It’s been a while since a recovering Marxist joined the Remnant, but Ruy Teixeira, political demographer and senior fellow at American Progress, is here to fill that void. In predictably wonky fashion, he and Jonah examine the future of the Democratic Party and how the progressive movement has changed in recent years.

Judis’ The Emerging Democratic Majority- Ruy’s The Optimistic Leftist- Ruy: “Eyes Wide Shut”- Ruy: “How to Fix the Democratic Brand”- The Remnant with Francis Fukuyama- David Shor and the Democrats- Jonah: “That Shor Sounds Good”- Tyler Cowen on the Turing test- The Remnant with Elaine Kamarck
