authorship

this version is entirely by CZ editor Richard Jensen, who wrote the Wiki article under "Rjensen". Richard Jensen 15:13, 12 May 2007 (CDT)

Outstanding

I am not certain what the process for this is, but this essay is a real jewel and clearly the tightly crafted product of a single author, even without the note above. It is hard for me to see how any additional contributions by others could improve it, and therefore I would like to nominate it as an authored piece (perhaps tied in someway into the more generic, multi-authored Republicanism entry.)

After making a few copy-editing changes and a couple of questions, I intend to nominate this article for approval as an authored piece.

One question for the author is - in the historiography section, is it possible to state briefly the positions of the Cambridge School and the St. Louis School?

My only other question is whether it would be possible for the author to write a brief concluding paragraph? Things just sort of stop currently, and while the discordant Bush-Kerry exchange is suitably and appropriately neutral, its location so near the end and the trivial partisan bickering it reminds us of sort of ends this wonderful piece on a sour note.

hey thanks! I'll work of the two very good suggestions. Richard Jensen 21:57, 11 September 2007 (CDT)

I agree this article is one of a kind. Makes me want to home school my kids ;-) I'd just let them read Richards work! --Matt Innis (Talk) 22:44, 11 September 2007 (CDT)

Roger, you are meaning as a signed article, as a subpaged article, right? Assuming yes, of which article would it be subpage?

Richard, for what its worth, I agree this is indeed a very interesting essay in that vein.
