When low-information voters put Barack Obama in the White House, they provided him with a type of credit card—drawn on the U.S. Treasury, otherwise known as taxpayers. Yet for the past seven years the press has been singularly uninterested in how honest and responsible Obama has been with that financial trust.

For all its pretense to want to join the developed countries as an economic equal, China has never learned the lesson that competition, transparency and the rule of law lay the foundation for prosperous economies — and good business relations.

Dsigruntled voters struggling to pay Obamacare’s exploding premiums or seeing their policies canceled could make the difference in Hillary Clinton's needed swing states.

The budget sequester had a short but meaningful life.  It successfully helped to control federal spending, which is why Democrats and many Republicans had to snuff it out.

Republican presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson is doing well in the polls despite the fact that he frequently comes up with half-thought-out policy proposals. The latest example is his health care reform plan.

Bernie Sanders claims to be a "democratic socialist." Fortunately the group Democratic Socialists of America can tell us what that means.

One can be forgiven for trying and failing, but not trying is the unforgivable sin.
