==New Deal (American English and British English)==
Thank you for your contributions to the article on the New Deal -I'm sure you know more about it than I do.
However, you have made a minor mistake in correcting the spelling. Being new to Citizendium you are probably unaware of the convention that the originating author chooses whether the atticle is to be in American English or British English, and the choice is duly recorded on the talk page. If you look you will see that indicated as "BE" for the New deal article, meaning that it is wrritten in British English. So, for example, the spelling "program" is incorrect - it should be programme.
This doesn't bother me in the least, but there are pedants around who might object to your spelling changes.
I leave it to you to undo your spelling changes if you feel like it.

I am an assistant professor in the Department of Politics and Government at Illinois State University, where I teach various graduate and undergraduate courses on American politics. My research deals mostly with race, social movements, democratization, and political parties in the United States and South Africa. I earned my BA in Political Science from Hunter College of the City University of New York and my MA and PhD in Government from the University of Virginia.
