Rutgers University

I’m a lifelong resident of New Jersey, so it only seemed natural to stick with the Garden State and attend Rutgers. I write for the school newspaper, The Daily Targum, as a columnist, and served as a fellow with the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America (CAMERA), which provided me an opportunity to write about the Arab-Israel conflict. I currently intern with National Review magazine, and I plan on attending graduate school. Hopefully, in twenty years, you will see me being interviewed on the History Channel about something other than aliens. My favorite novel is The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, and my favorite movie is On the Waterfront.

Etch-A-Sketch and Other Out-of-Context Nonsense March 21, 2012 If there's one aspect of modern American politics that I can't stand, it's the constant effort to take quotes out of context- as we saw today with the controversy about Mitt Romney's campaign and an 'Etch-a-Sketch.' The whole phenomenon is just dishonest.

Sandra Fluke’s Testimony and Other Nonsense March 14, 2012 The Republican party is not at war with women; it--and conservatives more broadly--are at war with the idea that government should force a person to directly pay for another's contraception. Sandra Fluke serves merely as a distraction of the left.

My Friend, the Domestic Terrorist March 7, 2012 After a string of attacks on New Jersey synagogues, police began a rigorous investigation to find the perpetrators. The person they eventually discovered was behind the acts proved shocking- he happened to be a friend of mine from Rutgers.

Andrew Breitbart and NextGen Journal March 1, 2012 Andrew Breitbart is dead at age 43. Certainly, he made mistakes in his career, and his style could be needlessly brash. On the other hand, even the most dogmatic liberal must concede the importance of his accomplishments.

Santorum is Right: Obama IS a Snob February 29, 2012 Although Rick Santorum encountered a setback last night, his message will continue to resonate with millions of voters. Yes, he may have a tendency to speak provocatively, but the criticism behind his latest comments about 'snobbery' is sound.

In Defense of Religion February 17, 2012 Religions are a path to communicate with the divine. While the tendency to brand religious traditions, such as those of Mitt Romney, as "weird" has taken root, it neglects the meaning many of these "weird" rituals have for believers themselves.
