Lakoff is a professor of linguistics (in particular, cognitive linguistics) at the University of California, Berkeley, where he has taught since 1972. <br />Although some of his research involves questions traditionally pursued by linguists, such as the conditions under which a certain linguistic construction is grammatically viable, he is most famous for his ideas about the centrality of metaphor to human thinking, political behavior and society.</p> <p>He is particularly famous for his concept of the "embodied mind" which he has written about in relation to mathematics. In recent years he has applied his work to the realm of politics, and founded a progressive think tank, the Rockridge Institute.</p> <p>Joe Epstein is the former President of The Commonwealth Club's Board of Governors.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/45919-idea-framing-metaphors-and-your-brain-george-lakoff">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/44935-national-endowment-for-the-arts 2009-01-07T22:40:20Z MobLogicTV <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/vqtbFjK3YZg&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/vqtbFjK3YZg&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/44935-national-endowment-for-the-arts"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/51414" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Clinton cut it in half.

America must also improve its image in the minds of these young people by reducing its military footprint and leveraging its economic and ideological strengths.</p> <p>Serious, bipartisan leadership is required to address the myriad challenges that today's complex world presents. The Nebraska native compared America’s political leaders to prairie dogs, who dart around without reflection and are quick to hide rather than invite controversy.</p> <p>The Senator offered three pieces of advice to the next president. First, establish quickly a bipartisan cabinet of the country’s most talented men and women in the mode of Abraham Lincoln.</p> <p>Second, reach out to the Congress, which has abdicated its responsibilities for the past eight years and whose support will be necessary to pursue a consistent foreign policy.</p> <p>Third, travel both across the country and throughout the world to consolidate support at home and strengthen alliances abroad - New America Foundation</p> <p>Chuck Hagel is a United States Senator representing Nebraska.
