This is the main conservative think-tank on the West Coast (the vast majority are in DC and NYC). Founded by Herbert Hoover-needless to say, they don't go out of their way to advertise this. The Hoover Institute is mostly composed of mediocre academics doing completely useless research. 3-stars because Hoover, despite its overall mediocrity, does have two of the brightest conservative minds on its team: Thomas Sowell and Niall Ferguson.
