He spoke this San Francisco saying he is in the race to take action on health care and immigration. Joining us live from San Francisco is tom steyer. Good afternoon. Nice to talk to you guys. Got word from your campaign you got called to jury duty. Have you been summoned to appear . I have been calling in everyday to see if they want me to come down. They have not asked me to. Big debate in texas next month, how confident are you that you are going to be on that stage with the other candidates. The rules are you need 130,000 individual donors which i have. You also need to get four polls as a certain level, three which i have and the other polls coming in have me substantially above the levels i need to be at but no one is running polls right now. We someone to run a poll this the early primary states and i will be in. If you are not on the stage do you continue your campaign . I will be on the stage. Somebody will run a poll and we are substantially above it. You are not each thinking if that doesnt happen you will drop out . Im not even thinking about. That i will be on the stage. Lets talk about being on that stage. Maybe you are not in the middle, towards the end, you are there and this from of the country and talking, how do you grab they tension of thation and Democratic Party and the energy thats out there . My basic thesis, mike, is we have a broken government. Corporations fought the government and what is necessary to restore democracy of by and for the people. As somebody working in politics a an outsider, for 10 years, taking on corporations, at the ballot box, registering voters and toning them out, i think im the pep who actually, the you want to restore government to the people b i have been doing it success there any here this california and across the country for 10 years, i dont think that change is going to come from inside the beltway but the grass roots. We head the Democratic Candidates try to connect, especially with Younger Voters about their struggles in life, their schooling, how do you as a Billionaire Hedge Fund manager connect with someone that might be young thinking what do i have this common with this guy . One thing you should know the organization i founded in 2018, last year, is the largest youth Voter Mobilization in american history. I think i have 10 years of working with young people and talking to them about the issues they most care about. Having said that, i am the person who on day one has pledged to call a state of emergency on the climate issue who said i will use the Emergency Powers of of the presidency to deal with it on day one and if you talk to people unter the age of 30, that is their number one issue. They know that we have to deal with the Climate Crisis right now forcefully. I think thats a place in the election where i should be really strong. How do you draw people to your personal story . I think two things. As an outsider i have been organizing people at the grass roots successfully to take on the corporations who fought our government for 10 years. I think the real question here is, if the message is a broken government and the message is, we need to be back the strangle hold that the corporations have on our democracy, i am the pen thats been doing that for 10 years as an outsider. You can trust me. Initially you didnt want to run and decided to get into the race, was there one specific thing that made you say, thats it, im in . Mike, i really couldnt sleep watching those debates because i felt as if they were very intelligent, thoughtful policy conversations about the nuances of things that are tremendously important, nuances of health care and the Green New Deal and policy and immigration but no conversation about why none of those things were getting done or had been getting done for a really long time. I felt as if we are not going to discuss what is important which is not which policy is the best, even though thats incredibly important, thats step two. The question is how are we going to get anything done given that our government is broken and a hostile corporate takeover. I felt with regards to climate, it is urgent we break that corporate strangle hold and got the talk about what is facing americans today instead of talking about policy nuances which would be incredibly important if we could get them done. The passion is there. We can see that in this interview, one more poll to go. A pleasure chatting with you this afternoon, thank you very much. Great to talk to you guys, the deadline to qualify, a week away, takes place at Texas Southern university in houston september 12th and 13th.
