Would anyone out there like to have a chat on Zoom?  It is now the end of November, 2023 and I just passed 50,000 total downloads so I am thinking I should do something to honor that event.  What beter thing than to talk to those of you who helped make that number possible.  And I almost never get feedback from you so I really don't know who you are. We could talk about whatever you want.  The War in Gaza, American Politics, Politics in your country, podcasts that you particularly liked, or didn't. Questions that you have, your favorite book, how your life is going, or how your cat is doing. You get to set the agenda. How about 2:00 Eastern Standard Time on Saturday December 2.  That will be the evening for anyone in Europe or morning for anyone on the West Coast.  For those of you in Asia or the Pacific, you may have to scramble a bit but you are very welcome if you can make it. Please send me an email at  my university account:  Rstock@Umich.edu.  I will send you a link later this week.  I hope to see you. Rstock@Umich.edu

Political Scientist Boris Heersink's new book guides the reader through over a century of politics and national parties in the United States. Heersink's work is both qualitative and quantitative and approaches the national party organizations—the Democratic National Committee and the Republican National Committee—from the perspective of American political development. This is a fascinating study of the way that the national parties operate when their party is in the White House or when their party is out of power in terms of the presidency. Heersink has mapped out the activities and approaches of the national parties through a host of different resources, from the available archival papers of party chairmen and women, to newspaper coverage of national party activities and events, to other media mechanisms that the parties individually, or mirroring each other, pursued to shape and promote their “brand.” National Party Organizations and Party Brands in American Politics (Oxford UP, 2023) tells us a lot about how the parties, from 1912 through to the contemporary experiences, have thought of their role in relation to electoral politics, especially from the top of the ticket to those running for lots of different offices. Heersink makes an interesting argument around the idea of party branding – and how party chairmen/women have worked to develop coherence within the national party and the many state and local parties whom they collaborate with and often serve. The difficulty for American political parties has long been the lack of coordination capacity and Heersink details the difficulties in coordination and various different paths that parties have taken over the years to try to create a clear “brand” for themselves and their voters/intended voters. This clarity helps voters to understand what it is a candidate stands for or supports given their party affiliation. National Party Organizations and Party Brands in American Politics details many of the creative ways that the parties found to communicate with party officials and elected representatives and candidates who were far from Washington, D.C. The research also makes note of the shifts and changes that the parties engaged in as the media environment shifted and changed, from radio and print media, to television, to 24-hour cable news networks, to talk radio, and now to social media. The rise of the presidential primary in the latter part of the 20th century comes to influence the ways that the national parties operate and also how they are limited in their capacities. This is an expansive exploration of the ways that national parties operate in the United States, and it carries the reader through to our current political landscape and how that landscape contributes to the dynamics around the 2020 and 2024 election cycles.

In the first part of the hour, join us for a deep dive into the lasting impact of Rosalynn Carter's legacy on reshaping the role of First Ladies in American politics. American Historian, Peter Kastor, provides insightful perspectives on this significant influence. Following that, we shift our focus to Scott MacFarlane's analysis of the unreleased January 6 footage. To wrap up the hour, stay updated on the latest football developments, including insights and updates on the Kelsey Bowl. 

**After a two month hiatus, Deep Dive returns next week (Sunday, Nov 26th) with a slew of new episodes with exciting, entertaining, and interesting guests.  In the meantime, in light of the recent polling suggesting that voters may return Donald Trump to the White House in next year's presidential election, check out this Greatest Hit of Deep Dive, in advance of the 2022 midterm election, when the landscape also looked dire for Democrats.**-----What if the game of American politics is structurally rigged? Dr. David Faris, author of 'It's Time to Fight Dirty: How Democrats Can Build a Lasting Majority in American Politics', steps onto the stage in this episode to reveal the striking institutional disadvantages within our democracy. We dissect how Republicans have leveraged these disparities to gain power, and we question the true value of bipartisanship. David lays out a feasible roadmap for Democrats to counteract these imbalances, even if tactics seem a bit unorthodox.Our dialogue doesn't stop there. We examine the distressing trend of presidents securing their seat in the Oval Office without the popular vote, and the impact this has had on the perceived legitimacy of our political system. By peeling back the layers of our Constitution, we attempt to understand how its outdated mechanisms have allowed such outcomes. Despite the evident structural deficits in the House and Senate, we discuss potential solutions such as the Fair Representation Act and the bold move of statehood for DC and Puerto Rico. We wrap up our deep dive with an innovative exploration of political relocation, discussing the implications of planned mass migration of liberal voters to conservative states. Would flipping North and South Dakota, Montana, and Wyoming really make a difference? As we navigate these thought-provoking avenues, we also touch on the potential overturning of Roe v Wade, the influence of language within politics, and the potential of a central coordinating mechanism to shift the balance of Senate seats. This conversation challenges conventional thought and presents new perspectives on the dynamics of American politics. Be sure not to miss it.Recommended:It's Time to Fight Dirty: How Democrats Can Build a Lasting Majority in American Politics - David Faris-------------------------Follow Deep Dive:InstagramPost.newsYouTube Email: deepdivewithshawn@gmail.com **Artwork: Dovi Design **Music: Joystock

The election of 1800 was the first hotly contested partisan election in American history. Still, peaceful transfers of power continued for the next two centuries.

Brands, author of Founding Partisans: Hamilton, Jefferson, Madison, Adams, and the Brawling Birth of American Politics, join for an Election Day program to explore political partisanship and nationalism in early America. Jeffrey Rosen, president and CEO of the National Constitution Center, moderates.

This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, the 2023 Election is over and Democrats notched some big wins across the country (and one glaring loss right here in Colorado). We break down the results and talk about what's so special about the upcoming irregular legislative session. Of course, we check in again on our 8th favorite member of Congress from Colorado, Rep. Lauren Boebert, and we also talk about the most indicted Presidential candidate in history. On the topic of Republican Presidential candidates, Seth Masket, Director of the University of Denver's Center on American Politics and the official "Professor of the Get More Smarter Podcast" returns to unpack the latest Republican Presidential Undercard Debate; he watched it so we didn't have to!

American politics is in chaos – but in many respects the US was born that way. Throughout the late 1700s the federalist party constantly fought with the anti-federalists over their opposing desires for the future. But is partisan politics really a problem? Or is it a necessity for a democratic system to function? Seth Thevoz is joined by bestselling historian and Pulitzer Prize finalist H.W. Brands – whose new book: Founding Partisans: Hamilton, Madison, Jefferson, Adams and the Brawling Birth of American Politics explores exactly that. “Partisanship seems to be inevitable in a democratic system of competitive politics.” – H.W. Brands “There are lots of people on the conservative right who think the current government is out of control.” – H.W. Brands “If partisanship ever disappears, that's going to be a system of something much worse.” – H.W. Brands.

Brands writes about these topics in his new book "Founding Partisans." He joins us to discuss the impact of partisanship on our democracy.
