Political Event

On October 7^th, we held our Political Event, “The Economics of Our Next President” in the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice at the University of San Diego.  The auditorium provided the perfect atmosphere for our discussion. Our panel consisted of four phenomenal speakers including, Mr. Scott Peters, Council President City of San Diego District 1, Mrs. Mindy Fletcher, President of Arrow Advisers and former Press Secretary and Senior Advisor to the Bush Administration, Mr. Stephen J. Conroy, Ph.D., USD Associate Professor of Economics and Mr. Herb Morgan, Founder and Chief Investment Officer Efficient Market Advisors, LLC. 

Matt Garrett, was our moderator and led the discussion through items such as the Presidential candidates general position, the economic bailout, and what we can predict for the future if either candidate is elected.  While there was disagreement between the parties, all of the speakers held the utmost respect for one another and they were able to find common ground on several issues. The speakers enlightened the audience with both economic and political perspectives.  Hopefully the discussion will help them to choose the best candidate for them in the upcoming election.
