| With our
nation's unemployment rate still stubbornly close to post-World War II highs,
it's clear that government spending, tax policy tweaks and job programs alone
will not create all the new jobs Americans need. Rather than hoping for an
economic miracle, U.S. policymakers and corporate CEOs should take a page from
our economic history and build the |

| High-tech will help spur recovery |
| Friday, March 5, 2010 |
| When the networking giant Cisco recently experienced a 23
percent jump in quarterly profit and 8 percent gain in revenue, John Chambers,
the chairman and CEO, announced plans to hire as many as 3,000 workers —
despite an economy struggling to recover from the worst fiscal crisis since the
Great Depression.
Last week, Intel announced a $3.5 billion |

| Reaching for the Innovation Gold |
| Wednesday, February 17, 2010 |
| Every two years, the eyes of the world are
trained on the Olympics, with each participating nation hoping to take home the
gold. Put simply, the games are an awe-inspiring event and, for me, a time of
great national pride. This year, however, they are also a stark reminder of how
America has lost sight of its competitive drive -- and edge -- when it comes |

| State of the Union: Strong leadership needed for uncertain times |
| Tuesday, January 26, 2010 |
| Investing and innovating with an eye toward
benefiting from global markets will directly result in more dollars for jobs
today and tomorrow.

decidedly uncertain. What we need most at this time of uncertainty and
unease is the President’s strong leadership. Fortunately, |

| GARFIELD: High-tech hopes for Washington |
| Tuesday, January 12, 2010 |
| Despite an anguished labor market - the nation shed another 85,000 jobs
in December - U.S. leaders still seem mired in politics and hesitant to act
boldly to reverse our economy's deterioration.
High-tech companies understand the mounting pressures that are weighing down
American families, businesses and policymakers. However, these companies are

| Commonsense solutions for sustainable job growth |
| Tuesday, December 8, 2009 |
| President Obama’s administration
has established its adeptness at juggling and making mission critical decisions
on multiple priorities at the same time. What is less certain at this point is
whether the administration is prepared to make those tough calls that are
contrary to popular opinion but that are in the country’s best interest. The President’s |

| The Making of America’s Next Golden Age: Start With the Student Next Door |
| Tuesday, September 8, 2009 |
| In the next few days, over 50 million people-nearly one quarter of our nation's population-will be streaming onto campuses across the country. Even putting aside the sheer number of students attending school, the training of the next generation of leaders should be cause for excitement about America's future. Unfortunately, based on today's realities these |

| Technology, the Road to Recovery, and Personal Prosperity |
| Thursday, August 13, 2009 |
| As we enter the sleepy days of summer few things of substance stick in the brain. We are more likely to dwell on the 40th anniversary of Woodstock than the 40th anniversary of Apollo 11. We should not. Rather than allowing the lunar landing to be a part of the coverage carousel that cycles stories in and then out every 24 hours, we should hold onto the |
