Lots of so-called political provocateurs either self-censor or end up muzzled by whoever signs the checks. Not so in the case of Amy Goodman, longtime host of Pacifica Radio's Democracy Now! UIC welcomes the lefty gadfly for today's discussion, which highlights some of the key motivating factors in this year's presidential contest. According to Goodman, race, gender, and economics are at the heart of nearly every development, from wonky exit polls to McCain's houses gaffe and Hillary CryGate. Lapel flags and Rick Warren be damned — this is the debate we should be watching.
