Cenk Uygur on Cspan Yesterday (video replay)

Submitted by Citizen Of Earth on Sun, 05/01/2016 - 9:15am

Answering callers questions. Yeah, I know, Cspan callers *wacko*. Quite a few called in to try to put Cenk in his place: "You bleeding heart Liburals and that Communist Sanders are ruining my country" type calls.

Cenk did a good job of trying to educate 'those that don't want to know'. Most of the questions related to Bernie's Campaign.

I don't think the Cspan host knew anything about Cenk. She was nice but seemed a bit surprised at Cenk's delivery style. He said "ass" on CSpan (opps, can he say that?) :-).

Cenk did say the "Repub party is completely corrupt and the Dem party is 80% corrupt". Not sure that has ever been said on Cspan before. Haahaha. I would like to see Cenks list of good Dems. I would put it at a smaller percent, but whatever.

Anyway, I enjoyed it (45 mins).

the benefit of the doubt, thinking he might have met some honest democrats, but the only one I could think of was Bernie, and as far as I know, Warren.
Al Franken has been my biggest disappointment this election cycle.

Then the ones that endorsed Bernie - Merkley, Tulsi Gabbard, Grayson ... I think there are a couple more. But that's about it.

she's way too soft. Also...

Warren voted as a Republican for many years, saying, "I was a Republican because I thought that those were the people who best supported markets". According to Warren, she began to vote Democratic in 1995 because she no longer believed that to be true, but she states that she has voted for both parties because she believed that neither party should dominate.

Raul Grijalva who was the first to endorse Bernie, followed by Keith Ellison. They came out early when no one else would.

          He is articulate and he responds to the actual questions asked. Obviously he could not be a politician or a politician's sycophant as he never panders to power. Listening to him was refreshing, as usual.

Good to see the issues explained to some who had no clue by Cenk. He did a great job in that interview.

as easy as it looks for some people; their aha moment never comes. It has something to do with the messenger.

Yea, Warren fell off her pedestal when she waffled out of endorsing Sanders. Waiting until after the convention to make any endorsements?

Fat lot of good that will do. Sorry, Liz, day late and a dollar short.

Not sure why you don't see the embedded player. Browser blocking scripts maybe? I'll add the link to the essay body.

Thanks for posting this. I looked for it on youtube but it's not there. They don't want us to know.
