Our recent WACR speaker noted… “the outcome of congressional and presiden-
tial elections can often disrupt government decisions that require a long–term invest-
ment”. The coming midterm elections will include the selection of all 435 seats in the
House of representatives and 35 of 100 seats in the Senate will be contested. The out-
comes will have an impact on government’s decisions and actions. Our next World Af-
fairs speaker event is on November 10th – two days after the coming midterms. Our
guest speaker – Dr James Jay Carafano, will discuss how the results of the elections will
impact US foreign policy.

Dr Carafano is a leading expert on national security and foreign policy challenges,
and is an accomplished historian, prolific writer, and researcher. He is a graduate of the
US Military Academy at West Point, holds a master’s degree and doctorate from
Georgetown University and a master’s degree on strategy from the US Army War Col-
lege.

He is editor of a book series – The Changing Face of War, which examines how
emerging political, social, economic, and cultural trends affect the nature of armed con-
flict. As Heritage Foundation’s Vice President of Foreign and Defense Policy Studies,
his recent research focuses on developing the national security required to secure the
long–term interests of the United States – protecting the public, providing for economic
growth, and preserving civil liberties.
