Here The American Conservative explains the Sanders revolution: Far from being a typical presidential candidate, Sanders has successfully transformed his campaign into a platform for challenging how the Democratic Party selects its nominees and does business during a presidential election year. Before Sanders announced his candidacy last spring, only the most inside-the-Beltway, inside-baseball politicos cared about […]
The Failure of Lethal Military Power
Daniel L. Davis, writing at National Interest, offers an effective counter-terrorism policy. Flatly stated, evidence confirms the employment of lethal military power that we have relied on for the past fifteen years has failed to protect America. It is important that the creators and practitioners of U.S. foreign policy at the State Department and the White […]
Will Britain Depart the EU?
The American Conservative’s Daniel Larison offers up some common sense: Whatever the result is on June 23, the U.S. should aim to maintain good relations with the U.K. If Britain votes to leave, the U.S. should do what it can within reason to help make the transition easier, and we should do so in recognition […]
Trump Won’t Lose Romney States
The American Conservative’s Daniel McCarthy explains how Trump Beats Clinton the Way He Beat Bush: The 2016 race pits a decades-old center-left establishment against a newly invigorated populist right. That populist right has already defeated the decades-old center-right establishment of the GOP. It has a fighting chance against Clinton, if Trump sticks to his issues […]
The Ritz Paris Is Back
Debbie and I loved the old Ritz Paris and, unfortunately, missed the re-opening of the new Ritz Paris by one day. The Telegraph has a neat new video (below) that will leave Ritz Paris fans drooling.

What I Learned in Paris Part I, May 2016
A Danube river cruise with the National Review gang preceded the spring trip Debbie and I took to France this year. We traveled from Bucharest, Hungary, to Slovakia and Vienna, Austria, before ending our trip in Germany and taking a flight to Charles de Gaulle (Paris) out of the excellent, courteous Munich airport. Earlier this […]
Hillary Clinton Down the Drain?
Former Bill Clinton political adviser Doug Schoen lays out a clear path to the Democratic nomination for Bernie Sanders. The battle for the Democratic nomination is far from over, media bias to the contrary. Hillary Clinton is simply not liked or trusted. It is as easy as that. Mr. Schoen lays out an excellent case […]
How Will the West Survive?
Pat Buchanan offers some obvious common sense, starting with Britain’s choice to depart the EU. At the turn of the century, in “The Death of the West,” Pat wrote, Europe has begun to die. The prognosis is grim. Between 2000 and 2050, world population will grow by more than three billion to over nine billion […]
Why I Support the American Conservative
Here The American Conservative’s Daniel Larison succinctly explains why both Daniel and Dick Young are such strong supporters of The Americans Conservative.
