Dinesh D'Souza, President of The King's College, said, “In America, Larry Kudlow provides one of the best full-throated defenses of free market capitalism, supply side economics and sound money. Our graduates, who have a solid understanding of economics, will have an opportunity to hear how wealth is created and the system that produces it—as well as the forces at work against it—from someone who is in the public square daily. I am delighted to announce Mr. Kudlow as our commencement speaker for the graduating class of 2012.”
