don't understand politics necessarily. as i said it's a creative writing class. that was one heck of a creative lecture. >> caleb, thank you. our political panel is back. all right. jason, what do you think? >> i think the professor is taking his cues from president obama and attorney general eric holder. who are pretty much out there saying the same thing. a little more polished but essentially the same thing. they are lying to certain groups, certain parts of their base in hopes of scaring them to the polls in november. lying to blacks about voter suppression. lying to women about sexism driving the gender pay gap and so forth. obama and holder went up to harlem to kiss can al sharpton's ring saying this in front of a black audience about whites, about conservatives. al sharpton is perhaps the most racially polarizing figure in this country. and here they were, countenancing the types of activism that al sharpton is doing. i don't think the professor is saying much different than thanks i guess i never listened to my college professors. maybe that's self-evident.
