Right now, Jim Lehrer is hosting a discussion with Paul Begala and Michael Gerson about the presidential transition and its implications for foreign policy decision-making in the next Administration.

You can watch a live stream of the event currently taking place in Washington, DC here.

They will spend time discussing the Global Plum Book. From the Center for US Global Engagement:

The Center for U.S. Global Engagement today released its Global Plum Book identifying the 100 key leadership positions that will shape the next Administration’s strategy for global development and diplomacy. Accompanying the report are “First Steps” for how the transition team can successfully translate the pledges of Candidate Obama – the most in-depth and far reaching global development platform of any candidate in history – into the policies of President Obama.

UPDATE: The discussion has concluded, but here’s a video of the event
