into the economy at some point. that has to be conveyed by the president as he makes this argument. how do you respond on the political side? there are a lot of those saying this is a win/win politically for democrats and therefore everyone is pushing it, because either you succeed in upping the minimum wage, or you succeed essentially in making republicans who are opposed to this look bad because they're giving up on these people who would be benefiting from it. >> you know, separate from looking at d versus r, let's look at what the american people think. i think there's polling which demonstrates that 70% of the american public supports this kind of increase in the minimum wage. that's a majority of both parties. combined with 50 economists who have come out strongly in support of it in a joint letter. so both the politics and the economics, the people and i think the experts strongly support this. and i think if you look back historically, every president with the exception of reagan and ford, who was president for a short period of time, signed an increase in the minimum wage. so it's time for this to happen
