The past year has seen high political theater on almost a daily basis in the nation’s capital, from presidential politics to congressional scandals and blockbuster Supreme Court developments. Only a couple steps down from that prime-time-newsworthy material has been Heritage’s search for a new president for the conservative juggernaut.
Former president Ed Feulner retook the helm on an interim basis following the resignation of Sen. Jim DeMint in March 2017, and there has been nonstop speculation in D.C. since then as to who would permanently lead Heritage in what many people see as a window of extraordinary opportunity.
An early sign of James’s clout within the organization, and the conservative movement as a whole, was when she was tapped to lead Heritage’s search committee for a new president. When another trustee nominated her for consideration in her own right, she stepped aside from the committee and former Attorney General Edwin Meese chaired the selection process that ultimately led to unanimous support for James.

Another worthless organization that does nothung to advance the public's interest. You want to help drive discussion? Perform robust quality OBJECTIVE analysis of facts and data to get us to the truth. There is no need for partisan spin when one's platform is correct and aligned to reality.
Kay James will make a very good leader for the Heritage Foundation...worked with her many years ago with Concerned Women for America and other Conservative groups to help POLS understand the importance of a 'healthy moral' climate for our nation...She's very knowledgeable and has her finger on the pulse of America...
