Terrific interview! Three sharp, articulate, passionate women in a setting that allows them the complete freedom to tell it like it really is. A setting that lets them discuss the issues that matter for a solid uninterrupted hour. This is riveting stuff. This is the way it should be! What a stark contrast to the slop that the lame-stream media dishes up to us 24/7.

Thank you, alexa for posting this as I likely would have missed one amazing hour otherwise.

It is definitely worth it to take the time to watch this interview.

Wow. As a 58 year old female, it was especially exciting to see younger, intelligent, informed women speak so articulately.

Cenk surprised me by just asking questions, then sitting back and shutting up and let each woman speak without interrupting them! Bravo, Cenk, for letting each of them have her say without any condescending commentary or telling any of them what he thinks they should have for political opinions! That's impressive!

Each of these women is articulate, knowledgeable, and charming without being cloying. None stammered and hemmed and hawed or went "ummmm..." "aaahhh" like she was afraid to express her opinion or wondered if what she said should be tailored to a specific audience (I love their confidence!) but charged ahead - talking at fast speeds, so listen fast or watch the video two or three times!

I saw the video of Rosario Dawson introducing Bernie a few weeks ago, was impressed by her intelligence and humor, so it was nice to see her continue that same characteristic in this interview.

If any of these three women decided to run for a Democratic (or Democratic Socialist) office, I'd likely vote for them (with the caveat I'd have to find out about all their political positions first, but I do that with every candidate).

I urge anyone to grab a cuppa and sit back and watch the entire video. Really, it's SO worth the time! (I wish they would have gone on speaking for another hour, at least.)
