John Dean Wants You To Call Him

Join the ACLU of Southern California as it hosts former Nixon White House counsel and bestselling author John Dean for a lively and interesting conference call tomorrow, October 4 from 4-5pm PST (7-8pm EST).

His new book, “Broken Government: How Republican Rule Destroyed the Legislative, Executive and Judicial Branches,” bashes the principles of the “unitary executive theory” and suggests what we can do to bring back America’s system of checks and balances.

Call in to (888) 346-5716 at 4pm PST Thursday, October 4, to connect. Calls are free, operator moderated and open to the public.

On our call he will address the question that he is so often asked at his speaking engagements: What, if anything, can politically moderate citizens do to combat the extremism, authoritarianism, incompetence, and increasing focus on divisive wedge issues of so many of today’s conservative politicians?

He’ll then take your questions! Air America’s “Young Turks” host Cenk Uygur moderates.
