. BEFORE I CAME OVER HERE, I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH INTO THEODORE ROOSEVELT'S CAREER, ESPECIALLY AS A PLATFORM ORATOR. FOR INSTANCE, WHEN HE WAS SHOT IN THE CHEST DURING THE 1912 BULL MOOSE CAMPAIGN, HE INSISTED ON DELIVERING A TWO-HOUR SPEECH BEFORE GOING TO THE HOSPITAL. AFTERWARDS, THE DOCTORS FOUND THAT IT WAS THE FOLDED UP MANUSCRIPT -- ABOUT 80 PAGES LONG -- WHICH SLOWED THE BULLET BEFORE IT COULD DO MORTAL DAMAGE. SO THERE YOU HAVE AT LEAST ONE EXAMPLE OF WHERE LONGWINDEDNESS SAVED SOMEONE'S LIFE. FROM MY OWN EXPERIENCE, IT'S MORE LIKELY TO SHORTEN LIFE. Page 1 of 58 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu - 2 - WHY DO WE REMEMBER ROOSEVELT WITH SO MUCH AFFECTION? CERTAINLY, FEW MEN IN THE HISTORY OF THE REPUBLIC EVER ENJOYED THEIR TIME IN POWER MORE. FEW GAVE OFF A MORE EFFORTLESS IMPRESSION OF COMMAND. FEW CONVEYED WITH SUCH ELOQUENCE THE COMBINATION OF PERSONAL VALUES AND A NATIONAL VISION. IT WAS, AFTER ALL, THEODORE ROOSEVELT WHO INSISTED ON THE PRESIDENCY AS THE GREAT "BULLY PULPIT" OF POPULAR DEMOCRACY. AND FEW MEN, BEFORE OR SINCE, HAVE OCCUPIED THAT PULPIT WITH SUCH GUSTO. AS A REPUBLICAN, I ALSO THINK OF ROOSEVELT AS, IN MANY WAYS, THE FATHER OF MY PARTY IN THE 20TH CENTURY.
