Description

In polls, two-thirds of Americans say they are “tired of seeing the same candidates in presidential elections,” and only a quarter are satisfied with the two-party system. Some politicians are trying to take advantage, both with and without a party’s support. They’re not going to win the election–so what’s the attraction? And could they play spoiler for the main parties?


John Prideaux hosts with Charlotte Howard and Idrees Kahloon. They’re joined by The Economist’s James Astill, Adam O’Neal and Daniella Raz.
