    Raskin, Porter, Whitehouse, and Sanders are just the first names that pop into my head of pols I would love to see/hear David interview.

    • @mattlawson714
      @mattlawson714 20 днів тому

      Sanders just had a GREAT interview with Bryan Tyler Cohen it’s like over 20 minutes. You can watch the whole thing free on his channel it’s really good stuff. David is on his way but Bryan has a slightly bigger platform. And as much as I completely agree with David on everything political, he’s often a little bit smug, even when taking questions from people who are on the side of sanity. I mean, maybe I can’t blame him, he’s smarter than I am. Maybe I would act the same way. But sometimes he is a little offputting, almost insulting to those who are on the same side as him. Unnecessarily calling them out for syntax or grammar. I love his politics but to be honest he seems like the kind of guy who stares at you and taps his watch waiting for you to finish with a piece of gym equipment. “Ugh you’re taking so long I have things to do I’m important”. No. I will be here for 4 minutes. Wait your turn and leave me alone.

    I may or may not have quite the little crush on Jamie Raskin (I know he's married but s girl can dream).
    Anyway ,I live in Baltimore, Maryland and I'm proud to have him represent us in Senate. I doubt that's something that the people who voted for MTG, Lauren Boebert, and...hmmm, IDK, let's say good old Ted Cruz, about their representatives.

    • @dr.g3860
      @dr.g3860 21 день тому +3

      He's not a senator and sadly he doesn't represent you, he represents my district, Maryland's 8th, which is Montgomery County, just northeast of the DC line. Also, from here to Baltimore is a pretty long drive, so it's probably all for the best that he's happily married.

      I like Jamie Raskin too. No politician is perfect and no politician should be put on a pedestal, you’ll inevitably find something disappointing. I am glad to see he is doing better since going through cancer and the loss of his son. I wish we had someone anything close to him in my very red state where almost the entire legislature is red, state senators are red, congressman are red and our governor is red and a billionaire 😒
      I visited Baltimore a couple years ago for an event. Really enjoyed it! I know I was only there as a visitor and I know there’s more to Baltimore than the area I was in, but I do miss the area I visited. I was only there for an event so I could do as much as if I was there as a tourist. But it was lovely ☺️

  • @cdjhyoung
    @cdjhyoung 20 днів тому

    David - I tune out politicians giving speeches, or giving fluff interviews. If the interviewer is intelligent and not trying to hide their personal agenda, interviews of politicians can be very informative. When Jamie Raskin starts talking American Constitution, I'm all ears. Sad that you have decided the gain is not worth the pain to schedule these types of interviews. I grew up outside of Detroit. We had three powerful media people, JP McCarthy, Bill Bonds and Bob Talbert that could and did call any local or state politician if and when they wanted to, either side of the aisle. Their personal political bias was well known, but the interviews were always considerate and VERY informative. By the way, every major corporate leader in the state were on their call list also. I miss that. Please reconsider providing us with those kinds interviews.

  • @StealthyJim
    @StealthyJim 20 днів тому +2

    Interviews with members of Congress would probably be more interesting if they could just not speak like politicians for 15 minutes. I think that's where Raskin stands out, along with a few others. He's willing to take off the politician hat and answer questions like a legal/constitutional scholar.

      I can get a notification or not get one or get one, but well AFTER the video is over.
      It can be very annoying sometimes, because there are some events coming up where I click "Notify me". Sometimes, I get the notification at the right time, or as above, not at all or well after the event.
      It's been like this for a very long time.

    While there are definitely some exceptions, I feel the people who do watch interviews with politicians, it’s because they are also probably law nerds who are interested in policy and politics. Nothing wrong with being a law nerd. I’m a bit of a law nerd myself and sometimes watch law-tube. It’s all good 💜
