#AskGwen: Is the Political System Broken?

Is the political system so divisive that it's beyond repair? Gwen tackles that question in her latest chat. "I love politics. I'm a political junkie. I think it's really interesting and important. I think it affects people's lives, but occasionally I watch the bad side of politics," Gwen says. "Most of the politicians I've met really mean to do good things."
