Election 2016: Navigating the Fault Lines
Candy Crowley, Evan Bayh, Eric Cantor, Jason Grumet, Chris Krueger
The analysis predicts a decisive Republican nomination for Donald Trump in Indiana, while the Democratic primary remains a statistical tie between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton driven by divergent spending strategies and structural superdelegate advantages. Underpinned by deep economic anxiety over stagnant wages and rising costs, the event frames the general election as a polarized referendum where Clinton faces a narrow path to victory in the Rust Belt and Trump must overcome significant headwinds with female voters. Expert assessments conclude that regardless of the winner, the presidency will face severe legislative gridlock, with the Supreme Court vacancy serving as the immediate and most critical policy priority for the incoming administration.

Dinner Panel - The Defining Issues Facing America
Evan Bayh, Bob Casey, Bob Corker, Mitch Daniels, Jessica Yellin
Prominent policymakers including Senators Bob Corker, Evan Bayh, and Bob Casey, alongside Governor Mitch Daniels, convened to address the looming $1.2 trillion sequestration and the urgent need for a structural "grand bargain" involving tax reform and entitlement changes. The panelists identified extreme political polarization and the upcoming Supreme Court decision on the Affordable Care Act as primary barriers to fiscal stability, while simultaneously analyzing the negative impact of Super PACs on the current election cycle. Despite skepticism regarding immediate legislative success in the "lame duck" session, the group agreed that sustained economic pressure and public frustration will likely compel a bipartisan solution within the next two years.
