The host misses the mark; Lepore's book shouldn't be required reading for every federal office holder. It would be better if we, the people, read it. Then what an office holder read, or hadn't read, wouldn't matter as much. I would never support required reading. But, if I did, this book would be on a very short list. Wonderful.

Very brilliant and enlightening
Excellent! Your lively energy is contagious! Go, Woman!
Lepore is our greatest living American historian, IMHO.
3:30 Good humour: all of our political conversations are really just condensed, reductive historical arguments. All of them. Just. Reductive.
Its all bs and I'm tired of it.
Meaning? What..
