How can the nation make tough decisions given the our apparently fractious system?Join us for this special election night event withtwo prominent television commentators, as they discuss the 2010 midterm elections and their effect on American politics. The lecture and discussion will be held in the ’62 Center MainStage and be taped for excerpts to air on national television the next morning.

“There’s a lot of questions about America and the future of the two-party system and Joe and I get asked to speak about this all the time,” said Brzezinski. “We decided to get away from all of the chatter on election night and talk to America’s future leaders, so I immediately thought of my alma mater Williams.”

Joe Scarborough, a former United States Representative, has been discussed as a potential Presidential candidate in the 2016 election. Mika Brzezinski graduated from Williams in 1989, where she was a member of the Cross Country and Track & Field teams. To honor her success in the field of journalism, Williams awarded Mika a Bicentennial Medal in 2009.

This is no ordinary lecture, nor will it be a typical cable television show. Joe and Mika are coming to Williams specifically to hear thethoughts of our students on the issues that define today’s political discourse. We hope that you will be able to join us in one of the most exciting events at Williams this year as well as one of the moments in our national politics for years to come.
