Hosted by Clayton Morgareidge, this program opens with some reflections on why the presidential campaign is treated as a horserace, not as a debate on the future of the nation. Bill Resnick talks with local bicycling activists Tim Calvert and Elinor Blue about how bicycling can change our cities and our lives. Luz María Gordillo reads her short story "Hot Señorita", one of her series on the Mexican immigrant experience. Carolyn Jessop talks with Bill Resnick about her experience in a polygamous, fundamentalist Mormon community. We hear part one of a two-part interview. And Laurie Mercier summarizes what Ari Berman has been writing in The Nation about the Iowa Caucuses and which candidate seems to be getting the nod from big corporations and the military-industrial complex.
