    The Poverty of Obama's Pragmatism

    Research | Articles | by Peter Berkowitz
    Saturday, November 8, 2014

    During his meteoric rise to the White House, President Obama was touted as a pragmatist -- one who overcomes ideology, transcends partisanship, and focuses on the practical and doable.

    DIVISIONS AND DECISIONS: The Ethics of Stem Cell Research

    Research | Videos
    Tuesday, September 25, 2001

But his decision ended neither stem cell research nor the debate over the ethics of such research. How do we weigh the medical benefits of this research against the destruction of embryos? Where do we draw the line on research using human embryos and are we on a slippery slope toward even more controversial research?
