Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer and the other “Left, Right & Center” panelists discuss Mario Cuomo, the former governor of New York who said he wanted to be remembered as a man who tried. Also, is Jeb Bush going to be our next president?

The United States officially ended its combat role in Afghanistan this week. Are we really out? What is our legacy? How will the Boston Marathon bombing reflect on our time there? Should New York police officers turn their back on their mayor? Our panelists look ahead at 2015.

Scheer is joined by host Matt Miller, Rich Lowry of the National Review on the right, and special guest Josh Barro of The New York Times.
