If you could change anything about the American political system what would it be? This question and more get answered in this week’s episode. Once again, I will be turning over the podcast to Professor Andrew Trees, who is the co-chair of the programming committee for the American Dream Reconsidered Conference, which will be held from November 1^st to November 4th.  Andy will be interviewing Professor David Faris. David will be moderating one of our November 1^st panels—The American Dream During a Time of Division. David will be talking with David Axelrod, the former senior advisor to President Obama, and to Bill Kristol, a political commentator the former chief of staff to Vice President Quayle. This reprises a panel we held after President Trump was elected, and I’m curious to hear how things have changed in the intervening years. In the podcast, Andy and David have a wide-ranging conversation talking about everything from politics to baseball as they discuss our current political moment.
