relatability, too. what do you mean? in this case i m thinking back to when hillary clinton has given interviews talk about her love, shared love of hgtv shows and that s what we do. that s what regular people do. and there is a cultural relatability there and what transcends that is her record. what she s fighting for and what she cares about. sure, sure. that does feel like a different issue to me. whether or not she was qualified to be president. let me and this. you ve been with candidates. i want just ask and maybe this is a little mean, but it did feel like this. we remember in an interview with e gwyneth paltrow said the regular job to have a mom is not as challenging. it s not like being a mom on set and people are like, excuse me, did you say it s easier to be a working mom than an actress, it felt like hillary clinton turned herself into the gwyneth paltrow
caused reporters to speculate about her relatability leading up to the 2016 campaign. but she joins a long list of politicians whose comments on wealth have have fallen a little outside of the relatability spectrum. who can forget this moment from the 2012 campaign. you know, i m just saying, you re for individual mandates, my friend. you know what, you ve raised that before, rick, and you re certainly wrong. it s true now. rick, i ll tell you what. 10,000 bucks. $10,000 bet. i m not in the betting business, but i ll show you. the $10,000 just kind of off-hand bet and we ll be betting 10,000 here and there and then the moment when governor romney gave students in ohio some advice on how to start a business. we ve always encouraged young people. take a shot, go for it. take a risk, get the education.
and president clinton in running for re-election can t play the saxophone on tv because you re now a new person. the story has to change. you have to reintroduce yourself. it s okay to be wealthy. it s okay to inspire the american dream. that s what our presidents tell us we should. the question is whether or not you are authentic and whether or not you can still relate to the average person. there are a lot of wealthy people out there that a lot of people admire. take a look at bill gates and warren buffett and multi-bill n multi-billionaires that fly commercial and a certain sense of relatability and it is if they could still relate to that person. at the end of the day they had the relationship with american president because that person was perceived waking up every single morning fighting for me. they wanted to put money in your bank account. well, i think one thing we haven t talked about here is
left sewed in the 60s and we re now reaping where it s not good to be establishment. you want to be grass roots. you want to be of the people and, you know, like i said, we formented that on the left and now having an ivy league degree or having a ph.d. you have a ph.d. and want to run for elected office. it somehow is seen as ilegitimate. it s not just how much wealth you have, but how you got it. speaking fees seem yucky compared to like you built something or invented something. i disagree. no, i do think anything distasteful or very distasteful. let s talk about someone, mitt romney, whose capital experience was predicated on the tremendous outsourcing of american jobs overseas and americans reject that. but i have a question for you. what about like a mark zuckerberg or steve jobs steve jobs was a billionaire but had an everyday relatability.
more, but not every in a way, though, where that leader seems to be suggesting as much as i have, oh, i know what your struggle is, right? it s a little gimmicky i m going to live in public housing or eat a diet that i can only buy with food stamps. i think the key here is relatability. and, as you said, americans don t hate people who have wealth, as much as people want to accuse us of that. in fact, a lot of people aspire to be wealthy. the key is to own your wealth and not apologize for it but realize that others haven t had the same opportunities and haven t come from the same household of prisons. oreally relating and say, look, i know today working moms have it tough. he just had a big white house summit on balancing work families. let s talk a it alittle bit t that as it goes.
