The Public Record
Russell Dana Feingold is a prominent Democratic politician from Wisconsin, best known for his tenure as a U.S. Senator from 1993 to 2011.

I would hope that the Kamala will use this as an opportunity to raise the obvious point that this country is deeply infected with racial injustice.

This proposed constitutional amendment would change the scope of the First Amendment. I find nothing more sacred and treasured in our Nation's history than the First Amendment. It is the bedrock of the Bill of Rights. It has as its…
We welcome efforts by U.N. Special Envoy Mary Robinson and the U.S. administration to invest efforts in boosting private sector investment.
I know that there are some in our own country--it might be that Hillary Clinton would not agree with Presidential succession beyond the Constitution.
It was a failure and it caused great loss to the credibility of President Kabila who had made significant progress after 2006.
I think we ought to look at any modifications where people give specific problems with the mechanism.
