It was a real pleasure to have @RadioFreeTom with us on The Doorstep! He indeed brought the fire ... more on that below ...
One thing we've always found is that when @RadioFreeTom says something, people can get angry--but his comments on the need for people to vote and to vote and be involved at all levels if they are dissatisfied with the status quo.
The @carnegiecouncil report on possible narratives for U.S. foreign policy included the emergence of climate change as an organizing principle for U.S. foreign policy. carnegiecouncil.org/publications/a…
But that won't happen if advocates don't get elected and/or engage in the political process.
@saletan third takeaway from his analysis of the election: "better turnout." slate.com/news-and-polit…
And if @RadioFreeTom 's harangues to vote at all levels doesn't register, how about @EricLevitz : "Progressives should redouble their efforts at making change at the state-level – and, at leveraging state-level power for national change." nymag.com/intelligencer/…
@DoorstepPodcast focuses on how international affairs affects you at your doorstep, but this is a reminder that voting is a way you impact the world beyond your doorstep.
