Who are ‘we the people’? How might clear majorities of people prevail given that all the electeds (mostly) are against us? Dave Johnson, Gaius Publius, Stuart Zechman and Jay Ackroyd consider the political environment often described as left, right, center and the inverse relationship between the views of the people with power and the general populace.
For example, large majorities in both Republican-supporting voters and Dem-supporting voters favor No Cuts to Education, Medicare and Social Security.
How do we bring this popular coalition together in a way that wins? What are our best strategies for doing that?

Jay’s guest: the great Mary Donnelly, who founded Power Pop, one of my favorite blogs. Boy’s Don’t Lie is the tale of the second power pop revolution: the brief interval of fresh air between the death of overblown disco and the advent of MTV and the synthesizer-based bands that prospered there. Told through the history of Shoes, an unusual and influential musical group.
