Give Jon Stewart a Nobel prize already. Damn he is doing more for culture, conscience and fixing of American Democracy than actual politicians.
ESPECIALLY the veterans! That Republican fist bump belongs in history books! Guarantee you it won't be.
This guy need to be voted out
Denial at its best.
@@firestone4330 who needs to be voted out?
@@firestone4330 which guy? Gotta be specific.
Intelligent conversations like this REALLY need to happen....
🕊️🕯️🕊️
I so wish our politicians were this intelligent, rational and logical.
Agreed! Two grea t men conversing w such clarity and intelligently.
@@lisalisa1435 Policy making and issues like these get dumbed down a lot because politicians try to make it as easy to stomach as possible - too much and it gets boring and or overwhelming.
Exactly you nailed it.
I was behind Jon from the start and it took me 53 mins for Sen Booker's message to finally click: you don't have to win against the staunchest opponents when there are already so many willing supporters who just need to be shown how they can help.
Anger and violence rarely helps the underdog win. And if you can't use anger and violence, other tactics must be used.
Seemed like Jon wanted to try to address the problem of the "opposition" and Booker saying it's enough if supporters have ways to help.
I haven't made it to 53 minutes yet and I feel like Sen. Booker is dancing around at least half of the issue.
Correct, without a come to Christ or existential crisis moment you cannot change the staunch opponents. However, it's not about changing the staunchest opponents. It is about correcting laws that allow and/or enforce injustice in the first place.
Edit: So Sen. Booker tells the story of John Lewis and the moral is: engage with everyone. That is the opposite of his earlier story about being able to engage with 9 vs arguing with 1.
I need to listen to Dr. King again and Sen. Booker's commentary but I feel like he missed the point Dr. King was making.
I think Booker would make a great President and bring America away from the ledge. However, I don't think he is right for the job of Senator, America's navigator by committee and compromise.
😊

There's nothing i love more than hearing people talk sincerely. When you see how truly connected people are to the words theyre saying. They are fully invested in this conversation and you can see how present they are. And it's absolutely captivating.
You see this really well at the 27:00 mark, where there’s a slight difference in verbiage Jon could have used and as Jon is trying to me more eloquent about putting his point together he apologizes briefly and Booker says “I know you, I know your heart.” And then they move on gracefully to then next point.
Booker is absolutely full of shit. He's literally saying "we have to not make the racists uncomfortable and make people better and explain to racists that somehow ending racism will help them". He's a narcissist who only cares about getting elected.
Hard truths are hard to hear.
"one arrest devastates a whole family" That's a truth bomb.
"If America hasn't broken your heart, then you don't love her enough." I guess I'm in love.
America is a myth. Only the people are real. I do love them, but I do not feel represented by America, and I know I'm far from the only one
Exactly ❤
💔💔💔💔💔 since 1968 AND engaged in critical thinking and sacred activism individually and collectively. Black progress is American progress.
Two real Americans talking and fighting for change. Bless you both.
bookers fighting to get re-elected and gain more political power. Nothing more. He refuses to even say we should oppose racists.. instead he says we shouldnt' offend them. As a violently anti-racist white male surrounded by them most of his life who has literally made klan bleed.. he's a weasel who only gives a shit about gaining power
The empathy in this video is palpable. Thank you.
Cory’s optimism and tenacity is part of what he needs to be a good senator. His hard work makes change. Also, bravo for his statement that we need more poets. This is such a galvanizing discussion.
ong
What are these guys doing to inspire so many of the black youth to stop becoming criminals?
But that optimism is also blinding him. He thinks racism is only racial animosity while ignoring that it includes racial indifference. Hos own example of a guy sitting on his couch during the Civil Rights era and seeing a brutal beating that inspires him to step up and help those being beaten ignores the fact that that guy wasn't the only one to watch that news clip. Millions saw it and did nothing.
Great interview. heroes changing the world. Amen to that!
@@serpentines6356 If you are honestly asking that question, you are the one that needs to change. There is an hour long conversation here that explains it better than I can. You have to try to understand, instead of blame.
I love how organic this interview was. I got emotional bc seeing these individuals have a passion for this country and the love for humanity is moving. To actually see two different minds still having an actual conversation without yelling or being nasty is really refreshing. We need more of these. Thank you
.
@@georgecone ..
Yeah but this show isn't supposed to be to individuals sitting down and telling emotional stories, the reason Jon does these interviews is because he's not afraid to ask the tough questions, the ones that make people uncomfortable, instead he let Cory manipulate him, because Jon really likes him. I'm sure Corey is a good guy, but he's doing the same the media, left and right leaning, do, instead of talking about the nitty gritty tough issues, they constantly do fluffy feel good stories to make viewer go awwwww. Instead of dodging questions like a slimy republican though, Corey avoids them by attempting to pull at your heart strings.
@@sunshynff I don’t watch this show religiously. I was just saying it was just refreshing for once to see a convo not a yelling match. If that’s your perspective then fine. I’m tired of explaining myself. Have a good new year.
It's Cory's lack of nasty that makes me not believe in him. This is New Jersey we see real change because we aren't afraid to make people feel bad about the way things are in order to help them find the will to change it. Cory is a limp wrist in a fight with the closed fists. He is a political genius yes but it wasn't soft speaking that made Phil Murphy abandon a 30% cannabis tax in the middle of a fentanyl crisis. It was people like myself telling him off day and night till it got threw to him it will not be tolerated.
I really appreciate this entire interview. I learned so much about Sen. Cory Booker, specially how much I relate with him in regards to his philosophy and approach to hard topics. A strong internal spiritual rooting is key in navigating the shifting world issues and moving towards a more perfect union.
his utter bullshit worked apparently
@@charlesreid9337
How so?
I’m glad Jon is filling our nations need for these kind of constructive conversations. 👏👏👏
The USA is behind the 8 ball. It’s sad that education is not being utilized to truly benefit the country.
"You don't have to attend every argument you get invited to". Awesome!
I really need to follow this advice ❤
If you fight poverty, you will fight crime.
Ghettos don't need money. They need morals. Can't buy your way to having integrity. Every black person who is poor is a criminal? Of course not. Why aren't they if it's poverty then?
You don't fight poverty. You eliminate it entirely by changing the social and economic systems that create it. But that doesn't sound as good in chants or on posters.
@@treborkroy5280 sometimes i question if comments like these are tolls or if people are that dumb.
First. Not everyone in the ghetto is dirt poor. Some people live there because thats where they grew up or thats all they know. Some stay to try to help make the neighborhood better, some move because rent is cheap. I would say most is just getting by, however theres a portion of the population that i would say is on the cusp of losing everything and so are encouraged to join a life of crime to last another day.
Some people just give up and commit atrocities because why not when you literally have nothing to lose.
Its no coincidence that the worst crime ridden areas, despite race, also happen to be the poorest. Just take a map and match it to crime rates and income. Itll be a fit.
@@treborkroy5280 so let me put it to you like this... morality in the ghetto is not their problem, every level of society has crime, it's just that those at the bottom rung only have access to those of violent means. White Collar crimes, do exist, but rarely ever cost people their lives. So yeah, I much rather assist the ghetto and risk them becoming white collar criminals, than claim a moral superiority over people with less choices...
@Brian Z I’m not for “giving” anybody anything. The only thing you get in this country is a chance, that’s it. What you make of it is on you.
Thank you Jon for coming back to foster essential conversations. Cory, I have listened to you for the last year on instagram and now here. You are one of the most thoughtful, intelligent political leaders we have. Words DO make a difference. Your point is well taken. Your compassion and heart are equally matched to your intelligence.
It’s so incredibly encouraging to me to see such a prominent figure insistently preaching empathy and reconciliation and redemption - along with a need for repentance and accountability, of course - and calling out people on all sides for our tendency to insulate ourselves from people different from us, to the point that we no longer see or value their humanity. Too often we manage to convince ourselves that we can write other people off - as though we are not all inevitably in this together, living on this small and dangerously warming planet. It’s satisfying in the short term to give in to contempt and resentment - which in some cases are well-earned - but it does nothing to move us forward or make this world a better place to live. I love the sincerity and grace of this whole conversation. 💛
Two of my favorite people!! Both are generously endowed with intelligence, passion, compassion, humor, and verbal skills. A great way to spend an hour.
That I totally agree❤❤❤
I cannot believe how good they are. I have no problem with the worsening of mainstream news media. I just move to places of my choosing. There’s small gems you can find.
Agreed.
Yeah I love these two men, they’re both great performers, they’re both millionaires. But Cory is the real champ, he voted against the bill that would make drugs more affordable, hurting poor black Americans. But he talks so nice, it’s hard not to love him
@@vodolara2644 thanks for reminding us to keep our eyes peeled for the truth when looking at the powerful
Thank you so much for this profound, thought provoking and moving discussion about race in America. I am a fellow liberal Jew whose first day of school was in Boston at JFK elementary in 1965; one of only four schools in Boston that day to integrate. My white mother walked me to school through crowds of screaming racists held back by a wall of police. I was one of only a handful of white kids that day in my kindergarten class whose parents set an example that would forever stay with me and is the foundation for who I became and how I view this issue. Before we left for school that morning, my mother sat me down and told me not to be afraid because there would be people yelling and throwing things at the school. She then explained as simply as she could why. She asked me if I would like it if all flowers were the same color. Of course my answer was an emphatic No! She explained that people come in lots of colors just like flowers, but roses aren’t better than lillies or daisies; they are just different but both are beautiful. Then she explained the analogy and asked me to set a good example by being kind and friendly to everyone no matter what color they were.
Liberal jew? Nooooo really?
Love this analogy.
❤😭
@@42663You almost got through the second sentence. It's a start, but try a little harder next time.
Man, if only all of our problems could be solved by ignoring the actual issues and saying analogies at each other while jerking each other off.
Brilliant interview by both Jon Stewart and Senator Cory Booker. I'm so happy to find a place where discussion and learning are valued over sound bites. Very excited to watch more.
I am….stunned. Realized thru Booker’s words that I do need to change my thinking. I wish more people could watch this with a small effort to open the heart and mind. What an amazing senator!! So glad he’s serving. I’m going to try to do better, Cory.
“You can’t be funny if you’re not smart.” What a great compliment to JS ♥️
True true
It's generally true but not totally...I have met a few funny morons.
have you heard of mr.bean? Man I tell you, that guy's a complete idiot! But he is funny
@@ingolfura.4327 Rowan Atkinson (of Mr. Bean and Black Adder fame) received a Bachelor of Science in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (Newcastle University) and a Masters in Electrical Engineering (Oxford). The skits in Mr. Bean may see Mr. Bean portrayed as moronic, but underlying Mr. Bean's idiotic behavior are scripts are original, brilliant and withstood the test of time, which goes to show Rowan Atkinson is no dummy when it comes to writing comedy and acting it. I mean... He managed to make mundane daily activities like seeing the dentist, going swimming and making a sandwich for lunch into funny sketches!
@@TaleDreamer Wooosh.
So many times I heard Sen. Booker say "Here's what you need to understand.", or "I disagree", or "You're missing the point", or something like it, and John sitting back and reflecting and adjusting his lens. It's refreshing to see such a mature discussion that isn't scripted or that sticks to an agenda. Two honest men having an honest conversation where they don't necessarily see eye-to-eye but want to get to the root of problems. Fantastic interview, thank you.
I’m on Jon side more than bookers
Cringe. Honest politician? That is a oxymoron.
I'm on Booker's side, but there were many times I heard Jon saying "right", and it felt like he was convinced by Booker, like you say Sourcream (lol) adjusting his lens. I appreciate that very much about Jon.
And I agree with Booker's focus on specific words. Don't generalise. Even if you admit it's a generalisation. It gets people's backs up.
HONEST???? Booker???? 🤡
@@microfoneman that’s because you are a conservative lib
This interview should be required viewing for EVERYONE!
9 months ago but timeless. I love Cory's stories about decency, compassion, and empathy. I will do what I can with what I've got. Love this guy.
he used the word "I" about 20 times in the first five minutes then said we shouldnt piss off racists. He's a weasel con man and.. well it worked on you
In this interview Corey Booker is incredibly insightful and understands people and America very well. Such a great episode. Stumbled upon this and ended up watching the whole thing.
That's great and all, but we don't need warm and fuzzy stories between friends, Jon let Corey avoid tough questions because Cory tugged at his heart string, I used to really like Corey too, but I've had enough with him avoiding the ugliness of what's going on by trying to make us feel all warm n fuzzy, he needs to get tough with republicans or go do story time at a kindergarten class.
C'mon tell us what you " really think"😂 just kidding I find your forthrightness refreshing. Have you thought of running for office yourself? We could use that level of honesty in Congress or the Senate. Just a thought 🤔 @@sunshynff
@@UnashamedCaliforniagirl .....Why thank you for the kind words, I recently retired a few years early, and I'm in the process of getting involved more with my community via outreach programs, mutual aid, and just advocating for some things that people in my area (semi-rural) aren't used to, not sure I want to go beyond that.
I'll never say never, but I've seen so many people, even in local government, get swayed or corrupted, not just by money either, sometimes it's just peer pressure, or the ability to be part of the "in crowd" in a town or city, some just get drunk with power telling others what to do. I'm not saying those things would happen to me, I'd like to think I'm better than that, but I also know I'm human, and as of now, I don't want the stress of finding out, and I also think I can be more effective as boots on the ground, out there puttin' some work in, does that make sense, or was that a cop out?? LOL.
If anyone wonders why Jon Stewart is such a good interviewer, just look at the first 4 minutes or so. He takes all of that time to provide Sen. Booker with the context of the interview and to set up the direction of the conversation he'd like to start.
It really reflected well on both of them that he was able to take that much time to speak uninterrupted to lay it out. It's extremely difficult to have an intellectual conversation in any form where there has to be interjections every 10 seconds. We need more conversations where there is the time and space for a person to speak long enough to be heard.
then constantly interrupts him. Stewart can be good, but he really pushes his viewpoint to the point of not letting other ppl finish their thoughts if they disagree.
i am torn between saying 'let Corey finish a sentence, dammit!' and 'Corey is a politician, will he ever finish a sentence'...
Yeah Jon is good but he's not even close to being as awesome as Corey Booker
@@vforwombat9915 , here, “politician” isn’t a pejorative. Booker had no problem expressing himself. Jon came with anticipation and expectations, had those adjusted, and we all benefited for it.
@@oneirishpoet hahahahahahahahaha!
Yay Jon Stewart! Don't ever stop asking the tough questions. We need you more than ever.
This is how every conversation should be instead of heated arguments and fights. An intelligent conversation while discussing real issues that are plaguing our entire society.
Yeah, the "real issues" plaguing the only first world superpower. Give me a break.
As a prosecutor, the biggest thing we can do to fix the criminal justice system is universal Healthcare. The amount of times we have to spend hours on the phone trying to get inmates to mental health facilities is despicable. Sometimes the only tool I have to keep someone safe and alive is jail until we can get them other help. That is wrong. I've seen cops nearly beg a state senator for more services for addicts and mental health. Hell, I've done it myself. The people in congress, state legislature, and even big advocacy groups don't know what the people on the ground really want and need. We need help. We want help. We know addiction and mental health services will make everyone in our community safer.
I agree with what you have to say. I'm in a state where the state covers addiction treatment. The problem is finding enough beds to hold all those that need them. That makes me wonder where else have we failed? Why all these addicts? Is the income inequity so out of balance that have lost all hope? I have no answers... Just a thought.
I completely agree. And to add to that I have to say we need to take mental illness into the mind of the populace. It is unresolved trauma that fuels most of our social ills.
Trust the US government at this time for universal health care? That boat has sunk like the titanic. Both sides have let us all down. Trump can't fix it either. The man behind the curtain paid his debts. He is indebted to the New World Order. These two turkeys are just part of the world club themselves.
if you can't afford a sandwich, don't tell me you can afford crack instead. it's that simple. i couldn't care less if prisons are filled with mental health "victims" ...all i care is that crack head that killed grandma for her 5 dollars gets punished, not caught and released.
@@kantraxoikol6914 I’m sorry you’re in pain. I hope you can escape whatever toxic mindset drove you to say something so cruel and stupid. Please see a therapist. And delete your youtube account
I’ve just watched this in Australia. I’m so moved by what I just saw. From both of you gentleman. I feel incredibly uplifted, and elucidated, you are a pair of very good men
Thank you John, for this very insightful talk. Please do more of these. I now know Senator Booker better than I could ever know him from usual 10 minute media.
The sock story has me balling… This man has so much love 😭
(Okay, so it was his friend who gave up the socks, but still. I’m completely inspired by his perspective and everything he’s said. I literally never observe such love in our world, but I’m going to find a way to start myself. Cuz right now I’m literally just dying from all the external hate that I let in)
How I hope that Senator Booker will run for president again someday soon, What a wise, thoughtful, introspective and kind kind human. He gives me hope, as does Jon and all of the awareness he has brought to the public for many years. I so miss watching Jon every night after family dinner but I’m so pleased to see him furthering the conversation and consciousness of our great country. Thank you both for this insightful and uplifting interview.❤
If you think Booker has dementia along w/other Democrats,then it shows you’re ignorant racist,the kind Booker talked about.He’s brilliant.He’s idealistic.If every congress person could be as insightful as he is we would be a great country.not the greatest.I dare you could beat Booker in a debate. Sit back & watch how the pros do it. You could learn some humility.
Great to have Jon back. I hadn't heard the word "accoutrements" in 7 years.
I missed him myself. I understood why he left but it is so nice to have him back.
Last time I heard that was Winnebago Man.
Seriously 😳 nice to listen 👂 to intelligent convo’s.
I love that word!!
Missed the old "soupçon", too.
This is a beautiful conversation that taught me a lot and was absolutely up-lifting. This gives me hope.
I feel educated.... I don't often feel that after watching interviews
Me too
This was a fantastic sit down with two incredible hearts and minds to discuss some of the most critically important talking points of today and I enjoyed this so much!
As a woman trying to be and do my best everyday I learned a lot here and respect you both for the work you do!
Thank you ♥️
Thank you. Both of you. I’ve been SO angry at the state of this country and the way it’s run, basically since birth. (Jon) I’ve also always known love is the only thing that changes the world. Even if it’s one person at a time. (Sen. Booker) I have never seen a more transformative conversation. One that both lessened my anger and gave me practical tools to use to fight injustice. I also learned the importance of separating the fight from the people that support what I’m fighting. You both are, and have been, a source of knowledge and inspiration to me. I respect you both so much already and this was beautiful. Truly. Thank you.
You’ll get even better information from many Black authors - I suggest starting with Mikki Kendall’s “Hood Feminism” as well as Austin Channing Brown, Isabel Wilkerson, and if you want to understand systemic racism in education, please follow Bettina Love. White people need to move beyond feeling ashamed and start acting on removing systemic barriers, but they don’t want to give up their privilege (including liberals). “Nice” racism is still racism.
@@halifaxeh 💯 I appreciate the recommendations - going to check them out. I’ve been on a journey of learning. My knee jerk reaction is to want to burn the whole system to the ground and build from the ashes but that isn’t realistic sadly.
@@Kbsnflwr I’m with you on wanting to burn it down! But we have to do what we can and encourage others to be more active learners too.
Amen!
“You don’t have to attend every argument you’re invited to”. Wow. That really hits home.
Same. Right in the feels.
Yeah, that one got me, too.
So simple, yet very profound.
Yup. That's just gold. And then there's the gem... "If America doesn't break your heart, you don't love Her enough."
@Robert Taylor kk
These 1hr interviews are a real breath of fresh air. With most interviewers, it would probably drag. But John Stewart is so incisive and listens so deeply that it is truly revealing. In this format, you understand the nuances of the topic and, most importantly, you understand the person.
This was simply incredible. Inspiring and rejuvenating. Never knew much about Cory Booker, and now I realize how glad I am that he's a senator. We need more people like each of these men. Really incredible. I haven't felt this much faith for our politicians in a long time.
This is an amazing interview with Booker I honestly shed a tear. He is so intelligent and responded so thoughtfully. 🙌✌️
And that’s the problem. We need more than thoughtful responses and codling the group we must mobilize to make these changes.
Word!! Wish he'd run for President again.
@@marvinharris8926 - Booker's too widely recognized as vapidly insincere for that to make sense.
@@maryhalverson5713 Sorry you feel that way 🤔
@@marvinharris8926 Booker should be sorry for being that way.
At 53 minutes John leans forward taking in the point made and deeply thinking about what this means for him and his point. I just love how John's passion comes through in these interviews.
Cory is uncomfortable, he keeps trying to derail the conversation. Cory really is out of his depth. He lives very good life.
@@celestialbeing4767 he’s Carlton Banks
@@celestialbeing4767 absolutely not. Cory Booker is an incredible human being and nothing like you describe. Jon was interviewing him, not the other way around. This was a highly intelligent and enlightening dialogue between two men that care deeply about the subject.
@@jeanniep1003 I agree with you and incredible human being. However on curtain things, I don't approve of Cory's stances or positions. He isn't the lowest of the low. But he's a shill for corporations, oligarchies or plutocracies. His fear is very visible.
@@celestialbeing4767 I think you are wrong, I'm gonna guess you are a bernie supporter, and he is the only good person in politics, and everyone else is flawed. Bernie is a good human being, but he is not a good politician. IM gonna guess you calling cory a shill, because he didn't vote in favor to the legislation bernie and Klobuchar submitted to lower drug prices, and you make a good point, however, that legislation was garbage, do you at all wonder why mitch mconnel, john mccain, who receive MILLIONS by pharma (way more than cory ever got from pharma) voted IN FAVOR or bernies legislation? Because it was meaningless, it instilled no change whatsoever, it was basically just a raise your hand if you don't like drug prices. And that's the problem with bernie, he is an idealist to a fault , he would rather stay pure to his cause, than corrupt himself in an effort to affect ACTUAL change, that would help real people, in pain. Why would cory vote against pharma companies when the vote didn't matter at all? Him being a senator of a big pharmaceutical place, would only have put crosshairs against him, pharma would have push a lot of money to get rid of him, before he could even try to make any real change.
And cory talks about it in this interview, he talks about how the system is broken, yes, but that you can use that system to your advantage and navigate through it STILL to make real change possible. to still keep progressing. You will believe what you want to believe about him, but I'm telling you, comparing people to bernie, is not fair, because bernie rather not pass anything than passing something half assed, and that takes special kind of person, but also that doesn't help progress.we didn't, get LGBTQ and womans right from 1 legislation giving them ALL the power, it was a slow crawl. from people that took risks, and gave things that the other side wanted, and that compromised their own ideals, to get things done.
Maybe i am wrong and you arent a bernie sanders supporter, maybe you just think cory sucks, everything still applies, just need to understand that politics are tricky
"if America hasn't broken your heart, you don't live it enough" what a beautiful statement in the midst of Corey's impassioned expression of how he stands for our ideals and believes in the long game.
That was one of the most informative interviews I have every witnessed. still processing it. and will be for a while. Because at the end of the day What am I doing to be apart of the solution? Thank you everyone at The Problem with Jon Stewart.
Loved how you just actively listened to Cory who so clearly explains his own thoughts. Would that we could all be as respectful and open to one another. A lesson in every way, thank you both.😊
For a lesson on racism, read the original "Dr. Dolittle" book.
Fortunately the charming plot has taken on a life of it's own and 7 movies have been made.
But the book is incredibly racist. I never recommended it to kids, but it's a useful lesson for adults.
Retired librarian
The problem with white people?? White people don't attribute the same humanity to people who don't look like them. Whit them humanity doesn't go beyond their own reflection in the mirror.
So smart and respectful
The socks story reminded me of how I was dating my husband and he helped a homeless person who I rejected because I just couldn't stand the stench and was scared because he was drunk. My husband has put everything aside and helped the man in need and I felt ashamed for my own reaction. This was the moment I realized he was a better person than me and I loved him truly for that. 20 years passed and he has fed himself so much russian financed propaganda and has read so many conspiracy theories...the words that come out of his mouth can be so evil and full of hatred towards the weakest in our society....I ask myself where the person is that I once so admired and I grieve for him. Those moments when someone is basically holding a mirror in front of us and what we see is not what we hoped and we are shocked...those moments shape us the most.
Echo chambers can resonate through us sometimes, I find myself saying hateful things too, but he probably hasn’t changed all that much. The internet has just made the bitter voices louder, disproportionate, it tugs at heart strings that poke out, able to find the wrong premise wherever you want. But a heart stems from much deeper principles and convictions, don’t let the surface level quarrels dictate who he is. We all have our biases that make us sound ignorant, but it’s a much simpler methodology to the madness and it can mean very little. Hope it still works out for you, he should at least have enough trust in you to rectify his shortcomings and only you can remind him of that.
People can change, for better or worse.
Woman to woman: making the conscious decision to not engage a man who is intoxicated is an act of self-preservation. While you admit that this was a multilevel decision that made you think more deeply about your motivations, I empathize with that hesitation to engage with an intoxicated person. Just my two cents
I'm sorry that happened to your husband that touched me I don't know why. Tell him that story if he will hear it maybe he will come back.
Remind him of this story and how he affected you then. Maybe you can affect him now by leading by example.
This is such a great conversation. I wish more people would have open honest discussions, even if they don't see eye to eye on every issue. They both make sure to stop and listen to each other. They don't talk over each other. We have to all come together and realize we are all in this together.
Together with your guest Senator Cory Booker you restaure in this interview the feeling that Earth is still a good place to be. Thank you.
Cory Booker and Jon Stewart, a great team. And both are fearless and get things done.
Lol funny
I’m in tears right now because I have always been a huge fan of Cory Booker and to be given the opportunity by this platform to experience his humanity and pureness has overwhelmed me. No one watching your incredible interview and your heart could not learn from this interview. I’m you, Jon. We have shared the same views on every subject you have. I moved from Arizona because I felt threatened by my neighbors. And I’m just guessing we, you and me, have been opened up to a new possibility for love. I say all the time, I love everyone, and here comes the but, I have withdrawn my love because of my dislike of people that are obviously broken in a different way than I am. Thank you so much. This interview has changed my life ❤️
You're not Jon. Get a grip.
That's great and all, but we don't need warm and fuzzy stories between friends, Jon let Corey avoid tough questions because Cory tugged at his heart string, I used to really like Corey too, but I've had enough with him avoiding the ugliness of what's going on by trying to make us feel all warm n fuzzy, he needs to get tough with republicans or go do story time at a kindergarten class.
Blesss you ❤. Ignore the naysayers…
Beautiful!!!
Same here ❤️
Jon! As always great interview! The reason I always come back for Jon Stewart interviews is because you always ask the exact question people want to hear in the most Frank yet diplomatic way. The last two people you interviewed from New Jersey were complete political hacks. And refused to admit the truth about racism and the legal system in the United States. When Cory Booker made a comment that resembled pull yourself up by the bootstraps I got sick. Cory Booker is from Washington DC and was the mayor of Newark the largest urban area in New Jersey. So for Cory Booker to have this flippant attitude about people and their self determination issues not having anything to do with systematic problems is just ridiculous. I’m only 26 minutes in but I’m gonna watch this until the end. Jon you’re doing a great job.
This is quite possibly one of the best things I've seen out of the political sphere in a LONG time. I wish the Senator had had a bit more time in the media during the last primary season. Inspiring and profound in a way I did not expect.
I am in awe of both Jon Stewart and Senator Booker. This is the kind of interview that should be mandatory in every classroom, and to those who love this country and want to make it a better place. Lets have more like this. Thought provoking, insightful, brilliant. Thank you.
i stumbled upon this and wow. what a wonderful, intelligent, and open conversation. tears in my eyes. i needed it; as i have become more and more shameful of the country i live in. but, as he stated, if doesn't break your heart, it's not worth it. brilliant.
So engouraging to see this great conversation between to men who obviously care about sharing information and clarifying points to help move this topic forward! We all must do better!
Check out Jon's other interviews. SO good.
this is actually one of my favorite videos ever! i admire both you and senator booker so much!
Thank YOU BOTH for this intelligent conversation. Cory Booker, YOU are an INSPIRATION!
I am absolutely INSPIRED by the fact that Jon Stewart is looking for SOLUTIONS. He is generally also doing so through respectful conversations with influential people who can possibly help facilitate change. Change more often than not happens gradually.
This show is what America needs.
While I generally agree with that sentiment - and with John’s perspective, entirely - it sure seemed to me John did the show, the conversation, and his guest a disservice by not extending that respect to Sullivan. Not Sullivan’s notions, but to the man, who trusted John enough to expose what he believed.
And look at this, he put up a long full length interview of substance without a "profit at all costs" mentality. This content really does replace the 24/7 news networks. When societies are sick, it's the comedians who step in to point out and criticize the establishment. I heard rumors of Stewart teaming up with Breaking Points. We need new networks of journalism perhaps supported via crowd sourced donations or viewership, and/or funded by ads of companies who are socially conscious and not profit at all costs driven. I'm sure these aren't simply THE answers but like JS, I too am trying to think my way towards solutions.
JS is the best, as great as Colbert and Noah are, nobody is close to Jon Stewart
@@mavigogun Sullivan who? WTF are you talking about?
"We need to tell the truth, but we still refuse to tell the truth because it may hurt people's feelings." Language is important, and the more you soften it the easier it is to minimize it. The reason white supremacy is so prevalent today is because it's not allowed to be called out for what it is. Push through the feelings, corner them and make them listen, stop coddling white supremacists.
You Betta say that shit!!!
Indeed
I knew Stewart was a typical liberal...totally ignorant on most issues...but here he shows just how immensely ignorant he is.
In 1964, LBJ's re-election was threatened because of the Vietnam War. So Democratic operatives went door-to-door to bribe
Black families with perpetual welfare for votes, and told them, "as long as NO MAN is in your house, you can collect
indefinitely". Thus began the destruction of the Black family.
Three Black scholars, Thomas Sowell, Glenn Loury, and Coleman Hughes, show us exactly why there is wealth disparity in
the Black community today.
After sixty-years and TRILLIONS in welfare reparations (50% of all welfare in USA went to Black families), from
Affirmative Action to Section-8 housing, Black culture is the number one reason for wealth inequality. It destroyed an entire
generation of black youth, and still is.
1...Over 70% fatherless families
2...Highest murder and violent crime rate in the USA
3...Glorification of gangsta and thugs
4...Prison = "street cred"
5...Young intellectuals are labelled "trying to be white"
6...Belief in false "victimhood", instead of determination
7...Shutting down Black conservatives to avoid truth
8...Voting for one party regardless how they fail them
9..."Music" that teaches youth that women are "hoes" and not worth marrying
10...Accepting far-left propaganda to blame others for life failures
11...Allowing the welfare state to become father and mother
12...No integrity to denounce Black culture
13...33% of Black men are felons (1 out of 3) 50% have a criminal record.
14...Black women buy more luxury items, like cars & jewelry, than white women
15...62% of Black males buy alcohol. 25% are daily heavy drinkers
16...Almost 25% of Black men spend $2200 each year on cigarettes
(accumulated down-payments on TWO HOUSES or two businesses)
Thank you! All this careful speak is pissing me off. Booker just tell the damn unadulterated, well documented truth!
Here's the real problem...Black culture.
ruclips.net/video/U3nx2WRQ32w/видео.html
This really fed my soul. How great are these two men.
It is such a pleasure to listen to you both, discussing, analysing, trying to find common ground points to help to grow as a country! Where every one has the same rights and obligations!
"If we are not learning the skills to have a conversation without it tuning into people shutting down then we are part of the problem"
This was sooo much better than the first panel debate. Thanks!
People like you confuse me
@Robert Taylor well i got two peices of confusion, 1 why make this a reply to someone elses comment when its so unrelated? I think other dominics thing is braindead but your reply really seems more like something you ought to have made an individual comment. 2nd i guess is less confusion but i do have a critique id love to hear your response. values are great, but they aint gonna do crap for your kids monetary wise. I want people to come up with good values cuz that generally means they and a good home life, but if we are talking about the same good values (kindness, being hard working, being truthful, being fair minded, ect) then those are actually gonna hurt your kids cuz they are not helpful in a competative market and when they are they make it easier for them to be exploited. Kindness can lead you to be helpful to homeless people while your on the job which which can get you sacked as an employee or just make you take a ton of your free time to help them. Charity is a similar deal. Hard work and humility can be smelled by bosses and managers and they will fill your day up with tons of extra work and make you stay late cuz they know that you wont complain, and humility can lead you to never asking for raises. I think your intensions are beautiful, but your being an idealist, you have been lied to and your setting your kids up to be stepped on. I dont want your kids not to have those values, and if it were myself id rather have good values than be rich, but having good values as a poor person will end you up being trampled on and slaughtered under the will of the market. WHat i am saying is take the money, skrew over the rich, skrew over the people like me, good values dont hurt the people at the top because they can outsource their cruelty, for poor people to be able to have good lives and good values, then we need to make the people like me pay, steal their ill gotten goods, cuz trust me, we dont deserve what we have, no one does, so if no one deserves this exass we should all share it as best we can. I would love to hear from you again and i hope you and your family are well and i pray that you change your mind and recognize what will help you and your kids. Good values are beautiful and this society eats beauty, material power is needed to preserve what is worth living for
@Robert Taylor thats legit adorable, the speak and say when ever thing, i wasnt fighting you on that just confused, you seem like you dont really understand internet ettiquite, i wasnt getting on to you just trying to clarify cuz the way you post is confusing. but im sorry for starting with all of that, its a tad petty, i was just straightening out what i think was your original respondents confusion, cuz your reply had nothing to do with the shitbird you were replying to.
that wood grill thing sounds awesome and like a lovely activity, but two things, firstly gas prices going up for the same amount fucks over poorer people far more than rich people, cuz even if both have the same increase a poorer person has less income so the higher prices take a larger part of their over all money. 2ndly, price per gallon has been rising while price per barrel has been rather static, meaning that the rising prices are not natural, its the gas companies realizing that we are not attentive citizens and will believe that they have to raise prices. This is all merely price gouging, the companies are fucking us all out of our paychecks cuz they know they can get away with it. most huge companies are getting record profits, i say that they dont deserve them and we should take that money back and give it to people struggling to make ends meet. Thats not a hand out, thats justice.
word salad? aight. Dont really get the high stepper thing, but it has little to do with my overall points because fuck booker, hes an ineffectual hack who is materially too bound up in the current system to be able to execute any of the changes he claims to care about in his heart, I want to take all of his money too, he doesnt deserve it and has far more resources than he needs.
I am not from a communist country as there are no communist countries, I am from the good ole US of A and the abuse of workers i speak of is the expressed purpose of the systems we live under. money is power and that power is used to destroy the communal relationships we as workers have with eachother, to disposes us of power that we can exercise elsewhere. This is not done through shadowy figures deciding the fate of the world behind our backs, its done by the creation of systems on top of systems, each meant to solve little problems that over time form the skeleton of the state we all live under. weve gone too far, the capitalism i am sure you worship as hard as any god you claim to have is fully dependent on the large states that have formed in conjunction with them and is both the thing eating the middle class and the "small businesses" you blindly see as a path to freedom. Get rid of all that government and the whole fucker dies. Now i think the way the state and goventment is being used is attrocious, however there are amazing things about this society i wish to preserve, and while i think there is a possibility that we can all come out better from that death, if im being honest i see it as unlikely, so i think people, the tread upon people and their allies, have to work together and take control . Basically if we go the way you want to, your childern are fucked, their kids are fucked, the things you think they will managed to build are fucked and i am fucked as is everyone i love, the only reason I dont say you are as well is that its seems to me that you are a bit on the older side like my parents and wont have to pay for this era that you are sleepwalking through. If anyone in your family is not crushed in the oncoming horror it will be because they chose themselves over others and destroyed the happiness and life of someone elses family. Maybe thats still good values in your book, its absolutley the American way, but its something I cannot tolerate. I am tired of being the winner of the prisoners delima. We can all win and it wouldnt even be that hard, itd be invigorating, itd give all of us more of a say over our lives and more community, more options of friends and spouses, more art, inventions, ideas and free time that could be used productively rather than just banging away at our keyboards acting as data farms for advertising companies. sorry i went off, I am thinking about what you siad and i hope any of what i said sticks with you, feel free to ask anything else if yur curious or push me on anything you said if you feel like i dodged
@Robert Taylor Several. Inconsistency, bad grammar, spamming copy/paste response, lack of salient worldview, vague nonsensical appeals to religion.
@Robert Taylor You fear the word salad, so instead, dine on word chop-suey: I am neither a banker nor a therapist, I can neither solve your economic woes nor do I have the ability to convince you to find some sort of internal nirvana that will solve your perception problems. I'd first suggest having a consistent idea of what's happening.
Simultaneously raving about living in the greatest country in the world that runs off of incredible biblical wisdom, which in no way includes a money power structure, hate watching an interview of Corey Booker and raving about how you're of pure moral character and "don't need no handouts" in a comment section, then turning around and ranting to a bunch of strangers on the internet about how your kids will be fine based on your rearing and values while also saying your life is in complete shambles because of fantastical authoritarian leftists is kind of a clear sign that maybe turning off your internet might do you some good. Might be annoying to get out of the contract, but it'll save money, since you're apparently burning wood for power.
But whatever the case, your issues are not going to be solved by watching The Problem with Jon Stewart.
This is a compelling conversation and i'm grateful it's been so frequently viewed. You guys did great.
The "empathy gap" is absolutely foundational to why we move so slowly toward an obviously better, freer, more perfect union. Many teach it to their children.
I was born a very hypersensitive child whose level of empathy was too much to bear. I’ve continued to be that way because that’s who I am intrinsically still at the age of 67 but over the past 40 decades I’ve learned to turn it into a SuperPower by helping those less fortunate especially to help our environment & Animal Rights. You are spot on about the “empathy gap” because it basically is about “do unto others”. That’s all we need to know.❤
Jon, I am 60yrs old and I learned about Juneteenth from the show Blackish. I only learned about Tulsa in the past few years. The documentaries are my learning. I went to college and feel I had a good education. It taught me to think and disseminate information critically. I can see now but others do not want to sit and learn. I would march if I physically could. My point is we are not teaching the truth and education is EVERYTHING. We need to teach our kids and teach Police how to be polite.Unfortunately this is under attack.
Wow what an excellent episode!! Senator Cory Booker really touched my heart. At the beginning of the interview, I thought Senator Booker was seeing life through rainbow color glasses but now I see he knows the only way to change this country is by touching people's hearts. Which will allow empathy, sympathy, compassion and love to melt hearts and produce change. He's the real deal.
This is one of the riches conversations about systemic racism and discrimination solutions I have come across yet. This is EXCELLENCE.
That was a Masterclass in not taking the bate to reductive rhetoric. In some ways, mimicking John’s critique of the mainstream news media. Senator Booker speaks like a man focused on all the small victories and how to get up from the big losses. Bravo.
I love Booker! Smart man yet always humble. Good job both of you, you have both opened eyes and even helped John understand some things better w/o disrespect!! Great episode John Stewart ❤
I grew up with John on the daily show. I had forgotten how skillful an interviewer he was. This country will be worse off when he eventually passes.
Kudos to Jon, the EPs, and the marketing and social media functions on blasting RUclips with additional content around each week’s theme. Fantastic to finally see a television show that invests so heavily in engagement and audience development. Great job!
I’ve noticed that. It is a really nice touch.
Well said!
I love these interviews they are unscripted, genuine, and challenging.
Twice, a bill was brought up, bi-partisan, to help farmers(of any color) be able to take one of their livestock to the town butcher, to make a little extra money....and it was killed twice. Farmers are of no concern in Washington. They aren't.
It is a really beautiful conversation. Im so glad that John Stewart is back.
I love that Jon Stewart is back. He teaches me so much.
unscripted? how gullible are you
@@leshtricity Oh you got me!!!! I understand, Newsmax would’ve been a way better interview.
I don't normally comment on videos on RUclips. I'm going to acknowledge I felt a lot of emotion watching this (ups and downs). By the end, I felt more positive than negative (hopeful perhaps than not hopeful). I disagree with a lot of the senator's approach but appreciate his commitment to leadership. I personally think the role John is playing in society is as important as the one writing legislation. More conversations like this are needed. I really appreciate this. Thank you to John and the team for doing this and for Senator Booker for participating.
Stewart 2024, you're an excellent comedian but an amazingly thoughtful and well spoken individual who could implement and be the true change you want to see in the world. It's wonderful to watch you share your gift but I hope you take it further. Your journalism is HONEST and generates the capacity for change. I loved this interview. I stand by my statement STEWART 2024.
All I can say is I am grateful that we do not have to keep screaming we are hurting, we are tired... That someone is finally seeing and listening, to see Corey just being able to listen
"If America hasn't broken your heart, you don't love her enough." 😭🧡🙏 Thank you so much for you both having this conversation. You moved a lot of energy here. I completely believe you've got to the heart of the issue "loving the contemptable" and opening our hearts with compassion for others as their well-being is inextricably woven with our own.
Reagan ruined so much more than people today really realize. He was a dedicated, tactful, racist.
@Mike Labonte I loved it too! It's something Cory Booker says a couple times in this interview
"If your family was kidnapped, beaten, raped, and brought here and you love her you're insane." If you're black and don't hate yourself, you haven't been paying attention. You're in the same cultural environment as whites, nothing in it says you are worth loving.
Though he rarely spoke the words, it is clear he is a man of faith who LIVES like such a person. Sincerity, thoughtfulness, authenticity and love for others. I am changed by this conversation. Thank you Jon and Senator Booker.
I love how slow, methodical, and well thought out this whole interview was. It's a breath of fresh air to year such an intellectual conversation taken place.
Watching the daily show was a very important part of our family's quality time together and we are fortunate to have the experience. Thank heavens for the integrity you have shown to this country, you specifically have made a profound impression and we love you very much.
Deeply enlightening and uplifting. Thank you, Senator Booker and Jon Stewart.
🕊️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🕊️
This is how two intelligent individuals sit down and have a conversation about something so controversial. Cory Booker you made this so simple and to the point. I am very impressed! I do hope to run for president again you would be phenomenal. Thank you John Stewart for bringing this and so many other important topics to the table.🙏 What a great interview!
What a heart-opening conversation.
Listening to this discussion, let me see that all the anger, dissolution, fear, and heartache I have felt and leaned into for the past 5 yrs could now be released and in its place a more positive motivation to make changes.
Great interview. The world needs more people like Cory and Jon.
Absolutely not, you Americans can keep them, thanks, nobody else wants your Puritan nonsense
More like Jon less like Cory.
@Sharing the World sadly Jon is exactly the same type of shameless unprincipled hack as Cory these days. Used to be a massive fan so it's sad to see him just regurgitating all of the Newspeak and right think speaking points
Booker takes bribes from corporations and does nothing except talk. He's literally known as 'Booker the corporate hooker.'
@@brendan904 lol no bro you got it wrong. i am curious to know how jon is a unprincipled man
What a thought provoking interview. Well done from all.
@Henzo88 truth!
@Henzo88 that’s not my choice of wording either but he can pull out the most neglected parts of history and use it to communicate a message. I’m not going into his politics but only his methods.
@Henzo88 Booker is a POS diversity hire.
@Henzo88 , your reaction reflects on you, not anyone else. This is always true.
@Henzo88 Interesting you end your alias with 88, or should I write "HH" as in "Heil Hitler", a lot of people with your "view" do that. Like you are little girl scouts and want to use "secret" signs to each other.
You may never see this but I FREAKING LOVE JON STEWART!! We need celebrities talk about everyday issues maybe the right ears will hear
I LOVE THIS!!! AND I LOVE COREY BOOKER! I get down and forget we are moving in the right direction. And that the ONLY way we continue to move in the right direction is to keep convincing people who see it differently. We must keep communicating! Corey Booker, you have seriously inspired me! And I needed that just now! Thank you!!!💜💜💜
"Someone should get that show cancelled"
Facking brilliant.
There is so much I love about this conversation. Mr.Stewart is interviewing to educate and to learn. Likewise Mr. Booker is powerdul, wise & graceful. I love the mutual respect that each one of these men show each other. I love the dialogue. The course corrections that were done to keep the conversation fair really helped me underatand how we overgeneralize each other. That is a trap in itself and its keeps us bitter and discouraged. I may not be able to do much but I realize that changing my own mind is the first vital step in changing humanity. We will all be better for it.
He's a joke. Pick better heroes, for your own sake
Well stated, Shuywanna. This is what I took away from this conversation too.
@@mbolduc really ignorant no person needs a hero PERIOD.
@@mbolduc Who are your heroes, do tell?
@@CountryB4Party Rafal Ganowicz
This was a beautiful interview to watch all the way from the UK I pray this energy and conversations happen over here 🙏🏾 ❤️
What a powerful message Senator. "...some people" rather than whites or blacks. Thank you
As a middle aged black woman, after watching this brilliant discussion; how am in more agreement with Jon Stewart that he seemed to completely get my view points and voiced all that I think is the problem in this country with white people and politics than with Black senator Cory Booker. Senator Cory Booker has some points and ideas of how to look at things, but I feel like he’s living with one foot in (current and past reality), and then one foot in an (imaginary)post-racism society. I just felt that Jon Stewart seemed to speak more of how I feel and see things than someone who looks like me. I just find it an odd and unsettling feeling. 🤷🏾♀️
The world felt like this middle age black woman. It's been middle age black men whom seem to keep tryna tip toe around things. Jus be straight up like Stewart he's JEWISH LOL 👁🤣 . Yes! it's the language in law dealing with the constitution which is also spiritual in science. Now on a masonic level yes you do have to find a way to touch or create empathy in the so-called white woman/man heart. It is jus sick to see the willi lynch manifest GENERATIONS LATER and The European society wonna act like we need to talk about racism. That may be true to some degree amongst themselves jus not with politicians that are MASTERS OF MANIPULATION! Tht look like us....FYI OUR PPL SPECIFICALLY NOT ALL IF YOUR TRYNA FIX THE PROBLEM BOOKER. WHEN YOU FOCUS ON US SPECIFICALLY THEN YOU FIX THIS ISSUE FOR ALL. SMH.
I think the answer is in communication and these discussions because different people will take different pieces away and grow. We need more discussions like this.
I agree, I don't know if it's because he's a politician or unrealistically optimistic but I found myself disagreeing with his opinions and reasoning quite often. He seemed to purposely disregard the reasons why his fellow law makers pass or block certain legislation if it impacts low income or minority communities positively.
E
I think Stewart is speaking honestly about reality. Booker, on the other hand, is speaking about how to get people to move forward within a certain paradigm. He doesn’t want a Revolution
49:22 Honestly this is why I love jon Stewart. Just the ability to ease the tension and get us all to relax a little when talking about a tense subject. It's so vital that we let our guard down for a second or else new ideas will never make it past our ego's defenses, and laughing is such a powerful way to do that.
The ability to kiss ass ,yes he jon is such a hero omg I just love him omg I better call everyone and tell them
Are u anti - racist?...this means how do u use your privilege to combat white supremacy and systematic racism
I love Jon Stewart. We need him out in the media more and more like him speaking out.
Thank you Corey Booker for your rigorous honesty, optimism and idealism. Please keep being bold and fighting for a better U.S. As I have learned more about the actual history of this country it has been hard to keep the hope and vision that you demonstrate.
Thank you Jon for your humility and inquisitiveness in making this conversation happen
Thank you Jon and Sen Booker for an amazing conversation.
Such a great conversation. Humanity, emotion, love, and the ability to have difficult conversations make us better.
And pure bullshit.
A great conversation indeed! One thing I noticed, but I understand it. For example, Senator Booker has to draw back on his language, because he knows he’s an elected official and has to careful about his words. Whereas, Jon is a smart man and Comedian, who doesn’t have to think about using the correct words. Therefore, I appreciate where they both are coming from and it was very fruitful!!
When I watched Jon’s The Daly Show, I loved it. Funny, insightful, inspiring, I thought. When he left, I had no Idea he
was going to continue this journey and
take us with him. And challenge us to be
better human being and citizens in gaging our nation to change it for a better good.
I think every time Jon got to a point where a truth had to be spoken he was sent in to a circle of stories.
Jon, I was able to attend a three day conference through my (employer) on systemic racism. It was enlightening , powerful & informative. I’m so glad you’re bringing this topic to the forefront. The group is called “ROAR” and they’re based in Chicago. It would be a great to have them on your show. I realize most people don’t have two or three days to attend a conference. I was lucky enough to be in nursing education at the time.
thank you for your shows.
Inspiring. I am brazilian and we are going through very dark and deep times here. Good to hear you.
Sending best wishes and hopes for peace.❤️🩹
"Dismantling racism is patriotic." It most certainly is. And I applaud all these patriots!
Racism is dead and gone. But somehow, you benefit by pretending it's alive.
Following laws is patriotic. Racism is a cudgel the left uses for control.
Yep. Racism has been dead for decades.
The fundamental problem with the way the left approaches racism is they exclusively view W people as the only individuals who are racist and B people as the only individuals at the receiving end of racism. However, much of the racism in America these days is B on A racism, as we’ve seen in the myriad hate crime attacks in NYC and SF. But this doesn’t fit the liberal mainstream media narrative
But what does it MEAN? These are the same people who call it racist to be on time. They call it racist to have a nuclear family (one of the tenets of BLM was to dismantle the nuclear family!). They call it racist to be into physical fitness. they call it racist to be concerned over the effects of obesity on the body.
"Dismantling racism" sounds great. But there's something deeper going on when they label LITERALLY everything as racist. And when you label everything that way, then say you want to dismantle it...all you're saying is that you want to destroy everything you see.
Amazing interview. We really need to discontinue 2min sound bite debates and make decisions on the basis of in depth interviews. Great job ❤❤❤
Riveting. I am very happy to have Jon Stewart and Cory Booker assist and guide my direction.
