Zocalo hosts Eric Liu at the National Center...
Democrats recently have been working overtime to get reacquainted with the language of faith. But is the salvation of progressive politics truly to be found in the Bible?
Before we rush to do keyword searches of the great religious texts, we should return to first questions: What is the purpose of progressivism? What, beyond defending the edifice of the Great Society and New Deal, is the promise of progressivism in this age of change?
Eric Liu -- former speechwriter and policy adviser to President Clinton and author of "Guiding Lights: The People Who Lead Us Toward Our Purpose in Life"-- speaks on the deeper needs, fears and hopes that must inform a renewal of progressive politics.
