with all the news you need and some insight that won't hurt either. Let
us know what you think of the show, the website and, well, anything

Kuby has a few thoughts on Hillary's great concession speech, plus we have lots of clips for you.  What's next for Hill – VP? Governor of NY? Something else? John Nichols, Washington Correspondent for The Nation will weigh in on that. Here's his latest piece, well worth a read.

We would like to thank this week’s guest host Hal Sparks for joining us on American Afternoon.  You can find out more about Hal and where he is appearing by going to www.HalSparks.com. 

The talk today is going to focus on the secret meeting held between Obama and Clinton, John McCain and war with Iran.  David Bender will be Hal’s guest in HOUR ONE to discuss that meeting between Barack and Hillary and what it all might mean.  Could they have been talking about Hillary as the VP running mate?  Bender will shed some light on that issue.  David Bender is the host of Air America Radio’s “Politically Direct.” Previously he’s been the co-host of Ring of Fire with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Mike Papantonio and, most recently, was Rachel Maddow’s “political guru” on The Rachel Maddow Show.
