It's time for the elders to move aside.
Well past time.
Oh hey didn't expect to see your comment here! But yeah we have a gerentocracy they need to step down and endorse young candidates
Elderly
Way past time.
pelosi and her mafia need to go
I @ 72, stand and applaud! WE need to listen to you and your generation. You’ll be running this country tomorrow, and we as older folks better listen. You’re the next voice.
Absolutely my dad always said for normal people older generations need to step down for the young to take over so they can earn money while the older people can retire I'm not saying push them out but give young people a chance as older people were young once
I'm also in my seventies. I hope I live a long life for many reasons... but I hope to live long enough to see this young man go as far as he can in politics to make a real difference!
I agree. voting in at 70. I am very impressed with Gen Zer's. David Hogg, Maxwell Frost and just a couple. Keep it coming. we need you!
you are old....why should anyone listen to you
Thank you for this MSNBC and David. This made me realize I’m not too young to have my voice heard. I’m officially applying to become a member of the DNC representing the state of Florida.
Yes!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽As a Floridian, you have my support to get the DNC to the actual left and course correct starting now! ❤
I love this! I've been thinking of doing the same in my state, but thinking and doing are two different things. You inspired me to go join in this work as soon as possible! Thank you 💗
Pellosi learning nothing from this Election and taking away leadership position from younger and Vibrant Aoc , giving it away to most geriatric and even sick members of Dem party is infuriating.
@@georgewashington3555Yup, she let Dianne Feinstein dotter for years. She couldn't talk Katie Porter & Barbara Lee from entering a race they wouldn't win. Now they're out of politics.
You know he's also from Florida, right? He co-founded March For Our Lives with other survivors of a huge shooting at their high school.
Hes young and energetic...and he really has plans...NOT CONCEPTS OF A PLAN 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
LOL, I see what you did there. LOL
@@StandardX1-k8w 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thx...I do get a few off once in a while 🤣🤣🤣
🏆
yes but the elders need to work WITH them in roles of guidance and experience
When Nancy Pelosi blocked AOC from becoming the ranking member member of the house oversight committee by supporting Gerry Connolly, a fellow senior-aged politician, that’s when I knew for certain that these dinosaurs needed to go.
It is past time!!😊
pelosi didnt block anything
aoc didnt have the votes
aoc is also not a real dem
I am 71 years old. I support David. He makes some serious points.
I'm an "older Democrat" and it's time for us to endorse some of these young people like David Hogg, AOC etc. It's time. It's past time.
It’s been overdue since 2016
lol they're two- bit narcissistic grifters looking for an easy buck. How dim can you be?
Sometimes you have to make hard decisions. We need new blood in our party. The old ones are blocking progress, we need to move forward to the future.
It's not just that. A lot of changes are also needed in the news media, whether on TV or online or anywhere else. MSNBC has a lot to answer for. They have been leading the pro-corporate, centrist charge for years. The so-called "progressive" news network has been anything but. Now that they're in deep financial trouble, I expect they'll finally change their ways, but only because they're forced to.
I really admire this kid, David Hogg! I can tell he's a doer in life! We need more young people like him in the party! There is hope in 2025!
I like these conversations with upcoming dems, progressives etc.
They have much to say. They deserve a voice. This is their future too.
Nobody will block Trump. He is an American cultural icon, and people adore and look up to the big American style, just like people looked up to and adored the British when they ruled the seas. Every culture has or had its iconoclasts-Italy had Leonardo da Vinci. Germany had Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. India had Buddha. France had Voltaire. We should also learn to applaud those who choose the big American style, even if we have decided not to live so large ourselves. For example, my neighbor recently purchased a brand new 2025 Cadillac Escalade gimme gimme mobile. Instead of knocking her for it, I decided to go next door and congratulate her for her smart shopping decision. She told me that Santa said that she needed to treat herself to something special this holiday season, especially after having recently divorced her husband of 8 years. However, her psychic told her to wait on the botox injections and tummy tuck. The conversation was brief, yet, very enlightening. I was extremely surprised when she ended the conversation by telling me that if only more of our people bought such grand and sturdy automobiles, then, just maybe we would be able to end our reliance on mid-east oil. I was very surprised because it is a rare thing to hear a fellow citizen make such an astute and accurate political observation. Anywho, I went back to my retrofitted Winnebago with solar panel and wind turbine and cranked up the old black and white Sony tv with rabbit ears to see if I could catch a rerun of "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous". Soon after, I faded into the land of nod and had a very vivid dream where I met with our Elon in D.C. and he offered to equip my outhouse with his Tesla rockets at a 25 percent shoppers' discout and shoot me out into outerspace.
It’s about time they listen to us. The same old people in leadership won’t work.
I agree. David expressed himself well. There is no need to push older politicians out. You have to come to the table first.
Dems arent the alt right. They dont need to attack like the alt right.
Or we just cross party lines
No one likes this kid...
He's right. With the same old hodgepodge nothing will change!
Hogg isn't the only young person in the country.
The problem with the dems is not age. It's ideology. The age issue didn't help Kamala.
@@TeddyMonka-d1g
Age and ideology has nothing to do with it.
Dems arent the alt right. Lol
@@TeddyMonka-d1gI don’t think Harris’s platforms were bad by any means. If anything her plan to address price gouging, progressive tax plan, etc would have done more for everyday Americans than Trump’s policies.
The issue is that the 2024 race was won not by the issues, as I’ve learned in recent weeks, the majority of voters didn’t even know the issues/platforms addressed by either candidate.
Essentially the election was won by marketing and promises. It was won from the podium. And the Dems have had a problem since Obama of candidates with charisma and an ability to be relatable to the core demographics of America.
And while I hate to say it, we may want to rethink a female candidate as president. We’ve swung and missed twice. It doesn’t seem like something America is ready for or frankly anyone that Independents and GOP voters will swing for.
We also need to do as he says and reinvest in getting to the heartland more readily. We’re out of touch with the issues there and we need to start listening.
His dad works for the FBI
So good to see a young leader standing up to the OG. I have donated to the cause. This is what we need. 💙🙏🏼🎶✌🏼
You better SPEAK David! 👏🏾 I’m hearing wisdom , insight, and vision far beyond his years. We’d all better listen.
Agree 100% that there is a mental health crisis and loneliness crisis in this country. So glad to hear this is coming to the attention of people seeking political office.
The party and the news media are not ready to have a real conversation about the needs and suffering of men. You'll notice that the hosts avoided it completely.
@@jcharles8801 Men need to take some responsibility for their mental health and work to improve instead of pointing fingers. It sounds like you're not ready for the conversation. I've had depression for most of my life and I've had to work hard to just get through the days, let alone getting ahead of it. It's my responsibility to take note and change course when my mood dips, to take the medication I'm prescribed, and most importantly I'm responsible for not putting my trauma on other people.
I am proud of david. He has come a long way.
Yes....DAVID HOGG...for Vice Chair in the Dem chair...he brings more than his AGE....full in for David....and I am 75. IT IS TIME....
💯
he's got good sense and he brings the receipts. Of course, that doesn't persuade the MAGA crowd either.
I'm just glad David is old enough to run for stuff. I thought he was a better choice than a huge number of experienced politicians, when he was still in HS. I'm in my 40's and would rather support him than many of the people who have been wasting time in office.
Same!
David, you have my vote...
Good for you, young man!!!! You have my vote when you need it.
Thank you, David. As a retired school teacher, you have my full support.
He's got MY SUPPORT!
6:31 David has a point about "investing" at the local level. It is what the Republicans have been doing since the day Obama was elected : Putting money and candidates into "local" elections - starting with school boards and county commissions, working up to state wide offices.
And now even the ballot counters/certifiers...
David is spot on. We need to be seen working for the people in tangible ways.
Dems have been. Biden was the most pro-worker, pro-average citizen potus we've had since Johnson. But the media doesn't cover this. Even those who try to stay informed via other sources can't name more than 2 or 3 major things he did even though there are dozens.
Dems need to get out of the pockets of corporations and billionaires, retire the gerontocracy, and run on a progressive platform.
I was royally PO'd @ Pelosi with her recent disrespect for AOC ! NANCY NEEDS TO BOW OUT, at least these young people fully are aware of the changes needed and have the intelligence to do better for the future of our country. When I Can I contribute to their endeavors.❤
I'm going to be 80 , God willing, this coming September. I'm old, I'm on the way out, and even as I might be able to apply some words of wisdom, people like David are the ones that are going to be here in 30 years and will be dealing with the world WE leave them and that world has a whole bunch of problems. The worship of celebrity, wealth, the accumulation of things and "stuff", the making it OK to use others to lie and cheat to get what we want, the lack of consideration for the very planet that houses us, the planet that is our home, the planet that is the ONLY place we can live, has made a very difficult future for people like David.
Young , smart, bright, aware, yes WOKE people (woke means AWARE) that want to get into the mess and work to make their world better need to take their place and make their voices heard, and WE old people need to get out of the way and the young will take the reigns. The problem is there are so many people with 5 to maybe 12 years left here that "don't have enough" and they truly think they can "take it with them". The greedy, corrupt, souls need to move aside.
David is again I loved this conversation!
Mr. Hogg is one to watch. I will be cheering him on!
and just think of the horror he experienced that places him in this crucial position. he has gone from a traumatized child to an effective adult. bravo
And I'll never forget the harassment by that sicko Marjorie TG. David is leading the way. 👏
Let's go. Time for a new beginning.
Absolutely 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯 💯
Please save our country!! We need you more than you know!!!!
Well said, David Hogg. I wish you much success.
David Hogg needs to go home and stay out of American politics! He’s part of the problem ..
The more I hear from this young man the more I can appreciate his eant to.push the country forward
David Hogg has the right ideas and I hope the Democratic party has the sense to listen to what he has to say and act on it.
I hope he wins he is a hundred percent right
We need more people like David Hogg. Perhaps he will be the champion leader who symbolizes a fresh start for American democracy. Young ppl are our best hope for the future of America. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hope he gets the job need major push for single payer healthcare system and free daycare for working families.
We will never get there until voters feel like the party is looking out for them, and represents them. Having minority members is fine, but they need to be able to communicate with the voters. Do a UA-cam search for House minority leader Hakeem Jeffries and post-election comments. You'll see what I mean.
I love this dude and his movement
respect, mr. hogg.
I do not know who gets to vote for these positions. I, at 71 who moved to retire in west Kentucky 2006, am all in for GenZ, David Hogg and the basic idea being underscored here in this video. We must think clear and thorough and live in 2024, not 1999. Innovation and strength are paramount.
Frankly, we need the innovation and strength of GenZ right now, Gen Alpha mindful and Millennial savvy. Also, issues need more mobility. Also we have a major problem with state governments being held hostage to special interests and 19th century thinking. This is not good. I have to be mindful that the leadership at the DNC covers national, state, local, and territories. Wherever we have elections, participation across generations is an imperative; especially in the 21st century. Legacy fetters need the boot.
As with what I am seeing with GenZ, especially when elected, mentoring future leaders begins immediately. There are a lot of ropes to learn. Uplift tirelessly.
David, I would like very much to hear more about what you say regarding mental health and education for young men. I have always advocated for these; it is in this election cycle that I was completely stunned by how large a set of issues this is; I could barely believe the numbers, it was so staggering. The US population has become HUGE in my lifetime (having more than doubled in these past 71 years.) However, the accommodation for meaningful lives for us all has not kept pace. The quality of education has been rough for decades and the willingness to let students fall through the cracks has been rife. Appallingly rife. The obsession with forcing low wages and having low wage workers trapped in their job status is criminal. The list goes on.
We probably need 100 US Senators and 1000 US House of Representative Members.
I am an old person and I do not watch television. I catch some of these clips in video, when there is someone speaking directly to issues and across generations. Otherwise, I am proactive in social media following global news, national news, state news, and innovative voices, both elected and the diverse groups and individuals politically engaged.
I am glad to see I am here posting among many older generation voters; saying yes to the premise being put forward. 🤠
He IS exactly right! I live in Florida too and our DEM party is a JOKE! There are SO many dems here in our state and the investment is not! This young man should most definitely considered for the position he is vying for. The future of our people depends on this transition of power.
David, your STILL AMAZING!! I 👍🏽 support you, and your work. God Bless you and please 🙏🏽 ❤️ don't stop tour journey. You ARE making a difference.
Thank you for telling the truth!
Absolutely 💯 right. The same ol tired leadership wont change anything. We need bold progressive leadership.
This change has to be free from aipac influence.
the old need to help the young come into this party and stop trying to rule over the party
we all get old and will always need to teach the younger ones and give them their knowledge to keep r freedom alive
Instead of Pellosi hogging all the positions away from younger members like AOC and hogging it to Oldest most feable members of Dem party.
I hope to see David around a lot longer in the Dem Party. Age here does not matter.
But hogg is obsessed with age.
@@maryjaneshoe-fm4yrno he's not
Well, it did matter; look what happened to AOC
David has a lot of good points.
Not enough! Need to rebrand before this 12 is up! If not the red would split into 2 and leave blue as an afterthought! Obsolete!!
There needs to be a mix of generations to succeed…
Thank you. There has to be a balance.
Yes but to get that balance we have to start supporting young leaders. We're in NO danger of being short on elders.
The DNC needs to do one major thing: That is get our own tv programs, our own radio programs, and our own social media platforms that promote our message. Stop begging to be on mainstream media platforms because they are not going to give Democrats the airtime that we need to get our message out there to the masses.
Will disagree. Democrats need to stop with the Woke agenda and concentrate on bread and butter issues that cross party lines. Trouble is the indoctrination through the education system has the very vocal new generation far to the left of most people.
Mainstream media gives most airtime to Democrats. You are watching Democrats on mainstream media right now.
Exactly!!
And what exactly is the democrat message?
As long as the party cares more about rich donors than they do about working class Americans age is not going to make any difference.
I hope David gets that Vice Chair! We desperately need young leadership in this flailing party. We've got the best ideas but the worst strategy - a new perspective would be a game changer.
Good for you, David. Go for it!
This young man has the right idea. I absolutely support all the young people and wanting to get these corporate Democrats out of power. I’m in my 60s, and I’ve been frustrated with these guys for 40+ years. They really don’t get it. They keep trying to walk both sides of the aisle, the side where they get to collect a bunch of money from their sponsors, and the side where they pretend to care about Democrats and working people. They never get anything done or kind of they did I mean Biden managed to but Obama and Clinton didn’t do anything for anybody less than the billionaire Klass. Obama is the guy that signed the agreement to push our retirement age up to 67. He was the guy that was trying to sell us out. Clinton sold us out with NAFTA. Those were Republican deals that these guys went along with because they don’t support Democratic agendas. I’m really proud of these young people the way they’ve gotten educated and they’re getting in the fight and they’re smart. They have the right ideas. I keep calling my old senators, two old women older than me who have no business being back there workingin Congress. They should just take their lifetime paycheck and get the heck out of the way. They’ve done nothing for anybody but themselves.
Right on 👍🏼 David Hogg got it right because the few men in central Texas that I spoke with said the same thing about being expected to vote democrat but not believing they will help them also they don’t feel seen by us and I don’t want to lose any more elections because we have people in charge that are out of touch. Meet people where they are at is exactly how President Obama did💙💙💙💙💙🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵💙💙💙
love this guy!
David Hogg, so proud of you and your future! ❤
Wished we had a democratic organization in my county! I live in a very red state and I truly believe it is needed here!
Then move lol because very red states are red because the citizens want it that way.
How about in the neighboring counties?
@@TpS-i5w I disagree! It is because they are misinformed!
So proud of this young man!!🎉❤
We need a breath of fresh air.
David Hogg is spot on. A hard NO on Marianne Williamson, she’s unqualified, delusional, and we need younger talent.
😂😂😂 oh please, corporate dems are the reason why Dems lost in 2016 and again in 2024. The so called experienced and heavily Washington influenced swamp rats delivered Trump to the White House twice. It’s time to return the Democratic Party back to working people and it’s about policy and not about knowing who you know in Washington

Where in the timeline does he say that?

David has the right idea. I support him 100 %
We need young men that will stand faithfully with the Democrat party and work within in order to effect change.
YEAH 🙌🙌🙌
There is a lot of work to be done educating 18 to 29 year olds. I have seen and heard too many pre and post election interviews with many of these people and.......ouch. There is a strong lack of actual understanding about the concerns of this country and the world

David Hogg/Maxwell Frost or Jasmine Crockett for DNC chair.
We are in desperate need for new ideas with a fresh fire for democracy!!!! Let their voices be heard! If we want them to be involved, let them participate!
Respectfully MSNBC, I have a memory long enough to remember that the last time a democratic candidate had a large number of young male supporters, in Bernie Sanders, that we were specifically maligned as Bernie bros by your pundits on your channel. You sent a very clear message that we weren’t wanted in the party and that our votes were not needed. I stayed and I voted to down the Dem down the line in every election I could, but I know a lot of men would gave up on the party because you outright rejected our political interests. We want Bernie style politics that will stand against the big money interests in support of radical changes because our economy is NOT working for us. Young men want a chance at building a future, including someday buying a home and not being in student or medical debt. It isn’t complicated.
The youth is the hope of the Motherland.
Good luck David! May you become the next vice chair of the DNC! We could use some fresh voices!
The younger voters should have a say in the world they will be inheriting; SOON.
A breath of fresh air! I don't know, the DNC is very established. Will they be smart enough to make a change?
I am one of the members of the Boomer generation and those of us I speak to are ready for the change David Hogg brings. The DNC has a wonderful opportunity for change; and change we must. Those that have campaigned that our lives and democracy depend upon the Democratic Party are correct…. It’s just that the change must include energy and ideas and articulate individuals of those such as David Hogg and AOC. Now is the exact time to do this.
You say that now. And when those changes come, you'll be one of the first to jump to the Republicans
I am 67 and say yes Davud is exactly what we need. But like with AOC Democrats might make the same mistake.
💙David Hogg💥💙
David is the voice of the future voter. He has experienced so much in his young life. He has the strength and courage to take on the GOP. The ironic part is MTG created him. Her harassment of him gave him the confidence and the energy to do it. I would love to see David go all the way. He is going to the White House and he can get it done.
David is needed at the DNC. And I’m a Boomer.
The gerontocracy needs to go!
Politics isn't an old man's game, it is a young man's 21st Century World...but worldly experience is the key 🗝️ not very many guys and gals can afford expensive experiences and law/civics education.
I love Symone’s ad libs! It’s given 92% energy 😎
Let's elect this young leader for our party! We definitely need younger leaders for the party and in Congress! I realize WA state isn't a swing state, but I tried to get yard signs to display in my rampantly tRump area and even though I offered to pay for them, I still couldn't get any!
Wikler and Hogg. What a team. 💙💙
100% !!!❤❤❤
I agree with David. It's long overdue for change in the democratic party. AOC also should not have to wait until she's 50 before she can get a leadership position -- she is already a leader.
David needs to be chair person of the DNC
I want to congratulate Michael and Symone for keeping a professional poker face when David talked about being patronized every 4 years. I know they felt that from the bottom of their hearts.
Good debate.
We need and deserve a DNC that will champion universal healthcare. Anything else is a joke and a insult!
THE DNC, MUST THINK CHESS!!!!!!! NOT, CHECKERS!!!!!!!!!!
They just need to build up more. They will.
Swapping out one age group for another is not chess.
@TeddyMonka-d1g not exactly, what I Meant! The Old Guard, Doesn't Want To Let, Go!!!!!!!!!
No. It's time to upgrade past chess and checkers. It's time to go into the e-sports world. Time for the DNC to use gamer strategy...
@MadMikeSportsYT if they'd been doing that, to begin with: we wouldn't have, lost!!!!!!!
Yes,our intelligent young people who have a stake in this Country. Need to have a seat at the table. In the Democratic party.Because they're the future of this Country and the world.
YES. Listen to him.
Thank you, David. You are spot-on in your comments and thankful that you are alive and active, we need you.
Way more of this please
Cdn't agree more!
