Subject: MPA: Announcing a new radio talk show on politics
Listen this Friday night at midnight (actually Saturday, at midnight on
January 11 during the Brad Walton show), on WCCO Radio, AM 830, for the
first installment of a new type of radio talk show on politics that
examines in depth the substantive of government, public policy, and
politics.
The title of the new show is "In the Classroom of Politics with Professor
David Schultz."
Serving as perhaps the largest classroom around, the emphasis of the
on-air class will be to move beyond simply looking at the "horse race"
aspects of politics or the ideological screaming and shouting matches that
complain about government and politics.
Instead, the focus will be upon intelligent, informed, and serious
discussion of how the political process works and why, and identification
of the major issues facing the United States, Minnesota, and local
governments. The emphasis will be upon becoming more informed and engaged
citizens and on seeking to develop real solutions to the problems we face.
Topics to be discussed will include, but not be limited to: budget
deficits, housing, transportation, taxes, the economy, election reform,
national security, ethics, and the character and public accountability of
elected officials.
This week will we discuss how a bill becomes a law in Minnesota, the major
issues on the 2003 state legislative agenda, and other topics of interest
to the listeners.
