Introduction
The fourth issue of the The Forum takes up debates on several fronts: the upcoming presidential nomination race for the Democrats, political tactics and long range goals of the Bush administration, reflections and responses to 9/11, and a range of issues related to the California recall election. We encourage readers to write responses to these articles, which will be published alongside commentary. Please take this opportunity to provide your perspective on these issues in short or long form.
