How the Democratic Party Lost Its Way and What It Means for This Election

One challenge facing Democrats is securing the working-class vote. The party is increasingly viewed as serving the interests of the educated and the elite. Author and historian Timothy Shenk addresses how this came to be in his new book "Left Adrift", which examines change in the Democratic Party over the past 50 years. The author speaks to Michel Martin about its impact on the upcoming election.
