June 27, 2025 The Middle Ground: Where Politics and Common sense meet
Send us a text
Roger Friedman shares insights from his 45-year career in financial services and discusses his book "Erasing America: Broken Politics, Broken Country." The conversation explores bipartisan solutions to America's most pressing problems while examining the successes of RFK Jr.'s health initiatives and immigration reform possibilities.

• RFK Jr. successfully got major insurers to commit to streamlining pre-approval processes, potentially transforming healthcare accessibility
• European countries banned harmful food dyes decades ago while Americans continue consuming these substances in everyday foods
• Both sides of the political spectrum can find common ground on immigration by acknowledging the contributions of immigrants while securing borders
• The Biden administration's "auto pen scandal" raises serious constitutional questions about who was actually making presidential decisions
• Media personalities like Chris Cuomo and Chuck Todd have become more centrist after leaving mainstream networks
• Proposal for mandatory military service as a pathway to citizenship for immigrants combines conservative priorities with progressive objectives
