i'm yuval levin of aei, and it's my pleasure to welcome you to this discussion of tim carney wonderful and important new book "family unfriendly: how ourur culture made raising kids much harder than it needs to be."m tim is a senior fellow. aei an economist at the "washington examiner." his work as a lot of us know focuses on family and community come on civil society, religion, an american politics. is been published widely beyond his columns in your times, wall street to become "washington post", the emetic and elsewhere. you see them on tv a lot. tim's work is unique. he describes broad social trends by beginning from the experience of real people. he thinks from the bottom up not from the top down and for that reason he has an understanding of people thrive and how people fail, what holds us together, what divides us here that is just deeply humane and sympathetic, even as it's always rooted in some moral fundamentals. his goal really is to prove that your grandmother is right. if you want to be happy, you should get married, you should have kids, you should go to church, you shoul

yuval levin 95%. 96% of congress gets right. it's true. people always seem to have a favorable view of their own member also hating congress simultaneously. i think the problem we confront very often now is that the way in which we begin process of electing congress, the candidate selection process at the very beginning has been turned over entirely. a set of party primaries that tends to prefer candidates who don't want to do the work of negotiating and bargaining. but want to do the work of performing for their most devoted voters, people who vote primaries, they're under 10% of both parties, and they're the people who at least a a politics of bargaining and negotiation and. we end up with candidates who are just not right for the job, quite frankly, very often, especially in districts, are less competitive. the primaries do all the work and the work they do is to fill congress with people who want to do a job other than the one the constitution wants them to do. and so i think in order to fix congress have to think about the institution

we are here to discuss yuval's new book and if i may say so it is his best to book yet american covenantsow the constitution unified in our nation" again. it is a book that i should say modest but politically ambitious. it proposes that the cure for many of our modern discontent in the united states can be found by recovering the wisdom of our existing constitution. it could be said to elaborate on the constitution siri of itself. and among the things this book reminds us of is that the unity that we speak of and e pluribus unum is not a once and done accomplishment but a constant achievement that needs to be renewed. it is pretty common for conservatives to suggestge we he forgotten some of the genius of our constitution. but at this point almost countercultural of the right no less than the left to suggest the constitution has not yet been exhausted. that is the bold proposal of this book i hope you'll join me and giving yuval around a welcome of applause as he elaborates on it. [applause] >> thank you very much. i appreciate that enormously. i think in my capacity as some kind of unoff

i have become really interested in the idea especially yuval levin and david brooks, brilliant thinkers i've read and known for many years. they even talk especially in recent years, they both have understood the importance of moral formation constrained, training, mentorship and then putting those two reminded me we are also have to really give a strong nod approval to james hunter who pointed, who is really on this case back in the '90s that you have to have a rich thick moral matrix within which that people develop if you don't you get very bad results. so that i think brings us back to the victim that he didn't understand that was when i first read it but i think it makes a lot more sense now. so that's my presentation. that some new stuff, , the beginning of the discussion. let's talk. thank you.
