CONTROVERSY UP CLOSE: AMERICA SPEAKS OUT
American's love for expressing their opinions is what makes it a great country. The freedom of speech will ring loud and clear on today's show as America speaks out! Geraldo Rivera is here to talk about his new book and immigration issues in America today. Radio personality, Michael Shawn, will also speak on how racism and anti-immigration has affected him personally. Political pundits Rob Nelson and Rachel Alexander are back to round out our political panel and discuss the issues with Montel. Stem cell research is a cutting edge medical science, but is mired in controversy. We'll meet a family who was able to help their son through umbilical cord stem cells. Their doctor is here to share how they were able to help battle sickle-cell anemia through this technology.
