Tonight’s Progressive Roundtable discusses Bill Clinton’s continued attack on Bernie Sanders, Gloria Steinem’s strange remarks regarding female Bernie supporters, and Hillary’s unwillingness to release the transcripts of her Goldman Sachs speeches. Thom talks Bernie with Ben & Jerry and in tonight’s Daily Take Thom discusses how 2016 Hillary Clinton needs to listen to 2008 Hillary Clinton when it comes to our disastrous trade policies.

For tonight's Conversations with Great Minds - I'm joined by one of America's leading experts on nutrition - someone who's been a big influence on people looking to lead healthy lives - including me! Dr. Michael Greger is a licensed Medical Doctor in general practice specializing in clinical nutrition - and a founding member and fellow at the American College of Lifestyle Medicine. He's also the Director of Public Health and Animal Agriculture at the Humane Society of the United States, and the founder of the Nutrition Facts dot org blog. Dr. Greger is also the author of a number of bestselling books - including his latest "How Not to Die: Discover the Foods Scientifically Proven to Prevent and Reverse Disease.”

Mike Lux, Democracy Partners/The Progressive Revolution: How The Best In America Came To Be & Kai Newkirk, 99Rise, joins Thom. Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton are now locked in a heated battle over what it means to be a progressive. Could this battle end up deciding the democratic nominee for president?

Professor Zoltan Hajnal, Department of Political Science, University of California at San Diego (UCSD) joins Thom. Until recently - there's been no empirical research to show exactly how effectively voter ID laws actually work to suppress the vote - and how they disproportionately impact democratic voters. A new report out called "Voter Identification Laws and the Suppression of Minority Votes" used data from the annual Cooperative Congressional Election Study to compare thats with strict voter ID laws to those that allow voters without a photo ID to cast a ballot. The authors found that strict voter ID laws disproportionately impact minority votes - and that Democratic turnout drops by an estimated 8.8 percentage points in general elections when strict photo identification is in place." And that means that the GOP tactics to make it harder for citizens to vote are working - and that's not just bad news for Democrats - it's bad news for our Democracy.
