Gautum Mukunda Interview Episode 71

In this interview Matt Crawford speaks with author Gautum Mukunda about his book, Picking Presidents. What do we base our choice for President on? How do we know that when really tested, our candidate will do what's best and what we would desire? Mukunda uses his analysis of filtered and unfiltered to measure how steady at the helm these leaders will be and ask the all-important question: are they up to the job?  From Truman to Buchanan, Andrew Johnson to Theodore Roosevelt, Picking Presidents lays out the framework and walks us through those times to prove out the formula. A great and exciting read that is hard to put down and even harder to stop thinking about after you do.
