The American liberal-democrat delivered a lecture on the US presidential elections and the future of liberal democracy to an audience of prominent parliamentarians, media and members of the public before taking questions.
Howard Dean has recently launched a project called "The Future of Political Parties" in Washington DC. "As with any type of organisation, political parties must change with the times and grow to better serve the people they aim to represent," said the former Chairman of the US Democrats.
During the lecture, Howard Dean added: "US Democrats, Liberal International and ALDE are politically as close as they can be."
