We've got a great guest for our 84th Annual Dinner on May 19: Morton Kondracke, known to many from his years on TV's iconic The McLaughlin Group ​and for his work as a journalist, columnist and commentator at the Chicago Sun-Times, The New Republic, Newsweek, Roll Call and Fox News…just to name a few (he even made it onto President Nixon's enemies list in the 1970s!). Most recently, he's the author of "Jack Kemp: The Bleeding-Heart Conservative Who Changed America," which will be available for sale and signing. Mr. Kondracke will speak on the most relevant of topics: the 2016 presidential election. You won't want to miss his incisive take on the state of American politics.

Here are the details:
