On this week's episode, host Tim Boyum talks with author and retired political reporter Rob Christensen. The two discuss Christensen's newly released book, Southern News, Southern Politics, which tells the fascinating story of the Raleigh News & Observer and its impact on shaping North Carolina's political history. With a 45-year career at the newspaper, Christensen is undoubtedly an expert on its modern history. But the stories go back to the 1800s when the publisher was involved heavily in Democratic politics and even white supremacy. He also gave Tim his take on the future of newspaper and investigative journalism, which require real time, money and resources. “Influence is diminishing and right now there's not a good economic model for the News & Observer and other small local newspapers to flourish,” Christensen explained. "Who knows whether it's going to be around another 100 years."

"It has often been said that the US South is the testing ground for American democracy, which makes it frustrating how little attention national Democrats and their media pals give to Southern politics. A case in point is the decision by the North Carolina Supreme Court on April 28th, to reverse a series of election-related rulings that were handed down just months ago by the same court when it was dominated by Democrats." -excerpt from the latest commentary by Laura Flanders...The F-Word is released bi-weekly featuring timely commentaries by Laura Flanders and guests.You can hear that special report in our series on The War on Democracy by subscribing to this podcast feed or watch the show:Deciding the Fate of Democracy in North Carolina Watch / Listen, Download and Subscribe to the PodcastAnd take a listen/watch our prior special reports in the series:• The Forgotten Coup, January 6th & the Small Town Americans on the Frontlines of Democracy Watch / Download Podcast• Community Safety in a Time of Insurrection Watch / Download Podcast• North Carolina: Courageous Conversations in a Climate of Fear Watch / Download Podcast

Welcome to another special “political history” episode of The Georgia Politics Podcast. Professor Stone joins the show again, this time to discuss the life and legacy of longtime Republican Senator from Kansas and Presidential candidate, Bob Dole. Prior to his 27 years in the Senate, Dole served in the United States House of Representatives from 1961 to 1969. He was also the Republican presidential nominee in the 1996 election and the vice presidential nominee in the 1976 election. Craig and the Professor start at the beginning, with Senator Dole's modest upbringing and military service during World War II, and take listeners all the way through his political career, which was capped with the 1996 Republican nomination for President that he would eventually lose to incumbent Bill Clinton.

Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast, where Craig and Professor Stone present Part 2 of their special on the life and legacy of Senator Ted Kennedy. The primary topic for Part 2 is the notorious Chappaquiddick episode of Kennedy's life, how it shaped the country's politics, and continued a Kennedy family legacy of controversy. The Kennedys are the closest equivalent America has to political royalty. John F. Kennedy was, of course, the 35th President of the United States and his brother Bobby Kennedy served as his Attorney General, and later as a Senator from New York and Presidential candidate. Various other Kennedys have served in other appointed and elected political positions. Ted Kennedy, the younger brother of John and Bobby, is known for his long tenure in the United States Senate, where he served from 1962 until his death in 2009. His political and personal life was full of both promise and controversy. He was long considered the heir to the Kennedy dynasty, and then a tragic incident on Chappaquiddick Island left 28-year-old Mary Jo Kopechne dead after a car driven by Kennedy crashed into the Poucha Pond. Kennedy survived. Clips used in this episode: 1969 ABC News report on Ted Kennedy's accident at Chappaquiddick Island Edward J. McCormack Jr. debates Ted Kennedy for the Senate seat vacated by John F.

In her new book, “South to America,” Imani Perry dives into the heart of the “changing same” of the American South. Her work fits into a long tradition like W.J. Cash's The Mind of the South, Albert Murray's South to a Very Old Place, VO Key's Southern Politics in State and Nation and WEB Du Bois's Black Reconstruction in America, as books that unlock a deeper understanding of America through an expansive analysis of the South. Perry's South is a big South – a place filled with multiple Souths – that stretches from West Virginia to the Bahamas and beyond.

In the antebellum years, freedom and unfreedom often overlapped, even in states that were presumed “free states.” According to a new book by Kevin Waite, this was in part because the reach of the Slave South extended beyond the traditional South into newly admitted free and slave states.

On this week's episode of Tying It Together with Tim Boyum, we take a look at the South’s role in the 2020 elections. The death of George Floyd and demands for social justice have brought issues of racism and history back to the forefront with the South playing a starring role. We talk with three experts on southern politics and history about how we define the South, get an explanation of the old Southern strategy, and what strategy we will see this fall. Dr. Michael Bitzer from Catawba College, Dr. Susan Roberts from Davidson College, and Dr. Chris Cooper from Western Carolina University will give us their insight on the past and how the South could play a huge role in the 2020 election.

Michael Seltzer is a cultural anthropologist and professor emeritus at Oslo University in Norway. There is a sharp contrast in dealing with the coronavirus pandemic between Norway, Finland, and Denmark, where isolation and quarantine are in effect, as compared to Sweden, where the economy is open, and the death rate is much higher. Mike says learning from the experience of Scandinavia is instructive for the United States as some states open for business, while others stay locked down. Mike looks at the history and politics behind these different approaches. Michael Goldfield discusses his new book, The Southern Key: Class Race & Radicalism in the 1930s and 1940s. He argues that the political economic evolution of the South has been the key to determining the peculiar nature of American politics. Today the South is the center of reaction, leading the fight against choice, women and LGBTQ rights, the right to unionize — and even in the fight against the lockdown and quarantine necessary to halt the spread of coronavirus. It didn’t have to be this way and Goldfield holds that the experience (and failure) of organizing the working class in the South explains the origins of the current state of the United States and the world; and that the defeats from that time closed off the possibilities for meaningful class and anti-racist politics — as well as for a successful labor movement for decades to come.
Episode 38 December 13, 2019 CLP topic. Vichy Republican Collaborators America After Trump? Introduction. Our podcast today extends Angelo Codevilla's recent analysis about the future of America, after the 2020 election. We use Codevilla's analysis to examine the future of America from the perspective of what happens to the establishment Republican Party, what happens to the Trump conservative movement, and what happens to America, as a nation. Codevilla asks, “The instant after the 2020 elections… the real question is: What will become of us? What can we, what must we, do for ourselves?...Not even winning a bloody civil war against the ruling class could accomplish such a thing as returning the nation to its founding principles.” Codevilla argues that restoring the country to its founding vision is “out of the question.” He says, “Constitutional conservatism on behalf of a country, a large part of which rejects common citizenship, is impossible.” Codevilla cites the work of F. H. Buckley, in his book, American Secession: The Looming Threat of a National Breakup, to argue that the framework of state sovereignty federalism, in the Articles of Confederation, offered a better pathway for protecting the natural rights of citizens than Madison's centralized representative republic. Our podcast argues that Codevilla's analysis of the impossibility of returning to the founding principles is correct. He argues that the deep state, which Codevilla calls, the “ruling elite class,” are too far entrenched in the existing government to ever return to a government based upon the consent of the governed. The establishment Republicans, represented by Karl Rove, are the administrative organization of the deep state, and the State Department bureaucrats who showed up in the impeachment hearings to testify against Trump, are directed by the global ruling class leaders of the deep state. To paraphrase V. O. Key, in Southern Politics in State and Nation, the agents of the deep state do the bidding of the global elite, without prompting, because they both share a deep ideological commitment to advancing global socialism. According to the Democrat's interpretation of impeachment, Trump abused his power by not obeying the agents of the deep state. In her recent book about Trump, Nikki Haley identifies Tillerson and Kelly as members of the deep state governing apparatus. She explains that Tillerson and Kelly attempted to recruit her in the attempted deep state coup against Trump. Rush Limbaugh sees Haley as the possible leader of the Trump conservative movement, after 2024. He thinks that the Republican Party is actually the Trump conservative movement, and that Haley has been converted as a Trump protégé. Limbaugh writes, “Now, I actually believe that the Republican Party doesn't know it yet, but it is Trump's party.” Limbaugh believes that Haley is not willing to have the Republican institutional establishment returned to Karl Rove after the 2020 election. In his article, “Nikki Haley fires the first shot in the GOP's post-Trump war,” J.T. Young, states that, “Haley has signaled that she will not side with those desiring to return the party to its establishment. Establishment Republicans believe Trump to be just a momentary break in their political and policy continuum. After Trump, they will both purge the Trump interlopers and regularly beat a vulnerable Democratic Party now hostage to its left wing.” Neither the establishment Republican Party of Karl Rove, nor Nikki Haley, as the leader of the Trump conservative movement, can overcome the irreconcilable differences between the socialist Democrats and natural rights conservatives. Karl Rove's American Crossroads and American Action Network are the defacto Republican establishment political front groups that use the Republican organizational apparatus to promote the interests of America's wealthiest families and global corporations. Rove, and his groups, are best seen as Republican Vichy Collaborators, with the socialists, to implement a new world order. Rove is a political operative of the deep state, and takes his orders from the global ruling class. Trump's conservative political movement does not have a coherent political ideology of individualism, and Haley's recent book about Trump does not address Codevilla's argument about the entrenched power of the ruling elite class. Unlike the establishment Republicans of Rove, the socialist Democrats have a coherent anti-American ideology, based upon grievance and victimization. After 2020, the Democrats will continue to advocate the transformation of America into a global socialist nation, ruled by the deep state elites. The socialists are driven by their ideology that socialism is better than individualism, and they will never stop undermining America until they implement a totalitarian socialist regime. There is no other side to the war over the future of America because Rove's establishment Republicans do not have an ideology of individual freedom. This podcast concludes that Codevilla and Young are correct in their assessment that America is over. The obvious competitor ideology to socialism, after 2020, is to return to the revolutionary Spirit of '76, and the restoration of the American Democratic Impulse. The only peaceful, non-violent strategy for solving the irreconcilable differences is a civil dissolution of the nation, based upon a vote in each legislature to either join the new Democratic Republic of America, or cast their lot with the new Socialists States of America.
This week our special guest is Governor Kay Ivey. In a full-episode interview, Bill Britt asks Ivey about her plans for criminal justice reform, mental health, gaming, Amendment One, and leadership.
Arkansas is one of America’s poorest states. Today, it’s also one of its reddest, and the politicians it sends to Washington, like its star senator, Tom Cotton, aim to cut the government assistance programs that many Arkansans depend on. But the state was once solidly democratic, and elected charismatic democratic politicians like former President Bill Clinton, for decades. In the second of three episodes exploring the contemporary Republican Party, and the future of the party after Trump, Sean Morrow digs into the forces that brought Sen. Cotton to power, including deep pocketed donors like Charles Koch, and untangles the complexities of white identity politics and the nationalization of Southern beliefs and attitudes.

On this week’s podcast, Kaiser and Jeremy speak with Andy Rothman, an investment strategist at Matthews Asia, to get his take on recent developments in the U.S.-China trade war. Andy lived in China for over 20 years, and was previously the chief China strategist for the brokerage and investment group CLSA after a long career in the U.S. Foreign Service. What to listen for on this week’s Sinica Podcast:14:09: Andy comments on the protracted detentions of Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig: “They need to treat the two Canadians as they would like Chinese to be treated in Canada and the United States. That’s not happening and it’s sending the wrong message, and it’s further politicizing what should be a technical issue. So, I’m hoping we’re going to see some progress on this, but certainly I don’t see any signs in that direction at the moment.” He also says a voice of reason could come from an unlikely place: “I would also like to see Huawei, as a company, speak out against this kind of retaliation.” In addition, he notes that he has mentioned this to individuals at the company, but “they did not have any response.”36:54: Andy chimes in on the issue of engagement versus decoupling: “I think the engagement option for dealing with China versus decoupling and containment gets a bad rap. I think it’s really important for us to look back over the last 40 years of engagement and recognize that it has worked pretty well. Both for Americans and Chinese citizens, and that should be important for us, too.” He continues, diving into the numbers: “On the trade side, we’ve gotten fantastic access. China was an irrelevant player on the global economy up until 20 years ago. Now it’s our number one trading partner. Since China joined the WTO, U.S. exports are up to China about 500 percent, whereas they’re only up about 100 percent to the rest of the world. Prior to the tariff dispute, agricultural exports to China were up over 1,000 percent, and it was our biggest market.” Recommendations:Jeremy: The Secrets of the Hopewell Box: Stolen Elections, Southern Politics, and a City's Coming of Age, by James D.

Matt Heermans, the "Barrister of Bodacious Barbecue," adds "Barrister of Big 12 Football" to his duties. While you get your grill out this opening weekend of college football, the Oklahoma Sooners have a pesky Houston Cougars squad sneaking into Norman. And in this week's Southern Political Report, new polling suggests a three-way tie atop the Democratic race for president in 2020.
Baylor University football coach Matt Rhule discusses the Bears' quarterback depth as the Big 12 program preps for the season opener against in-state foe Stephen F. Austin. The barbecue guru Matt Heermans has his own thoughts on college football – and bacon, too. Also, our Southern political focus this week includes audio from Attorney General William Barr, U.S. Sen. Tim Scott (R–S.C.) and Mississippi gubernatorial candidate Jim Hood (D-Miss.).
"The Barbecue Barrister" has the perfect Fourth of July preview – including tips on preparation, savory hot dog pointers, and a spare rib extravaganza. Mississippians go to the polls Aug. 6 for a primary to select the finalists for governor, attorney general, and more. We set the political stage in the Magnolia State; and relay the best-run and worst-run cities in the South.

Several weeks ago, we had Professor Lilliana Mason on the podcast talking about her book about the process of social sorting that has deepened divides between citizens by aligning race, religion, and region. Mason argues that social sorting acts on a psychological-level, shaping how not just how people view policy but also political opponents. This week on the podcast, Matt Blackwell and Maya Sen extend this conversation back into history. In Deep Roots: How Slavery Still Shapes Southern Politics (Princeton University Press, 2018), the authors (with Avidit Acharya) argue that views on race have deeply historical roots, passed on across generations through cultural practices and other institutional mechanisms. They call this behavioral path dependence. Using sophisticated statistical analysis, they find that the long, disturbing legacy of slavery can be observed in the variation of attitudes of those living in different southern communities. In counties where slavery thrived in the 1860s (compared to similar counties in the south where slavery was less prevalent), white citizens hold significantly more hostile views of African Americans and express less support for race-related public policies. Interestingly, when they compare residents in those same two types of southern counties, their non-race views on other conservative issues, such as abortion, are essentially the same. Thus, the legacy of slavery is not in general conservative beliefs, but in specific and negative views on race. Avidit Acharya is assistant professor of political science at Stanford University. Matthew Blackwell is assistant professor of government at Harvard University. Maya Sen is associate professor of public policy at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.
