Distrust of Government

Apparently, most Americans don't trust the Federal government very much. In fact, the latest numbers say almost four out of five of us don't believe the Feds will do the right thing when it comes to just about any decision. But does the electorate take a similarly dim view of state government and local officials?
Wednesday morning at 9, you can tell us. Join host Dan Moulthrop for a conversation about what this massive amount of distrust actually means, and whether it's simply as American as apple pie. Beth Donovan, Deputy Washington Editor, NPR
