Paul Johnson is a former mayor of Phoenix and Democratic candidate for governor.

But these are not why we invited him to join the Think Tank. Now an independent, he is also one of the most thoughtful observers of the state of our politics. He’s given a lot of thought to what is wrong with our politics and what it would take to fix it.

Are our institutions irreparably damaged?
What is wrong with our politics?
How did we get there? How did it happen?
How do we fix it?

Tune in to this week’s Think Tank. We are convinced you will find the discussion thoughtful and provocative.
