...latest polls indicate that Democrats Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama are running neck and neck in the Massachusetts primary. Unfortunately for those who are not signed up yet, the Commonwealth does not allow residents simultaneously to register and cast their vote on election day. Seven states have implemented some form of Election Day Registration (EDR), a policy that permits voters to register when they arrive at the polls. A bill that would allow EDR in Massachusetts is currently being considered in the State Senate. The policy is shown to increase voter turnout, especially among young people. In 2004, almost...
...slightly absurd experiment known as the 2008 Nevada caucuses, Hillary Rodham Clinton had a lot of the tactical disadvantages. Her main opponent for the Democratic presidential nomination, Barack Obama, could boast the coveted endorsement of the 60,000-member Culinary Workers union.

Obama, in turn, worked very hard to distance himself from any past or present affiliation with Muslims and Islam, citing the Bible in his speeches and emphasizing his personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Republicans, for their part, haven’t been much better. Formulaic prefaces...
...public persona hasn’t escaped the scrupulous nip-and-tuck required of all presidential hopefuls. It doesn’t help that her natural temperament is only slightly warmer than a New Hampshire winter; in a college letter, she perceptively defined herself as “Hillary Rodham, acknowledged agnostic intellectual liberal, emotional conservative.” But for a brief moment in a tacky coffee shop on the campaign trail, surrounded by 16 undecided women voters and 100 television cameras, Hillary’s glistening eyes offered a moment of revelation. Politics should be dynamic and complex...
