Episode 12 of the We the Voters podcast asks and answers big questions about the role of the United States as a global leader. Host Emily Cate Topczewski defines big theories — isolationism and multiculturalism — and walks through their history in the US. 

Then, Emily Cate looks at the issue from two sides: (A) the US is best served if it limits its role in global affairs, saying that the American way of life needs to be protected and (B) it is the responsibility of the US to be a leader in the world, saying that diversity is what makes the American way of life unique.
