I took on perpetrators of all kinds, so hear me when i say, i know Donald Trumps type. For kamala, Practicing Law was always about protecting the vulnerable and giving the victims a voice. I cant wait to see her prosecute the case against donald trump on the debate stage. In the courtroom, i stood proudly before a judge, and i said five words. Kamala harris for the people. My entire career, i have only had one client. The people. Harris aides see that record as an asset. Many voters now tuning back in, and they want to know, what did she do as a prosecutor .

Me if my tie was fixed but ok. I dont consider myself a journalist. Nobody else would consider myself a journalist. I began to take on the life of being an interviewer even though i have a day job of running a private equity firm. How do you define leadership . What is it that makes somebody tick . Games right . Ays no have most people i interviewed are people i have known for quite some time. In the case of jim mattis, i have never met the man before. I thought i better be careful when he i shook his hand but it was the opposite. I recognized quickly he has a certain reserve, a certain manner that would take someone want to follow him as a leader. I suspect had he never gone into the military would have been successful in business, politics as well. Great potential to be a leader in our country.

Good morning. My name is kevin gaines and its a pleasure to welcome you to the Miller Center for a conversation about the postpresidency of barack obama. In his farewell address, president obama spoke of threats to american democracy and called for an actively engaged and vigilant citizenry to preserve democracy. It falls to each of us, he said, to be those anxious, jealous, guardian of democracy, contemplating his future as a private citizen after the honor of serving his fellow americans. Obama pledged, as he put it, that he will be right, right there with you. As a citizen, for all my remaining days, he urged Young Americans to believe in themselves and their ability to effect change. We know what happened next. The Trump Administration sought to undo the policies of his predecessor, and at every turn, trump sought to undermine the democratic norms that obama had extolled and defended.
