Ken Stern, Former CEO of NPR and Author of "Republican Like Me: How I Left the Liberal Bubble and Learned to Love the Right," joins The Hive. Stern, Kristen Scholer, and Jon Kelly discuss the possible demise of the American two-party system and whether the Independent Party may be able to make a run in the next election.
