Podcast: The US elections

Posted by Peter Bradwell at 3:00pm on Monday, 27th October 2008


Last Monday, 20th October, we hosted a fantastic discussion on the upcoming US elections. We had a great panel: Demos director Richard Reeves chaired, and we welcomed Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland; Rick Perlstein, author of 'Nixonland'; Jim Sciutto, Senior Foreign Correspondant for ABC News; and James Crabtree, Senior Editor, Prospect.

I think its fair to say that there was a pretty cautious mood around the likelihood of an Obama victory - but likely was undeniably the feeling. The focus was on how transformational the result could be - on the implications of a victory for either side, and what it might mean for the US' domestic political landscape, and their international relationships.

In this podcast you can hear Jonathan Freedland's talk, and from the events page you can download all the other audio from the event page.

As always there are 5 ways to hear the Demos podcasts:

1. Via iTunes
2. By subscribing via feedburner
3. Listening via the Internet Archive
4. Downloading the mp3 file (23MB, mp3)
5. Listening below on the embedded player (you need quicktime)
