The Political Cartel is “an ideological roundtable” because we want to promote diversity of opinion. We hope this can be an avenue of shared wisdom and knowledge, where everyone benefits from each other as we engage in friendly debate. We invite you to disagree, to voice your opinion, and to challenge others to think. What makes this blog great is not the genius of the authors, but the contributions and the debate brought forward by the readers.

Steve Denney, David Manes, Chris McNeal, and Karie Cross are the authors at Political Cartel. We are young politically-minded intellectuals who enjoy healthy debate and discussion on a variety of issues including politics, society, and philosophy. We know each other from studying Political Science together at Harding University in Searcy, Arkansas.

Welcome to the Political Cartel, an ideological roundtable!
