The New American Dream Radio Show -- Tonight's Guests: Sam Smith & Tom Sterner

SAM SMITH, editor of the online Progressive Review, has been editing alternative journals since 1964, longer than almost anyone in the country. Before moving to Maine in 2009, he covered Washington during nine of America's presidencies — as long as almost anyone in the capital.
