Explore the potential of veterans to bridge political divides in America through this 47-minute conference talk from The Aspen Institute. Delve into the critical issue of tribal polarization at its peak, contrasted with the all-time low veteran representation in Congress. Examine how veterans' unique experiences in teamwork and problem-solving under challenging conditions could be leveraged to break down divisions and improve Congressional effectiveness. Learn from speakers Rye Barcott and David Brooks as they discuss the possibility of a new wave of principled, next-generation veterans forming a cross-partisan coalition to win elections and foster collaboration in government.
