We look ahead to this week’s agenda with the help of Reihan Salam, fellow at the New America Foundation and the author of, “Grand New Party: How Republicans Can Win the Working Class and Save the American Dream,” along with the BBC’s Rob Watson. We discuss Iran, where a deadline for the government to comply with a U.N. mandate to send its uranium away for processing is fast approaching. They’ll also look at what’s next for U.S. security (and politics) after a Nigerian man unsuccessfully tried to detonate a home-made bomb on a passenger plane, and what’s next in health care reform.
