Mitch McConnell's strategy in his debt ceiling initiative in mid 2011
07/13/2011
McConnell's twin goals of regaining Republican control of the Senate and preventing the re-election of Obama. How the debt ceiling plan he has offered fits in with this. His fears that a default on the U.S. debt could hurt Republicans as it did the last time this happened, when Clinton was re-elected. His plan would separate raising the debt ceiling limit from deficit reduction talks.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
