News & Politics
Green Party congressional candidate Lewis Elbinger joins us for a surprising and wide ranging interview touching on his hopes to win office, what he thinks his ideas and the Green Party can bring to governing and his experience as a Vietnam war photographer, his experience in the State Department, his time working with Secretary of Defense James Mattis and his respect for Colin Powell. He also talks with Aaron and Mike about the painful divisions in the Democratic Party between the old guard and the new energy of Bernie Sanders supporters. He and Aaron share war stories about the shenanigans which kept them from being delegates for Sanders in 2016 and look ahead for what can be done to reform the party. Every week writer and publisher Mike Richman and Democratic political consultant Aaron Haar talk about the news, goings on and political events in Northern California from a distinctly progressive perspective.
