Host Lisa Morrison spends an hour with Bloomington resident Gretchen Clearwater, a candidate for Congress vying for the Democratic nomination in the upcoming primary for a chance to unseat ninth district Republican incumbent Mike Sodrel. Learn about Clearwater’s positions on the war in Iraq, education, health care, and employment as she details her travels and conversations with area citizens. You’ll also learn quite a bit about Gretchen as a person not just a candidate; for example, Clearwater spent her childhood years in Nigeria, where her parents served as missionaries for the Lutheran Church. She earned a degree in history from Indiana University in 1974 and has lived in southern Indiana ever since.
