In the area of national security, events tend to trump planning. The new President and his or her staff must make rapid decisions, manage crises and guide U.S. relations with other states. Presidential campaigns are not well designed to provide the public with insights into the complex issue of national security. Come hear a panel of experts discuss these issues that effect the presidential campaign, the year 2009 and beyond.
Mr. Richard E. Friedman, President and Chair of the National Strategy Forum, Professor John Allen "Jay" Williams of Loyola-University Chicago, and Dr. Andrew F. Krepinevich, Jr., President of the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, will present an analysis of the leading presidential candidates' national security strategies and teams.
