Paul Johnson | What’s Right With America

More from this show

On this episode of Keeping It Civil, host Henry Thompson speaks with Paul Johnson, American politician.  Paul was the mayor of Phoenix, Arizona from 1990-1994, and a U.S. State Department delegate to Saudi Arabia and Poland. Paul hosts his own podcasts, The Optimistic American, and New Frontiers, on the latter of which Henry is frequently a guest.


This week the topic of conversation is Paul’s new book, co-authored by  Larry Aldrich, entitled What’s Right With America… And How We Can Keep It That Way! Henry and Paul discuss American values like freedom, justice, and liberty, and reasons why Americans should be optimistic about their nation, and ways to empower individuals to continue to make America great.
