Coalition politics and bipartisanship in American history

David Lawrence argues that cross party coalitions are a longstanding, legitimate tradition in U S politics. He cites 1911 Republican insurgents, George Norris reforms, Roosevelt era independence, and Barkley’s stand to show party discipline is flexible.
