	<title>Interview with Charles Murray</title>
	<link>http://www.theconservativevoice.com/article/34140.html</link>
	<description>At the time I was a psychology graduate student and found that most of my associates were familiar with the work but deemed it a book to be burned rather than read. I, however, bought it anyway, and like to think that my purchase foreshadowed my eventual defection from the Democratic Party. While the mainstream media may deem Dr. Charles Murray a pariah, he has been a hero of mine for fourteen years. His fame preceded the 1990s, however. Losing Ground: American Social Policy 19501980 is a work that permanently altered public perceptions regarding the welfare state. Therefore, it was an honor to have him answer a few questions about his latest publication, Real Education: Four Simple Truths for Bringing America&amp;amp;#39;s Schools Back to Reality. Currently, he is the W. H. Brady Scholar at the American Enterprise Institute. &amp;#xD;&amp;#xA;</description>
