Dear Friends,
NDN has two timely public events on tap for this week, both over Zoom:
Today, March 1st 1pm ET – NDN Talks Ukraine with David Rothkopf - Please join us today for a special conversation with noted author, historian and commentator David Rothkopf. We will be talking about Russia's attack on Ukraine, and what it means for America in the months ahead. We will gather at 1pm ET this afternoon - RSVP here.
David's Bio - David Rothkopf is CEO of The Rothkopf Group, a media company that produces podcasts including Deep State Radio, hosted by Rothkopf. He was a senior official in the Clinton Administration, and author of many books including Running the World: The Inside Story of the National Security Council and the Architects of American Power, Superclass, Power, Inc., National Insecurity, Great Questions of Tomorrow, and Traitor: A History of Betraying America from Benedict Arnold to Donald Trump.
Fri, March 4th, 1230 pm ET – With Democrats Things Get Better – This Friday is the monthly showing of our signature presentation, With Democrats Things Get Better. It’s a 25-minute data filled journey through American politics since the Cold War ended and a new political age began. And what the data shows, not surprisingly, is that during this period when Democrats were in power the US had strong, sustained job and GDP growth, booming stock markets, rising incomes and wages; and when Republicans have come to power, we’ve had 3 consecutive recessions, two very severe, and debilitating deficits. The fundamental contrast between Democratic growth and progress versus GOP recession and decline that emerges from the presentation is very stark, and critical to understanding where we are in American politics today. You can sign up for the 1230 pm ET Zoom-based presentation here.
To prep for the presentation, you can learn more about the big arguments behind With Dems here and check out our recent work on selling the Biden Boom here. Perhaps the most remarkable stat from the deck – of the 42 million jobs created in the US since 1989, 40 million – 95% - have been created with Democrats in the White House.
Feel free to invite friends and colleagues to either event. They are free and open to all.
Best, Simon, Georgia and the rest of the NDN Team
