David Axelrod and David French in Conversation
About the Event:
David Axelrod and David French don’t exactly come from the same starting place. Axelrod is a newspaperman-turned-campaign strategist who served as President Obama’s chief strategist. French is a constitutional litigator and former major in the United States Army Reserve who now writes an op-ed column for The New York Times. One is traditionally liberal, the other conservative. Join us as these two old friends share why they believe such labels don’t matter in our existential fight for democratic norms and a liberal order, along with a discussion of the most critical issues of the day.
This program is generously underwritten by the R. Scott Falk Family Fund.
