 1. George C. Herring on From Colony to Superpower: U. S. Foreign Relations Since 1776.  George C. Herring, author of From Colony to Superpower: U.S. Foreign Relations since 1776, tells John J. Miller, "If you look at big picture, I don't believe I exaggerate by calling [U.S. performance in foreign relations] a spectacular record of success."
 2. Bruce Herschensohn on Above Empyrean.  Bruce Herschensohn tells John J. Miller that he wrote Above Empyrean: A Novel of the Final Days of the War Against Islamist Terrorism "as an appeal — a plea that the politician and the voter takes this war as seriously as it is. Winning supersedes everything else.”
 3. Chip Mellor on The Dirty Dozen.  William "Chip” Mellor, co-author with Robert Levy of The Dirty Dozen: How Twelve Supreme Court Cases Radically Expanded Government and Eroded Freedom, tells John J. Miller that the twelve cases chosen “each play a critical and tragic roll in effectively amending the Constitution, to take away what the Founding Fathers intended.”
 4. Thomas Sowell on Applied Economics. Thomas Sowell, author of Applied Economics, 2nd Edition: Thinking Beyond Stage One doesn't think much of the $700 billion economic bailout: “It looked at first as a necessary evil, but as time goes on it looks more and more evil and less and less necessary…once that money has been created it becomes just another pot of the money that politcians can hand out hither and yon as they see fit.”
 5. Burton W. Folsom, Jr. on New Deal or Raw Deal: How FDR's Economic Legacy Has Damaged America.  Burton W. Folsom, Jr., author of New Deal or Raw Deal: How FDR's Economic Legacy Has Damaged America, tells John J. Miller, “Hardly anybody who writes on the New Deal mentions that Roosevelt raised taxes to the top marginal rate in 1935 to 79%.”
6. John Fund on Stealing Elections. Commenting on the lack of zeal in prosecuting cases of voter fraud, John Fund, author of Stealing Elections, says, “There's an inevitable cry that any time you're preventing voter fraud, you're actually dealing in voter suppression, dealing in trying to reduce the minority vote, and that kind of attack often deters [DAs] from pursuing these cases.”
