Opinion - Is America’s birth rate about to start booming?
All of which raises the possibility of current stubbornly low birth rates being on the verge of a rise, away from the economically and culturally divided low-birth-rate society described in Charles Murray’s “Coming Apart,” and toward something suggested by Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again.”

Opinion - What Happens to the Democratic Party if Clinton Loses?
There's been lots of speculation about the fate of the Republican Party if (as most of the prognosticators expect and hope) Donald Trump loses. There's been less speculation, though recent polling suggests it may be in order, about the fate of the Democratic Party if Hillary Clinton loses.

US - Nationalism is not necessarily a bad thing
Google "Donald Trump" and "nationalism" and you'll get 1,990,000 results, the large percentage of which are, to judge from the top hits, negative. "Nationalism" is deemed to be bad stuff, maybe even akin to Nazism.

Obama, Rivals Duck the Entitlement Crisis
Some of society's most intractable problems come not from its failures but from its successes. Often you can't get a good thing without paying a bad price.

Gates' Verdict: Pentagon's Biggest Enemy Is Itself
Defense Secretary Robert Gates leaves office this month as widely respected as any public figure in America today, appreciated for his willingness to return to public service at a moment of high danger in Iraq and to faithfully serve presidents of both parties.

A Senator’s Shadow Family
EVEN in a city that celebrates unbridled ostentation, the sprawling estate at 139 Bassett Avenue in the seaside enclave of Mill Basin, Brooklyn, seems to redefine conspicuous consumption.

The Golden Age of Centrism Wasn't So Golden
Though many decry the current polarized atmosphere, the partisan overlap that existed in the mid-twentieth century was not as great as we make it out to be today. The "partisan muddle" of that time period was largely a result of the divide between the North and South over civil rights issues.

US - Va., N.J. Races Show Voters Changing Course
Elections held during the first year of a presidency tend to reject the president's party, as they did in 1993 and 2001 (and, as it turned out, 2009) in the Virginia and New Jersey governor's races. These results give us clues about where the nation's voters are headed; this election demonstrates that voters are looking to change direction this year.

One man can make a difference
One man can make a difference: that is the lesson of the life of Pope John Paul II. If someone had told you, 50 years ago, that the three men who would do the most to advance human freedom in the next half century were the parish priest of St. Florian's Church in Krakow, the military cadet who was the grandson of the last king of Spain and the star of the recent movie "Bedtime for Bonzo," you would not have believed him. But so it has been. History takes surprising turns. And it is often individual men and women, for good and for evil, who do the steering.
