We are here early this week - for Election Day! And we bring you a panel that looks at elections, and Presidents, from American history, putting this year’s choice in perspective. Gordon Wood, the greatest historian of the early Republic; Steven Smith, an expert on political institutions, on The Federalist, on Lincoln; Paul Grimstad, authority on great American thinkers and writers like Emerson and Thoreau; and of course, Professor Amar, weigh in on all sorts of questions and aspects of this year’s crucial choice. And we have an audience for this live-to-tape podcast - an EverScholar audience - who asks questions on the mind of many. Here are perspectives you won’t gain anywhere else. CLE credit is available for lawyers and judges from podcast.njsba.com.

Professor Amar, I’ve been listening for a year or so, but this was the first time I’ve ever felt the need to comment. Listening to your Election Day podcast, you had 3 academicians, who ARE elites, pondering what the citizenry sees in Donald Trump. You could have a clear concise answer by having a truck driver on your show. I work in academia as well (and out of conscience voted for Clarence the dog from YouTube); however, I do understand; he speaks the language of the common people
