David Hendrickson is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and is the Robert J. Fox Distinguished Service Professor of Political Science at Colorado College. His overriding philosophy is one of balance and moderation - something that he sees the Republicans as having lost sight of over the last generation. Of large concern to David is America’s current culture of debt and its long term impact. He sees McCain as an extension of the Bush presidency whereas Obama represents a fresh start for America, both at home and abroad.
