00:00Do we want a party that is old rich and out of touch or do we want a party led
00:06by young people like Maelot and Zoran? Voters are looking, young people and
00:15voters of all ages are done with the status quo of the Democratic Party.
00:19They're done. They are looking for people that are going to be for them and not
00:24the special interest that brought us to this place. Do you guys want that type of
00:27Democratic Party? Because now people are waking up to the bullshit. People are
00:36now waking up to the bullshit peddled by the status quo establishment and there
00:40is a massive power vacuum coming in our politics. Our establishment has become so
00:45geriatric they are literally dying in power. The question is who the hell is
00:51going to replace them? Is it going to be younger versions of the people that are
00:54in power right now that are going to make our problems way worse for years to
00:58come, for decades to come and and only make it worse? Or are we actually going to
01:02elect a truly new generation? What do you guys want to do? You want a new
01:09generation? Let me ask you this. Do we want to be a party that bows to special
01:19interests and big corporations? Or do we want to be a party that fights for working
01:26people? Do we want a party that poll tests its issues to figure out what side of the
01:32fucking 50-yard line it's on? Or no, simply ask itself, hmm, what is right or wrong here?
01:39Right? Because the idea that you're going to be progressive on stopping kids from
01:43getting gunned down in their schools and their communities by gun violence, but not
01:47talk about the kids that are getting bombed in Palestine is bullshit. Right?
01:56Do we want a party that is old, rich and out of touch? Or do we want a party led
02:07by young
02:08people like Maelot and Zoran? Do we want a party that's led by cowards or a party that's
02:16led by truly courageous leaders who, when they are voting, ask themselves, well, which special
02:21interest is this going to piss off? Because I really don't want a pack to spend a million
02:25dollars against me in my primary or for Lockheed Martin to not give me my $5,000 corporate
02:30pack check, but instead ask themselves, what is the right fucking thing to do? What do we
02:35want to be? Making the right decision is only difficult if you don't have the right values,
02:46period. It's not complicated, guys. It's really not. It's not.
02:51Our party should not be one that says, well, you know, it's really bad when all these kids
02:56are dying from gun violence, but acts like they can't tell what side of the 50-yard line they're
03:00on when there is an act of genocide being committed with arms from the United States.
