A Nation Engaged: Power And The Presidency

KCUR 89.3
More than a hundred Kansas Citians joined KCUR and NPR for 'A Nation Engaged,' a project aimed at sparking conversations during the early days of the Trump administration by combining reported pieces with original stories and show segments.

As President Trump approaches the 100-day milestone of his administration, KCUR teamed up with NPR's for the latest A Nation Engaged conversation, moderated by Up To Date host Steve Kraske and NPR's Southwest correspondent, John Burnett. This time, we asked Kansas City-area citizens how much power they think an American president should be able to wield.

When I host Up To Date each morning at 9, my aim is to engage the community in conversations about the Kansas City area’s challenges, hopes and opportunities. I try to ask the questions that listeners want answered about the day’s most pressing issues and provide a place for residents to engage directly with newsmakers.
