Sitting down with a former Secretary of State

James Baker not only served as U.S. Secretary of State.. He's been Chief of Staff twice, Treasury Secretary, and Commerce Secretary. Rice University's Baker Institute for Public Policy was named in his honor. I got a chance to discuss the institute and other topics with Baker on the eve of its 25th anniversary gala. President Barack Obama was the special guest. The focus of this story was the lack of civility in current politics. Baker and I also spoke about his longtime friend and former boss, President George H.W. Bush. The two regularly go out for oysters.
