“There are very few reporters — indeed, very few experts of any stripe — who can go as wide and as deep as David Sanger can on American foreign policy and American politics. David occupies one of the most influential perches in all of journalism, and he has an engaging personality that brings his world alive to students and professors alike. David was very generous with his time, meeting individually with graduate students doing specialized research and in small groups with students who wanted an insider’s perspective on one of the most fascinating periods in American history. This was an excellent event for Duke, informative and exhilarating.”

“Thank you for your magnificent presentation last night. My phones (cell, office and home) haven't stopped ringing and I have numerous e-mails and even a bouquet of flowers all praising the event.

His insightful and balanced assessment of the administration's handling of recent crises -- including Iran, Iraq, and Korea -- was met by rave reviews. David Sanger is a thoughtful and engaging speaker who gave us a glimpse into the White House and the administration's handling of foreign policy at this critical time in our nation's history.”
