September 14, 2004, 6:30pm prompt: June 8, 2004, 6:30pm: The Donald and Paul Smith Family Foundation presents a debate on Jobs, Growth, and Confidence: Which Candidate Has The Winning Economic Policy? Featuring Robert Kuttner Founder, The American Prospect, Business Week Columnist, Raymond J. Keating, Chief Economist, Small Business Survival Committee and Moderator Harvey Shapiro, Senior Contributing Editor, Institutional Investor. Although national attention has been focused on Iraq and terrorism, most U.S. Presidential elections come down to pocketbook issues. Economic performance has been mixed during this Bush Administration. An economic recovery appears to be underway, but the question of which candidate voters believe is most likely to accelerate economic growth and job creation could well decide the election. This event is free. Please RSVP on the Smith Family Foundation website.
