On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about President Obama's first State of the Union address. If you voted for or actually hit the streets for Obama in the 2008 election, are you still with him? Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. Which part of your agenda do you see him having moved on in his first year in office? It's Your Call, with Sandip Roy and you.
Guests:

Sasha Abramsky, journalist, author and a fellow at the New York City-based think tank Demos
Click to Listen: What's the State of the Obama Coalition?
When callers complained about the growing length of the breadlines, Sasha Abramsky said it's just America's typical "amnesia" - we forget how much worse it felt to have Bush in office (though maybe now your bed is a park bench, try to forget that). An appropriate music tune for the break would have been Monty Python's "ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE"!
