After losing 7 of the last 8 contests (including Democrats Abroad), Clinton's got a big problem.

It's not a problem that she's somehow likely to lose the whole thing; it would still take a minor miracle for Bernie Sanders to pull off the come-from-behind victory this late in the primary season.

The problem is all about damage control, unity, and general election prospects of going home the winner.

She has to campaign to win, but also do it in a manner that doesn't embitter the entire following of Sanders.

2016 is shaping up to be the year of the “anti-establishment” candidate.

Though this author is still confused how a career politician or real estate mogul (two resumes deeply embedded within the establishment) fully deserve the “anti-establishment” label, it is abundantly clear that Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump are not the preferred candidates for their given parties.

In a unanimous 8-0 decision Monday, the Supreme Court upheld the constitutional principle of “one person, one vote,” meaning that Texas will continue to count the total population – rather than just the eligible voting population – in drawing their legislative districts.

For the first time in years, it looks as though California’s primary has a chance to affect the Republican presidential nomination. The primary does not usually offer much sway in the presidential nomination process for two main reasons.

Reason one: the June date. Primaries across the country occur between February and June of the election year, with the majority scheduled in March. This means that by the time California’s June vote rolls around, 88% of the Republican delegates have already gotten behind a candidate.

It's hard to believe, but Donald Trump finally said something I tend to agree wholeheartedly with -- that America is sitting on a financial time bomb waiting to explode.

With the strong possibility of having nominees from the two major parties who are largely unpalatable to a large percentage of the electorate, there is momentum building for serious challenges to the way presidential elections are handled.

Flawed Logic

I would like to believe that if Spock from Star Trek learned of our two-party system and how it functions, the first words out of his mouth would be, “how illogical.”  And if the good Dr. McCoy were to hear him say that, he would get angry and say “is that all you can say…how about ‘it’s damned illogical!!!’"

I have struggled for many years to understand the flawed logic of both parties.

In the tenth month of a budget impasse, one Illinois lawmaker is making news about how the state should respond to its inability to pass a budget.

Speaking to the Champaign News-Gazette, Illinois State Rep. Bill Mitchell is demanding Illinois state vehicles stop traveling on roads until a budget is passed.

During my Business Research and Quantitative Analysis course for my MBA five years ago, the topic of cellphones in research was a topic that came up many times -- a paradigm shift is happening in how we use technology and phones.

With the escalating disenfranchisement of voters, the possibility of a prominent third party candidate gaining national attention has become a popular topic. As one of the few parties with ballot access in all 50 states, the Libertarian Party is increasingly drawing the attention of independent voters. Those interested in learning more about the party were provided with the first ever nationally-televised Libertarian Party debate Friday night on Fox Business News.
