Americana - 25/04/2010

Presented by Matt Frei from Washington, DC. Matt Frei talks to Republican legend Newt Gingrich about the calls for change coming from outside the current administration. At the same time, new cracks are forming from within the Democratic Party. North Carolina First party member Chuck Stone explains why he's just as angry as those from the Tea-Party at the other end of the political spectrum. Also conversation with Richard Clarke, America's first terrorism czar. Up for discussion - just how serious is the threat from home-grown terrorists and what kind of anger is brewing inside the borders of the United States? And to calm the tattered nerves of this nation, Matt Frei takes time to taste some of America's most beloved comfort foods, the sweet potato pie, collard greens and macaroni and cheese of American 'soul food'.
