Welcome to the Lean to the Left podcast featuring the Dixie Dems! In this episode, hosts Bob Gatty, Arthur Hill from North Carolina, and Robert Thompson from Georgia discuss politics with special guest, former presidential candidate Jason Palmer.

A successful venture capitalist, Palmer says President Biden should be replaced by a younger candidate and shares insights on his new initiative, Together!, developed to reduce political polarization and empower young voters.

The discussion delves into the goals of registering a million young voters, endorsing 20 bipartisan candidates, and tackling legislative issues across key battleground states. The conversation also covers the political landscape in North Carolina, Georgia, and South Carolina.

Tune in for an engaging dialogue on the future of American politics and how young voters can shape it.
