Left Agenda & Progresstve Toward Democracy

1st hr.  'Left Agenda w/ Stewart Alexander'
2nd hr. 'Progress Toward Democracy w/ Brian Stetten and Ruthann Amarteifio'

Stewart welcomes back Max Petkiewicz, a student at Kent St. Univ., in Ohio.
"Why Ia A Socialist America Appealing To American Youth?"
Also to be discussed is how Bernie Sanders managed to reach a greater number of Millenials than any of the other US presidential candidates-----

"The Collapse of the Two Party System"
Brian and Ruthann welcome Mike Essen, arch-conservative radio talk show host.
Mike has interviewed guests such as former Rep.candidate for US President, Ben Carson, former Florida Rep. Congressman Allen West, and anti-feminist Phyllis Schlafly.
Very pro-life and pro-gun rights, Mike is a lifelong Republican.
He detests Donald Trump and what is happening with, and to, the Republican party.
As we see the bases of the largest political parties become disenfranchised from the parties themselves, is this the death knell of these political institutions?
