Hungry for Answers

The Brian Lehrer Show | Mar 31, 2010

We continue our 2006 election series, “30 Issues in 30 Days” with Issue Three: Is World Hunger America’s Responsibility? We’ll be joined by New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof, and the winner of his essay contest, Casey Parks, back from Africa. Also: a day-after look at the first gubernatorial debate; a discussion about the links between the development of luxury and affordable housing; listeners' calls about the National Intelligence Estimate.
