Jeff Thomas, author of “Virginia Politics & Government in a New Century, The Price of Power” (see my review here) — a book, as I’ve previously noted, that should be read by every member of the Virginia General Assembly, as well as by Gov. McAuliffe and by all 2017 Virginia political candidates – has started a Podcast series on topics related to Virginia politics. Recently, Jeff sat down with me to discuss Virginia politics, citizen engagement, netroots activism, the state of our democracy, etc. Check out our discussion below, and thanks to Jeff for putting this podcast together!
