Not all regulations are created equal
January 31st, 2012
Government regulations administered at the federal level became a common practice in the late 19th century. The Industrial Revolution had transformed America from a rural nation dependent on agriculture to a thriving industrial powerhouse just as we are witnessing in China today.

Partisanship for Profit
January 30th, 2012
Partisanship is overwhelming our democracy. It is warping our politics, amplifying the power of special interests, damaging our country’s reputation, distracting us from our real competition overseas, dividing us into rival factions, and creating gridlock so that the people’s work does not get done.
John Adams once wrote, "There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble apprehension, is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution.”

As a pragmatic centrist, I’m not a partisan or ideological person. In fact, I’m quite the opposite. Centrists acknowledge that no party has a monopoly on good ideas.

It can be a Democratic proposal or a Republican proposal, a progressive idea or a conservative idea, a free market solution or a government program. As a centrist, all I care about is solutions, not politics.

The pre-1978 Chinese economy was averaging 6% growth per year; however, it was unstable and experienced repetitive crises. Its GDP was only a fraction of that of the United States. So China had a lot of room to grow. In addition, its enormous population which is now more than 1 billion people meant its potential economic output could easily outdo the American economy if it could get its act together. And that is exactly what China did.
What is the key to presidential success?
January 19th, 2012
The American presidency is a peculiar political institution. Unlike its counterparts throughout the world the American president is both head of state and head of his party. Unlike other political executives it is an institution in of itself, a separate branch of government. There are no comparable political offices throughout the world. This only heightens the mystery and mystic of the office. Throughout its history scholars have tried to erode that mystery by studying every aspect of the institution. Almost every possible characteristic, quality, and feature of the presidency and of its occupants have been studied.
