Bringing It to the Table It all began with a conversation over dinner. Julie Winokur's teenage son told her she was the most intolerant person he knew, a shocker for a writer and documentary film producer. But Winokur decided her son was right, that she wasn't listening to people who didn't agree with her politically. A lot of planning and one successful Kickstarter campaign later, she's launched Bring it to the Table, which aims to engage Americans in civil discourse about politics in public settings across the country.

But the President failed to provide what 27 other Alliance members have been waiting for: a re-commitment by America’s new leader to Article 5. Instead, they got a scolding.
