  1. David Orentlicher thinks 'Two Presidents are Better Than One'

    He's a doctor, a lawyer, a university professor and a one-time politician (in the Indiana House). With all that education and real-life experience, it might be surprising that David Orentlicher would propose such an unlikely — some would say ridiculous — solution to end partisan gridlock in Washington: He wants to double the number of presidents. In his book, “Two Presidents Are Better Than One,” he argues that the winner-take-all president has way more power than intended by the founding fathers and that's the main reason for intense and growing toxic partisanship in the capital.

  2. Oval Office may be Floridian's home

    With each passing day, Jeb Bush looks more and more like a presidential candidate. At this stage, he's striking the obligatory, non-committal tone, but he's just come out with a book on immigration reform, is showing up on radio and TV talk shows, and...

  3. For GOP substance, deregulate

    WASHINGTON -- Because of the grotesquely swollen place the presidency now occupies in the nation's governance and consciousness, we are never not preoccupied with presidential campaigning. The Constitution's Framers would be appalled.

  6. Can anybody save the Republican Party?

    The year 2012 was a disaster for the Republican Party. They failed to regain control of the U.S. Senate. They lost eight seats in the House of Representatives. They didn't just lose the White House to Barack Obama, they got clobbered: losing the Electoral College, 332 to 206, and losing the popular vote by almost 5 million. They've lost the popular vote in five of the last six elections.

  7. Ignore the haters: NIU belongs in BCS

    Of all the insulting misconceptions spread since Northern Illinois qualified for the Orange Bowl, the most uninformed suggests the Huskies will use the unfair opinions of the Kirk Herbstreits of the college football world for motivation.

  8. Blue states' fiscal woes test Obama

    The electoral map, the demographics behind President Barack Obama's re-election and the high-end tax increases that were just wrung from the Republicans give Democrats reason to believe that long-term political trends are on their side in budget negotiations. This view, however, ignores what is happening at the state level.

  9. Inauguration 2013: For Mitt Romney, the day wasn't to be

    Had things gone his way, Mitt Romney would have raised his right hand Monday and sworn an oath to serve as the nation&rsquo;s 45<sup>th</sup> president. Instead, the vanquished Republican nominee spent the day at home in La Jolla, out of sight if not quite out of mind.

  11. Lessons for Both Parties From the 2012 Elections

    The 2012 U.S. elections, though they weren&rsquo;t seminal, revealed much about the nature of the body politic and the direction of American politics.

  12. Republicans' push to tilt elections will backfire
