Episode 10 asks the question: What's the role of our military in a democracy? And why did the founders of our country consider a standing army as one of the greatest potential threats to liberty? In this episode, we hear from Dr. Shawn Healey, PhD of iCivics (1:07) on why it's important to have civilian control of the military. And Kori Schake, the Senior Fellow and Director of Foreign and Defense Policy Studies at the American Enterprise Institute shares her perspectives on the topic (7:33). Finally, Vet the Vote coalition member Chris Purdy of Veterans For American Ideals joins us (46:02) to tell you how you can get involved in a coalition of thousands of veterans and allies who continue their service to America by upholding, defending, and advocating for human rights at home and abroad. Let's vet our democracy together.
