As in most presidential election years, noisy battles have been raging as the nation's political armies gear up for what promises to be an even nois...
The inconvenient truth about being the first Black president is the Black part. It seems America wants all of the credit for electing a man of color to the Oval Office but wants no part of the reality that race still matters in America.
It has just been reported that Rep. Michele Bachmann recently became a citizen of Switzerland (based on her husband's Swiss descent). This is wrong on so many levels. American citizens should not have any other citizenship.
While the Veepstakes speculation ensues, planning for a presidential transition and a Romney Cabinet will commence. Who might President Romney choose for his foreign policy team?

The Republican nominating season was good entertainment, but much less competitive than many had hoped. By the end of the first week of April, Mitt R...
It turns out that the presidential campaign staffers have it completely, one hundred and eighty degrees wrong when it comes to science. Overwhelming majorities of American voters want the candidates to debate the big science issues facing the country.
Santorum and others ask, "What would Jesus do?" to guide them, but no candidate asks, "What would the Holy Spirit do?"
If you don't know the difference between a socialite and socialist, you are a prime candidate for the U.S. Republican debate team.
The Republican myth of smaller government is nothing but a hypocritical talking point.
