We need to highlight the positive occurrences on our continent instead of famine, wars and institutionalized corruption. Despite what the world usually hears, there are great stories in Africa.

Princeton-Harvard is always a fiery matchup, with tremendous pride—and, on better days, an Ivy League title?...

Other items likely to be included are greatly expanded funding for science and technology research, calls for stem cell research and good government proposals that might highlight G.O.P. ethics problems. The value of these Democrat ideas is probably overstated; although the G.O.P.'s 10-ten point Contract with America in 1994 continues to get credit for helping Republicans take control of Congress, most voters hadn't heard of the document when they cast their ballots.
