on her time in the political world, Patricia Duff currently
serves as the head of The Common Good (TCG).
Founded almost 10 years ago in New York City, The
Common Good is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization
committed to reviving the public square in American
politics. Sponsored by memberships and donations, TCG
works toward its goal by seeking new ideas from differing
points of view, encouraging reasoned national debate,
and ensuring the freedom of speech and press.

3.  Throughout the year, The Common Good hosts a
number of events that engage its members and the
national community in ways that draw on history
while looking toward the future. Past events include a
trip to Selma, Alabama, to commemorate the 50th
anniversary of the march to Montgomery for the
Voting Rights Act of 1965. TCG has also featured
luncheons with sitting senators and other important
political figures. Further, The Common Good features
guest speakers who focus more on creating
discussion than on simply lecturing. Guest speakers
throughout its history include elected officials, such as
President Bill Clinton and Vice President Dick Cheney,
political operatives, journalists and authors, and a
wide range of people from many different industries.
