Capitol Hill

An Emerging Democratic Majority?

At the next American Enterprise Debate, held on Capitol Hill, Ruy Teixeira, senior fellow at the Center for American Progress and the Century Foundation, will argue that America's demography is shifting in a direction that will permanently benefit the Democratic Party. AEI resident fellow and author of the Almanac of American Politics Michael Barone will counter that neither party has a natural majority in an age of open-field politics. Karlyn Bowman, senior fellow at AEI, will moderate.

Lunch will be served. Space is limited, so register early. Interns are welcome.
