In American politics, candidates often say they care about kitchen-table issues and working-class voters. Yet, if you look at both parties’ candidates, you’ll find they are more alike than you think: the same five universities and four careers. Jane discusses how American politics keeps folks with a 9-to-5 out of the race with Nicholas Carnes and Noam Lupu, co-authors of “Keeping Workers Off the Ballot: How Democracy Undermines Working-Class Representation.”
