There board is big and is a hodgepodge of billionaires, and ethnicities with varying POVs. I suspect Hartzell’s major task would be to elevate SMU’s academic profile (see Emory). He at least won’t have to talk out of both sides of his mouth about DEI. Given the political climate in Texas, his move is completely understandable.
Exceptional people should be able to create an exceptional health care system for its people. It remains to be seen if the negative impacts of Medicare for all outweigh the positives.
The current health care system and the rising costs associated with it are not sustainable long term. If Americans have been advocating for a structural change since the 60’s why don’t we have it?

So true. There nothing unusual about the margin of defeat in the playoff era, since postseason games have never really been close The average score of a CFP game from the four-team era was 40-21. The average BCS Championship: 33-18. The NFL doesn’t redesign playoffs because the NFC West champ doesn’t belong in the minds of some. The faux outrage from the media cartels is nauseating.
So is Dinesh DSouza’s son-in-law:

So, in Trump’s America one should decry the murder of a healthcare company CEO, but celebrate choking the life out of a homeless mentally ill person on a train?
As part of ABC News’ complete and total surrender to Trump, George Stephanopoulos must give Trump a million dollars of his own money. Anybody who thinks this is not a dangerous path for us to follow, is not seeing the bigger picture.
I disagree. By any objective measure, both of the women who led the Democratic ticket were more qualified than the man they against. America has made it abundantly clear that is not ready to elect a woman in general and a black woman in particular. Gavin Newsome could have run on the exact same ticket with the same policy platform and messaging, and would have defeated Trump.
At one of his rallies, Trump told his people that he really didn’t care about them, that he just wanted their votes. You can’t be more disrespectful and still have dumb ass people support you, unless of course all you’re irrationally concerned about the dispossession of white people.
I’ll admit to be surprised at the sheer number of post election autopsies that blame ignorance of policy positions and Democratic malfeasance in messaging for Trump’s win.
Really?
If we want to keep it real, there are other reasons why dominant culture voters opted for Trump:
