Michael and Us: Tracy Flick for President

We finally watch one of our most requested movies: the political parable ELECTION (1999), which presents a vision of American politics circa 1999 as represented by three student candidates and one faculty power-broken in a high school election. PLUS: Neera Tanden, the Golden Globes, and what happens to culture when the zeitgeist is taken away?Subscribe to our Patreon for exclusive episodes: https://www.patreon.com/michaelandus (https://www.patreon.com/michaelandus)
