Evan Shapiro: Television 2012: Can't We All Just Get Along?

Jared Bernstein: U.S. Manufacturing Competitiveness in Global Trade
While we continue to run large deficits in manufactured goods annually, there are lots of advanced economies with long records of positive net exports. If you think the difference is prices, you're thinking like an economist... and you're wrong.

But the future still depends on the housing market -- which is plummeting. READ MORE

Strange But True
The former U.S. Senator from Pennsylvania -- the only Republican candidate who hasn't yet ridden a surging poll -- is best known for his strident social conservatism: He once compared same-sex marriage to bestiality.
