Join INFORUM and Peter Scoblic for a discussion of how best to restore America’s place in the world. Hear the renowned author talk about the ramifications our current administration’s conservative ideology and the potential of each candidate in the 2008 presidential election to restore America’s image and ensure a brighter future.

Peter Scoblic, Executive Editor of The New Republic; Author, US vs. Them

Peter Scoblic believes that the past half-century has been marked by a conservatism that has undermined America's security. Scoblic's most recent book, US vs. Them, assesses the impact of the Bush administration's ideology on American foreign policy, which he believes poses a catastrophic threat to our future. He asks, how can we defend ourselves while restoring America's place in the world? How should our next president remedy the harm done? And which presidential candidate would do it best?
