Jul 10 - LIBERAL, CONSERVATIVE, LIBERTARIAN: WHAT DO THEY MEAN AND WHY DOES IT MATTER?
As the 2012 election nears, we take a deeper look at the political labels that get thrown around so much. What are the key ideas behind Liberalism, Conservatism and Libertarianism? How did these movements start and how have they changed? Have these labels outlived their usefulness? Looking at great thinkers and hot issues, we will cut through the spin with a lively, unbiased and civil discussion.
Presenter: Chris Tucker, journalist, teacher, actor, and commentator for KERA 90.1 FM, National Public Radio
