Radio Nation's Laura Flanders leads "Live from Main Street," progressive discussion groups in Denver. This discussion focuses on regular peoples' place in politics and how policy alternatives, like green energy, developed by grass-roots organizers over years have now been adopted by politicians. These panelists believe that the progressive movement has made Barack Obama, not the other way around.
