They discuss the upcoming US elections, and the elections in UK. Dean has been without pay consulting with Nick Clegg, and he is feeling confident that he might win.

Excellent interview, not argumentive as so many in our media are.

1. Recommended not just for Howard, but for Frost as well

Frost is getting on, but he showed, or rather, reminded our media that one can conduct
an interesting interview without getting in the face of his guest and shouting them
down at every turn. Except for Rachel Maddow and Comedy Central's Jon Stewart, the
current trend in the American media seems to want to make a star of the one conducting
the interview instead of the one invited to be interviewed.

2. Good point. The interviewer often wants to be the star...

and dominate. I have almost quit turning on cable TV news at all.

It was well done by both.

3. oops, yes I do know how to spell

"argumentative"

4. Aljazeera is an interesting station.........

would actually prefer the news stories on their channel to most of what's available. Thank you for posting this.

5. I love the fact Howard Dean is a voluntary Liberal Democrat activist

And that he has a strong vision of Clegg becoming Prime Minister. What an endorsement!

6. Agreed. He seems respected there more than here.

at least by party leaders.

Good interview.
