The Takeaway continues its series where we talk with voters to see what the political and economic situation feels like on the ground. With the annual Conservative Political Action Conference kicking off Thursday night, we gathered Republican voters to give their opinion on the current state of the GOP. Joining the roundtable discussion are Karen Martin, organizer of the Spartanburg Tea Party; Brad Cranston, pastor at Heritage Baptist Church and member of Iowa Baptists for Biblical Values; William Smith, a conservative blogger for FirstInTheNation.US; and Lisa, a Ron Paul Supporter out of Michigan.
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
