David Frum is a journalist and Resident Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, and is an advocate of American conservatism. He was a special assistant and speechwriter to George W. Bush. He speaks and writes for conservative principles, and is a columnist for the National Post (Canada), and a contributing editor for The Weekly Standard. He was a contributing editor for National Review, and runs the NewMajority.com website, "dedicated to the modernization and renewal of the Republican party and the conservative movement."

"He studies recent political, generational, and demographic trends and warns that the conservatism of the 1980s will have to revise and reinvent itself to compete in twenty-first century America. In 2007, the British newspaper Daily Telegraph named him one of America's fifty most influential conservatives." He also edits the NewMajority.com website. He is currently at work on a book about the decline of the Republican Party in California since 1990.
