Writer’s Voice with Francesca Rheannon

Why does the Democratic Party struggle so much to win elections — when it isn’t losing them — despite the fact that the Republicans are so extreme? And could there be a hint in the fact that so many ordinary Americans keep losing ground economically, no matter who holds the reins of power? We talk first with Ed Burmila about his book, “Chaotic Neutral: How the Democrats Lost Their Soul in the Center.”

Then, Alissa Quart of the Economic Hardship Reporting Project tells us about her just-released new book, “Bootstrapped: Liberating Ourselves from the American Dream.”
