This holiday we are bringing you something different, over the last few years I’ve had the great pleasure of interviewing three different Congressmen, the Constitutional scholar, Jamie Raskin of Maryland, Tennessee’s first Jewish Congressman, Steve Cohen, and Raja Krishnamoorthi, the first Indian American Congressmen to represent Illinois. These three brilliant Democrats represent the exceptional diversity not just in the party, but in our great nation. We hope you enjoy these insightful segments from those pivotal interviews.
