In the hopes of encouraging a more civil, and illuminating, discourse, here is another episode of William F. Buckley, Jr.’s “Firing Line”.
In 1984, President Reagan won every state except Minnesota (and the District of Columbia), though the Democratic Party was still dominant in the House of Representatives and on the state level. In this two-part episode, Buckley, along with guests Mark J. Green, Murray Kempton, and Richard Brookhiser examine the prospects of the Democrats in June of 1984.
Here is Part II:
Until next Friday.
