Probably the best is Steve Smith at Wash U. Knows everything about Congress and is extremely talkative, interesting, funny, etc. Joel Aberbach at UCLA is very knowledgeable about oversight, but he won't be a spellbinding talker. Richard Hall at Michigan is very knowledgeable, but I have never heard him give a talk. These are the ones who occur to me off the top.

2. Hire 2-3 senior scholars on congressional oversight to prepare a seminar for the members. The scholars should be senior enough and have communication skills such that the commissioners would view this as an opportunity to discuss the issue with experts. The scholars would each write a paper or prepare a briefing on the problem of oversight, with special emphasis on the problems presented by intelligence and other terrorism-related topics. The objective is to make intelligence/counterterrorism oversight a routine part of the congressional process, and get a broad perspective on the problems of oversight as they apply to the new CT threat. I'd suggest Dick Fenno if he is available. Morris Fiorina from Stanford might also be good. Regards, B
