Vahram Hovyan, « The Political Potential of the Armenian Community of the Usa: A Classification Attempt », HAL-SHS : sciences politiques, ID : 10670/1.xlr3kc
The political potential of the Armenian community of the USA can be divided in two parts according to the level of organization: institutional and individual. At the institutional level it is manifested in the form of traditional political parties and predominantly, lobbyist organizations. At the individual level, the Armenian political potential, in turn, is divided into two levels: federal and local government officials of Armenian descent. At the federal level, there are Armenians in all three branches of power (legislative, executive and judicial), as well as in international organizations (such as UN). At the local level, there are Armenians in both state and municipal government bodies.The Armenian reporters working in American media are part of the political potential of the Armenian community in the US, at the individual level.
