    This woman is so insightful. I’ve listened to three interviews with her to date and am engaged in each one. Thank you for posting this. I do wish she would talk more about what we can do in light of what she is telling us. I’d like not to feel so powerless as I watch my country begin to turn on itself like an autoimmune disease. It was encouraging to hear her say that the last part of her book is about what we can do. I wasn’t sure I was going to buy it until I heard that. An interview focusing on those suggestions would be most welcome. I fear we have difficult waters ahead whether trump wins or loses and we need a plan or at least some initial ideas of one.

      My fear is that the Dem. party's leadership don't seem to have a game plan. Fighting back HAS to start now.
