The tale of one city

By Donna Brazile
Jan 2, 2014 5:00 AM - Columnist Donna Brazile: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." So goes the first sentence in "A Tale of Two Cities." It applies to us now. Except, 2013 was the tale of two old dysfunctional political parties in one city, Washington, D.C.
Losing today for the unknown

By Donna Brazile
Dec 25, 2013 5:00 AM - Columnist Donna Brazile: We are losing the present, overlooking things happening right where we live, eat, pray and work.
We'll be better off with ACA than without it

By Donna Brazile
Nov 19, 2013 5:00 AM - Columnist Donna Brazile: President Obama understands why people are frustrated. And now he must take the lead to fix it. And yes, keep his promise and work harder to ensure his policies work to help Americans grow, prosper and stay healthy in the process.
Amid chaos, listen to the songs of hope

By Donna Brazile
Nov 7, 2013 5:00 AM - Columnist Donna Brazile: Of course there are problems with Obamacare's rollout. All beginnings are difficult. But there are governors -- governors like Republican John Kasich of Ohio and Democrat Steve Beshear of Kentucky -- who recognize that health care can't wait.
Ever so small signs this insanity won't happen again

By Donna Brazile
Oct 20, 2013 5:00 AM - Columnist Donna Brazile: Let's hope the insanity -- hers and the nation's -- was temporary. After all, when elected officials -- in this case, a handful of House Republicans and a few members of the U.S. Senate -- have a political breakdown, it drives the people nuts.
A 'people's contest' for fair opportunity

By Donna Brazile
Aug 9, 2013 5:00 AM - Columnist Donna Brazile: With the Civil War raging, Abraham Lincoln addressed the U.S. Congress on July 4, 1861, and talked about the stakes involved: "This is essentially a people's contest." Almost exactly 152 years later, we're having the same struggle. A "people's contest" is under way across our land to see that the government provides a fair opportunity for all in bettering their lives. It's a contest we're losing.
So much about our rights can change in just a week

By Donna Brazile
Jul 7, 2013 5:00 AM - Columnist Donna Brazile: The Supreme Court resolved four blockbuster cases -- and each one raised the same fundamental questions. To what extent do minorities share in the "inalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness"? How far does the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment extend?

Jun 16, 2013 7:50 AM - A number of libertarians and conservative populists have found data collection by the National Security Agency to be the final confirmation of their worst fears about Barack Obama and modern government. It is an attempt, according to Ron Paul, to "deliberately destroy the Constitution."
Snowden: all-seeing, or myopic?

By Donna Brazile
Jun 16, 2013 7:44 AM - Edward Snowden, the youthful information technician who leaked our nation's top-secret cyber-spy program, has made his mark on history. I suspect his "moment of fame" will last more than 15 minutes. And after all the debate about what he did, history will have to decide if it's really a moment of infamy.
People who help make America strong

By Donna Brazile
May 14, 2013 2:00 AM - Columnist Donna Brazile: American character. We need people of good character -- regardless of politics or profession. I'm proud of Charles Ramsey.
