Caller if they werent in prison they would be able toe feed their children. Host move on to patricia, minneapolis, minnesota, republican line, hi. Caller good morning.

Im a democrat, 70 years old that supports Bernie Sanders because i trust him but im dying to get your book. It looks like its humorous and informative. And i believe that donald trump is holding con candy. And thats appropriate because hes fluff and hot air. But i have a theory. Trump is a republican weapon of mass distraction. Hes a shill.

President obama and Michelle Obama didnt pay their Student Loans off until the year before went into the white house. We are shackling our young enormous amount of debt. Were charging them higher interest rates. Paying 7. 5 interest on my student loan, but my mortgage is 3. 87 . Why are we doing this . Loandressing the student and the rising cost of higher ed is key.
