James Carville Biography

James "The Ragin' Cajun" Carville is America's best-known political consultant. His long list of electoral successes evidences a knack for steering overlooked campaigns to unexpected landslide victories and for re-making political underdogs into upset winners.

His winning streak began in 1986, when he managed the gubernatorial victory of Robert Casey in Pennsylvania. In 1987, Carville helped guide Wallace Wilkinson to the governor's seat in Kentucky. Carville continued his winning streak with wins in New Jersey with Frank Lautenberg elected to the US Senate. He next managed the successful 1990 gubernatorial campaign of Georgia's Lieutenant Governor Zell Miller, including a tough primary win over Atlanta mayor Andrew Young, and in 1991, Carvillewho had already become prominent in political circles, drew national attention when he led Senator Harris Wofford from 40 points behind in the polls to an upset landslide victory over former Pennsylvania Governor and U.S. Attorney General Richard Thornburgh. His most prominent victory was in 1992 when he helped William Jefferson Clinton win the presidency.

Carville now discusses with audiences what effects political division will have on both political parties, the race for the White House, and our country for decades to come. In addition to his expertise in domestic politics, Carville has also worked on international campaigns in more than 23 countries, including those of 14 heads of state. He is also a columnist for The Hill newspaper, which publishes daily when Congress is in session, and the author of numerous books, including It’s the "Middle Class, Stupid!" and "All’s Fair: Love, War, and Running for President," written with his wife and favorite debate partner Mary Matalin.

In their second joint memoir, "Love and War: Twenty Years, Three Presidents, Two Daughters and One Louisiana Home," Carville and Matalin take a look at how they—and America—have changed in the last two decades. In their two distinct voices, they pick up their story from the end of the 1992 Presidential campaign to their new life in New Orleans today, where their efforts to rebuild and promote that city have become a central part of their lives—and a poignant metaphor for moving the nation forward. Carville’s latest book, "We’re Still Right, They’re Still Wrong," updates his 1996 New York Times bestseller with a thoughtful, sharp analysis of Hillary Clinton, the Democratic Party, Donald Trump, and the 2016 presidential race.

BOOK James Carville

James Carville Speaking Topics

  • All’s Fair: Love, War and Politics

    One of America’s best-loved political couples—James Carville and Mary Matalin—give audiences an enlightening and entertaining look at today’s most important political issues, the 2016 race for the White House and a behind-the-scenes look at politics inside Washington. Matalin and Carville are key players on the national political stage—they each have over 30 years of experience in politics and have individually worked for Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. They combine their unique experiences to provide audiences with a stimulating, candid and provocative conversation from both sides of the political aisle.

  • James Carville Looks at Politics and the 2016 Race for the White House

    The legendary, provocative and always timely James Carville presents his captivating views on American and international politics, spiced with his own unique brand of optimism and humor. This political mastermind and a fixture in US politics shares his thoughts on current events, the GOP-controlled Congress, the final years of the administration of Barack Obama, the 2016 Presidential election horserace and the challenges facing the major political parties and players. Carville discusses how, beginning in 2006, American political power started shifting between the two parties at a glacial pace with neither party holding onto the reigns of leadership for long. The highly partisan atmosphere in Washington and constant power shifts over the last few years have proven that the old rules of politics and power are gone—maybe forever. Why is this happening? Are politicians intentionally dividing the electorate for political gain? Why have things become so partisan? He dissects the extreme political forces shaping the country and shows what trends from the last two decades mean for our political future. Using data derived from the intersection of policy, politics and public opinion, Carville believes the real strength in America is the power of youth and that those wishing to maintain political power ignore this bloc at their own peril.
