A conversation with Mike Shepard, the political editor of the Bangor Daily News

As America continues its great struggle in the 21st century, knowing who we are and what our nation has long stood for will help us solve the divide we currently face. Raw, emotional, outrage is the currency of our political system, but more often than not, we dont seem to know why we are angry ... we simply are. Knowing the intention of our Founders for our nation's future is critical to our present.&nbsp; Understanding how our government works is the key to fixing her problems, but for most Americans, they struggle with knowing the difference between our state legislatures and members of Congress. This podcast will explore, in depth, the foundations that have made us strong, and the efforts to weaken us from within. My Mother always said, "Plain talk is easy understood."&nbsp; That is what you will get here, plain talk, without having to guess what it means.
