Future Gazing

hotlineblog.nationaljournal.com — he Institute for America's Future is launching a print ad campaign challenging candidates and the media to "give us a debate worthy of a great nation in trouble," encouraging Americans to demand a real debate focused on "seven national crises that won’t wait." The first in a seven-week series of "op-ed" print ads will appear Tuesday facing the editorial page of The New York Times. Leaders of the Institute are urging people to take the ads to public meetings, church groups and civic associations. Other ads in the series will focus on global debt and financial crises, health care, public infrastructure, global warming, "increasing Robber Baron corruption" and the Iraq war and the "war on terror."
