Teresa Howard Dean
2016
(No one is certain why \"Howard\" appears in her name, but the biography with her papers suggests she might have been a widow when she wed Albert Dean.4) But in 1890, Dean, who had studied art at Lawrence College, shocked her family when she stopped painting to write a signed column, \"Snap Shots,\" for James W. Scott's editorial page in the Chicago Herald2 During her adventures writing \"Snap Shots,\" \"White Chips,\" and other newspaper columns from roughly 1890 until about 1931, Teresa Howard Dean told the stories of common folks from their perspectives.

Towards a standardization of campaign strategies dictated by the Obama ‘model’? The case of ‘American-style’ canvassing during the 2012 French presidential election campaign
2016
French electoral campaign teams now refer systematically to the Obama model. The 2008 US campaign marked a turning-point in the use made of the Web in politics and in campaign methods, particularly through the massive recruitment of supporters. This push to rationalise campaigning techniques was illustrated in France, during the 2012 presidential election campaign, with the door to door canvassing operation carried out by the Socialist Party (
Parti Socialiste
, PS). We shall see that in France it is not as easy to recruit volunteers to knock on doors as it is in the United States because these practices conflict with the party’s traditional ways of doing things. Reference to the foreign context was used to enlist support for the innovation and legitimise the objective of effectiveness.

THE POSSIBILITIES AND LIMITS OF POLICY LEADERSHIP FROM A SMALL STATE: VERMONT AND NEW HAMPSHIRE
2013
On a raw scale of factors for political influence, Vermont and New Hampshire would not seem to be prime candidates for leadership. Both are small population states with minimal diversity in their population mix, making them weak in potential representativeness and influence. Yet both states have supplied both policy leaders and policy innovation that has had a substantial impact. While both states have had a voice disproportionate to their size, the voice has not been unlimited in its power. Vermont's leadership and policy advantages have flowed from their combination of political culture, longevity and stability of representation, and the continuing presence these have provided in Congress and public policy dialogues. Vermont's political culture has been one that has favored an expansive definition of who is entitled to liberties, from its antislavery roots to its leadership in the efforts for marriage equality. The stability of Vermont's congressional representatives has also allowed them to have an impact beyond their small numbers.
