ThinkNext.blog

ThinkNext.blog is a website that is dedicated to international and foreign affairs, while taking a close look at domestic and grass-roots politics in the United States. This is not your typical political blog. ThinkNext.blog stands out from other political blogs because it caters to the thinkers around the world who wish to have an in-depth look at an article, and not just a smattering of the news. Michael Downie is the host of the blog, and he is never predictable with his outlook on political scams and schemes, and delights in satire and the whole bare truth. Downie, a former Professor of English and American Literature, always taught the context in which the text was produced, unlike many of his colleagues, with whom he loved to spar, but still loves to take a look at the historical context of the piece, its proper analysis, and, if he can, include a bit of humor or satire… political gamesmanship!
