Dear Reader,

The next few months are make-or-break for Mother Jones’ fundraising, and we need more online readers to pitch in than have been of late. In "It's Not a Crisis. This Is the New Normal," we take a level-headed look at the brutal economics of journalism, why investigative reporting like you get from us matters, and why we're optimistic we can grow our base of support in a big way—starting with hitting a huge $300,000 goal in just three weeks. Please learn more and donate if you can right now.

Clinton should give up being governor of the United States, which he ran for, and be president. Crime control and welfare reform and education are state and local problems. Do something about basic disorders in society, like debt and jobs.

Fire the Rhodes and Yale and Oxford scholars and everyone from Arkansas. You can’t run the country with a clique.

Get a new secretary of state instead of a direct descendant of John Foster Dulles by way of Dean Rusk and Cyrus Vance. It’s like a biblical succession. Democrats retreat to the foreign policy establishment and it goes nowhere.”
