Venture capitalist Tim Draper is promoting a ballot initiative that would split California into six different states, including the state of Silicon Valley that would encompass the Bay Area and stretch down the coast to Monterey. Draper joins us to talk about his idea and why he believes that California, as currently constituted, has become “nearly ungovernable.”
