Lesson on politics and government

Hi all.  Has anyone put together a lesson set that deals with issues of politics and government in the PRC and beyond?  Or, more basically, what lessons are out there that folks can point to as having content that touches on these subjects?  At one point, I studied an upper intermediate lesson entitled "1949" and really enjoyed it because I learned how to speak about political parties and historical events.  (Would have been useful that time in a Beijing cab when the driver asked if I was a Republican or Democrat.  It took me like ten minutes to figure out what he was talking about!)

Cheers,

Steve

Hi @sballa, here's an upper intermediate lesson on election candidates in the U.S.  There's one floating around on the Long March as well, but I couldn't find it.
