Our guests are John Nichols on THE GENIUS OF IMPEACHMENT: The Founder's Cure for Royalty, and poet and children's book author, Richard Michelson, who reads from his latest book for children, ACROSS THE ALLEY.
Theme: Dave Brubeck, "Cassandra" Mid-break: John Gorka, "If Not Now"
John Nichols, political correspondent for The Nation, tells us how the Founders crafted impeachment as a check against executive power, why we should embrace it as a vital tool for preserving democracy, and why it is the remedy for constitutional crisis, not the cause of it. His passionate and engaging new book, THE GENIUS OF IMPEACHMENT, is required reading for citizens and patriots of all political stripes. Also, we air the first of a two part conversation with poet and author, Richard Michelson. This week, Michelson reads from his wonderful new book for children, ACROSS THE ALLEY. It's the story of a friendship between two young boys from Brooklyn, New York, one Jewish, the other African-American. What they teach each other surprises themselves, and their elders.
