In this week’s @ Brookings podcast, Brookings experts release a composite index of national and global trends for the first six months of President Obama’s term, lining them up against the same point in the five prior presidencies; Michael O’Hanlon discusses the significance to the American people of the Kurdish vote in Iraq; and the man on the street gives Obama pretty good grades after his first half-year in the Oval Office.
The Brookings Institution is committed to quality, independence, and impact.
We are supported by a diverse array of funders. In line with our values and policies, each Brookings publication represents the sole views of its author(s).
