We have a Colorado socialist congressional candidate, a black woman, and said, I come from a long generation of proud black socialists, and nothing is more American than socialism.
20:14
Wow.
20:15
Isn't that something? Well, I can tell her this.
20:17
My rebuttal is that, well, under capitalism, you have the most black Americans and people of color that are millionaires and billionaires in anywhere else in the world.
20:27
And there's a reason why others are flooding to this nation because of capitalism and a free market enterprise.
20:33
In fact, also, I'll share this.

60:09
And so this next one that we have that's being published now is called What Fatherhood Means for Black America.

I just want to understand, how did it come to be that a people could be convinced of such?
1:24
Am I wrong, though, that this, why do Republicans hide from Juneteenth? This is a holiday we invented.
1:32
You know what? Thanks for having me on.
1:34
You are absolutely correct.
1:36
And that's just the facts, you know.
1:38
And you're right.
1:39
The left has always anything that resembles freedom.
1:42
