Postponed: The History of Political Parties and Their Role in American Politics: Is the Two-Party System as We’ve Known It Dead?
Description
This session has been re-scheduled for Wednesday, April 11th.
Are We Still in This Together? The Death of Parties, the Rise of Tribalism in American Politics and What It Portends for Our Future
George Washington warned us: “…[political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion." Scott Jennings will host former RNC Chief of Staff Mike Shields and former DNC Chief Executive Officer Amy Dacey to explore the weaknesses in the two-party system today.
Guests: Mike Shields, former RNC Chief of Staff, and Amy Dacey, former DNC Chief Executive Officer
