    It's a little unfair to equate Pete speaking Spanish with Beto doing it. Beto launched into it immediately and unprompted and it came off as pandering. Pete was spoken to in Spanish by the moderator, so he responded in Spanish.

      @Nancy Baker it happens in many places. It was not her idea.
      The parents got help, the kids got to school. Sometimes you need something to shake up complacency or expose a problem.
      Not every truancy problem was a poor helpless person trying their best. Sometimes parents need to be made to care, even if it’s only caring about staying out of trouble. It was never just a fine for a first offense, all instances were monitored for improvement.
      The ones that needed help, got help.
      But still, no one was jailed, average fine was $100...and they had to miss 50 days for even that to happen.
      Here in Texas an employee of mine said her parents were facing a $500 fine because she was missing school. She thought it was funny because they were unaware she had missed any at all. She had it all rigged with telephone numbers and email...until they found out.
      It exposed a problem, not only a deceiving kid, but uninvolved parents. They had to work with counselors and a mentoring program.
      She graduated, and came back to work with me while taking college classes.
      They didn’t have to pay a fine as long as they stayed involved with the programs put in place to help.
      And it worked.

I do think it is sad that she chose to publicly brag about (her) setting this program up to address this issue. Most failing schools are those in impoverished areas. Therefore, poverty may be at the heart of this. Making the poor even poorer just does not seem to be the answer. So, In Texas, someone you know of didn't have to pay their $500 fine. How many didn't get that privledge? Anyway, arguing over this one issue may not lead to any progress. Knowing that compassion to those earning below poverty level income is real and it is wrong and Bernie is absolutely right. In the wealthiest nation on earth, no American should be living in povety. Let someone at the helm who has cried loud and long his entire career to bring economic justice to all working people. Love what he has already accomplished in his shaming of the billionaires McDonalds and Amazon.

    • @barkYdarkATFB
      @barkYdarkATFB 4 роки тому

      @Nancy Baker I’m actually more interested in kids going to school. With no consequences, many kids will not go to school, and the parents won’t care.
      If poverty is the problem, a 13 year old that quits school will have no chance to rise up. A 15 year old that’s missing more than 50 days has no chance to graduate, limiting employment.
      There are programs in place. That part is missing from the argument. If it’s transportation, a parent needing a job, tutoring, after school care, whatever, there is help available.
      A single mom not knowing where her kid is because she works two jobs is spinning wheels. Yes it’s hard, but it’s a responsibility. And being offered help, but not taking it has consequences.
      This is often why kids resort to selling drugs, robbing, etc. because they have no direction, but want that money. Or this is how kids get involved in random trouble, because they have too much time with no direction.
      I know it’s a systemic problem..schools suck, education is pitiful, communities are chaotic. But it really does start with the parent.

      bridge4 - Do not lose sight of the fact that none of the policies and plans of any candidate can be enacted unless both Houses of Congress have Democratic majorities. The single most important duty in 2020 is to vote for Democrats at every level of government. If you reside in a very blue district/state, then send money to support Democratic candidates in other states.
      For states with gerrymandering, use your state's process to get an initiative on the ballet to take redistricting away from politicians and into the control of a non-partisan board that is required to use non-partisan methodologies to redraw state and federal districts. Unless gerrymandering is eliminated, Republicans will continue to elect a greater percentage of officials than their percentage of the vote (65-75% of state houses when Democrats constitute 50-55% of those who voted; or 60%+ with 45-50% Democratic voters). The people voting for non-partisan redistricting can in practical effect overturn the blatant partisan decision from the Supreme Court.
      Never forget that Democrats must get a majority in the Senate regardless of who is elected president. A Senate majority stops the appointment of the right-wing, Federalist Society candidates to the federal judiciary. Maintaining the House majority and obtaining the majority in the Senate stops nearly all of Trump's corrupt toadies attempts to subvert democracy and the Constitution. Some of those seeking to be the party's nominee for president should be persuaded to run for the Senate because the country would be better served with more Democrats in the Senate.
      NOTE: Allowing McConnell to continue as the Majority Leader many even be worse than four more years of Trump.

      A couple points are that it's already happening. Trump won because he tapped in to the rage people are feeling because of the economic devastation they are feeling. The second is that doing it too early is better than too late. At the very minimum we need to start pushing for it now because our society takes forever to change.

      Mayor Pete came to this debate, having inspired people by how thoughtfully, directly, and honestly he responds to every question thrown at him. That style works extremely well in one-on-one but gets out-shouted and out-dramatized in the circus of ten contenders onstage, some with nothing substantive to say but saying it anyway, and some happy to talk on top of whoever is already speaking. The event would have been something closer to an actual debate and more informative, if all the candidates were as thoughtful as Mayor Pete. In terms of polling, I think the evening probably helped Kamala Harris, possibly hurt Biden, and had little effect on the other candidates, half of whom I wish had enough sense to drop out.

They asked him a strategy based question about his main policy, UBI, but what about his 100+ other policies he had set? Andrew Yang is extremely dangerous to the other candidates and they know it, they proved it last night. #LetYangSpeak

      I mean, we'll just have to take his word for it? Couldn't he have said, "I'm sorry, my mic cut out, please repeat." He heard the previous statement, 5 seconds prior. Why would he be so much more "dangerous"? Other candidates have floated the idea of UBI (Buttigieg) yet they don't make it their flag ship issue.

    Except that Yang has spelled out repeatedly, and in detail, exactly how he would pay for the "Freedom Dividend" (seriously, check out his website). I guess snappy one-liners and emotional grandstanding are better than actual substance.

    its great that Kamala Harris is the highlight of this video, but I think we should also give Bernie Sanders a mention as well. He did AMAZING in the debate and without him popularizing all these issues like health care, etc., the 2020 debate would not have been like this at all.

    • @wendyweaver8749
      @wendyweaver8749 5 років тому +5

      joseph jeon - I agree that Bernie reminded the Democrats of their past when they pushed harder for the common good of the non-rich. But, do not lose sight of the fact that none of the policies and plans of any candidate can be enacted unless both Houses of Congress have Democratic majorities. The single most important duty in 2020 is to vote for Democrats at every level of government. If you reside in a very blue district/state, then send money to support Democratic candidates in other states.
      For states with gerrymandering, use your state's process to get an initiative on the ballet to take redistricting away from politicians and into the control of a non-partisan board that is required to use non-partisan methodologies to redraw state and federal districts. Unless gerrymandering is eliminated, Republicans will continue to elect a greater percentage of officials than their percentage of the vote (65-75% of state houses when Democrats constitute 50-55% of those who voted; or 60%+ with 45-50% Democratic voters). The people voting for non-partisan redistricting can in practical effect overturn the blatant partisan decision from the Supreme Court.
      Never forget that Democrats must get a majority in the Senate regardless of who is elected president. A Senate majority stops the appointment of the right-wing, Federalist Society candidates to the federal judiciary. Maintaining the House majority and obtaining the majority in the Senate stops nearly all of Trump's corrupt toadies attempts to subvert democracy and the Constitution. Some of those seeking to be the party's nominee for president should be persuaded to run for the Senate because the country would be better served with more Democrats in the Senate.
      NOTE: Allowing McConnell to continue as the Majority Leader many even be worse than four more years of Trump.
