 Center for the Study of Politics and Governance
 

What Are Americans Looking For?

 

Cosponsored with UN Foundation Better World Fund


Panelists:

  • Charlie Cook, Editor and Publisher of The Cook Political Report and Political Analyst for the
    National Journal Group
  • Andrew Kohut, President, Pew Research Center
  • Bill McInturff, Co-Founder, Public Opinion Strategies
  • Moderator: E.J. Dionne, Jr., Columnist, Washington Post and Senior Fellow, Brookings Institution


Summary:
Modertor E.J. Dionne and pollsters Charlie Cook, Andrew Kohut, and Bill McInturff consider what Americans want in their next president from a statistical point-of-view. The panel considers how issues of John McCain's age, Barack Obama's inexperience, an uncertain world, and high energy costs move public opinion at both ends of the political spectrum and in middle America.
