and we know what works in the democratic party. you had john kennedy, jimmy carter, bill clinton, average age, 46. it s time for the republican party to at least entertain the notion of generational change in the party. people who are willing to take the case and show some contrast to the left. i think we should have a wide-open primary. so just to clarify, you have two arguments. a women in her 40s, somebody further on the right than the center? we need somebody who can win. mitt romney won one of the nine swing states. we know what doesn t work. i understand. but here s but this is what i don t understand. do you think ted cruz, as he plays to the white evangelical votes and basically talks about this being a christian nation, announcing this campaign that he can do better in these swing
the assembly and senate in texas and, guess what, ted cruz started at 2% in the polls. the margin of error is at 3%. the idea is that if you show contrast to the establishment in a primary, you may just prevail. okay. who would you vote for? i m not a media conservative. this is a reliable source here. if you had to come down to the final brackets were ted cruz and jeb bush, who would you vote for? me? yeah, you. oh, me. i m sorry. i thought you were talking to ted cruz. who would you vote for? ted cruz or jeb bush? i think having the third yes, having the third bush versus the first woman is going to attract 15 to 18% republican women and independent women to say, i m going with the first woman. i don t think that s a fair fight. i think arguing about how you prosper under the bill clinton
let me finish tonight with this battle for the mind of hillary clinton. my strong belief is that the former first lady, u.s. senator, and secretary of state, should do what she believes is right. does she believe charter schools and rigorous teacher standards are important or does she believe they undercut public education? does she believe trade is good for this country or does she believe in restricting it? secretary clinton has been focused on child development and education through much of her public career. she s a certified policy worker. she knows the issues, sees the flaws. the same goes for trade. for four years she had to deal with the economics foreign policy. the positive role of good open trade plays between countries. bottom line, secretary clinton has a great grounding and perspective on these matters and should take the position that this fits as closely as possible with her own policy judgments. the right position is the one she believes in.
resistance to what is happening. take trade. you see people left and right or the school policy where you can find republicans all around the country who are furious as the high-stakes testing regime, bureaucratic trend that you see big donors coming from. so actually i think it is really interesting what they were talking about because they are talking about populism, about hillary clinton actually speaking to middle class americans and i think that if she wants to, you know, show her leadership and get people out to vote, she s got to tap into her own populist core and she has done that. she s shown in from time to time. not as often as i d like to see it but i think it s essential for her to win, actually. that doesn t sound like bill clinton s approach in 92. so well, he hang on, zephyr. we re passionate centrists and we believe she is as well. when you see candidate clinton come out and she s not a
