Iran Nuclear Talks; Jeffrey Sachs; Xi'an Famous Foods

The Brian Lehrer Show | Mar 3, 2015

Our series on local family businesses continues with Jason Wang, the co-owner of Xi'an Famous Foods. Plus: what's at stake in the nuclear talks with Iran, and what Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's speech today means for the deal; Columbia's Jeffrey Sachs on measurable sustainable development; a look at the big changes on the way for college education; and as the Republican-controlled Congress looks like it might split with the State Department over its Iran policy, Princeton's Julian Zelizer puts the question of whether "politics stops at the water's edge" in a historical context.
