Former Majority Leaders in the Senate

Overnight I listened to an interesting programme on C-SPAN Radio which involved an event at the Bipartisan Policy Center, honouring former Senators Howard Baker and Bob Dole. It gives some useful insights into the working of the US Senate. As I spent a considerable time yesterday writing about the recent history of the Senate and it's leadership - this was a particularly well timed broadcast. A number of key leaders attended and spoke. Although I am in Washington at the moment, I was able to listen to it in exactly the same way as I do when I am at home -3500 miles away - on my iPhone through using the C-SPAN App. The video can be viewed at http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/Bakera
