Zbigniew Brzezinski

The Common Good hosted a very special Luncheon and Discussion with Former National Security Advisor and Statesman, Zbigniew Brzezinski, with an introduction by Mika Brzezinski,  Anchor of Morning Joe on MSNBC. Brzezinski  spoke expansively about his new book, Strategic Vision.

America, Brzezinski argues, must define and pursue a comprehensive and long-term a geopolitical vision, a vision that is responsive to the challenges of the changing historical context. His new book seeks to provide the strategic blueprint for that vision.

SENATOR MARIA CANTWELL

Senator Maria Cantwell paid a visit to The Common Good.  She sounded a bit frustrated with the lack of bipartisan progress on many of her issues, such as alternative energy and the environment, but she is working hard to get more accomplished in these areas.

BARNEY FRANK

His name is certainly apropos.  Congressman Barney Frank is candid and brilliant.  He spoke to The Common Good about reducing the deficit and building the economy. Frank says the biggest savings must come from reductions in defense spending.

TCG met with one of Congress’ most powerful and engaging leaders, Congressman Barney Frank,  on Tuesday afternoon, June 7 for a discussion over coffee. Frank, who was Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee before Republicans took control of the House of Representatives in 2008, spoke about implementation of the financial reform he helped shape and other topics.
