This week on DecodeDC, Dick Meyer and Dr. Anthony King discuss American elections and how they're viewed abroad.
King is a British professor of comparative government and the author of "Running Scared: Why America’s Politicians Campaign Too Much and Govern Too Little," He questions some of the fundamental assumptions Americans make about what an election is supposed to look like and how long it should last.
