In 2016, after a life altering series of events, Dr. JJ Walcutt decided to run for president of the United States, not because she thought she would be elected, but to use her campaign as a vehicle to visit all 50 states to study citizen innovation, which she found everywhere.

Now, her new book based on this experience, “Who the F*** wants to be President,” has just published and is available on Amazon.

JJ runs a podcast called The Nerdy Truth and interviewed me on June 6, 2020, about the kinds of innovative, citizen-driven political projects I have encountered while traveling across Europe and the Americas since 2016. You can watch the interview here.
