 ==Biography==
 From the Policy Exchange website in September 2014:
-:David Frum is senior editor at [[The Atlantic]] and the author of eight books, most recently the e-book ''Why Romney Lost And What The GOP Can Do About It'' (published on the Thursday after the 2012 Presidential election); one of its key contentions is that the [[Republican Party]] drifted from its historic base in the American middle-classes and subscribed instead to an ideology that was off-putting to large numbers of people. His most recent lengthy article entitled, 'Why the GOP must modernise to win', appeared in this month’s version of influential magazine, Foreign Affairs. David has also served as a Presidential speechwriter and divides his time between Washington, DC, and Toronto, Canada, the home of his family’s company, the [[Frum Development Group]].<ref name="Frum">
