During these two hours I guest host "The Leslie Marshall Show."

I'm joined by Political Strategist Brad Bannon and callers as we discuss the following:

-The speeches yesterday by Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton at their joint event in New Hampshire where Sanders formally endorsed Clinton

-How much of an effect Bernie Sanders had on the Democratic platform

-The specific policy proposals Hillary Clinton laid out yesterday including national guidelines on the use of force by police officers, a $15/hr minimum wage, campaign finance reform, her new debt-free college plan, and strengthening voting rights

-Donald Trump's short list of potential VP choices, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of each choice

-President Obama's remarks on uniting the country while he was attending the memorial service for the five Dallas Police officers killed last week

Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns.
Brad also writes a weekly blog for EpicTimes.com and is a lecturer in Political Science at Salem State University in Salem, Massachusetts.
