2008 CHINA Town Hall speaker Norm Ornstein
In this year of presidential and Congressional elections, developments in China, and America’s response to these developments, have a direct impact on the lives of just about everyone in the United States. CHINA Town Hall is a national day of programming designed to provide Americans across the United States and beyond with the opportunity to discuss these issues with leading experts.
The National Committee is pleased to present this program, which features a nationwide talk by noted political analyst Norman J. Ornstein of the American Enterprise Institute, followed by local presentations by on-site China specialists who will address topics of particular interest to the local community. Each program is cosponsored by the National Committee and a local organization(s). CHINA Town Hall is generously underwritten by the Starr Foundation.
We thank Mr. Ornstein and the American Enterprise Institute, our local partners and speakers, and the World Affairs Councils of America, all of which have helped to make this program such a success.
