Prospect online this week

Tom Nuttall  —  16th January 2008

More coverage of the US presidential campaign this week, with a focus on two of the hot-button issues for the Republicans and Democrats respectively—immigration and healthcare.

  • Will Straw, who is also blogging for us this week from South Carolina, explains why immigration is so important to Republican voters and looks at the prospects for reform.
  • Aimee Donnellan on the need for reform of the US healthcare system, and the differences between the various Democratic candidates’s plans.
  • And Steven Hill of the New America Foundation , with a plan for how to fix America’s broken primary system.

Meanwhile, following last month’s cover story on Ireland’s new breed of super-rich, our own Mary Fitzgerald takes a look at the darker side of Ireland’s stunning economic boom.
