Next weekend. Have a great night story. I m anderson cooper, the spread of misinformation and conspiracy theories is fleurus, the rise of online social platforms that cater to extremist views with little to no regard for what s true and what s not cnn s donie o sullivan has spent years talking to people who ve fallen for these conspiracy theories. But tonight he s focusing on a group of people you probably haven t heard from young men who were once liberal democrats, but have changed their views and some pretty surprising ways they say after becoming disillusioned with politics time at conferences and there s a subtle arche to a successful like making sure there s plenty of refreshing creating room for stimulating conversation at a good conference, you can feel like you re at home but sometimes conferences mixed bag remember the year she had a got it, sometimes you get a warm welcome.

these folks who are running, i can t tell you what the major idea with the exception really of senator elizabeth warren. the democrat from massachusetts and she came out with a tax policy you might think it s crazy and not crazy enough, you might love it, you might hate it but you know what she stands for and that is, you know, i think senator harris, senator camilla hard ra kamala harris had a great launch this isn t a personality contest, this is about ideas. people misunderstand and focus the on the personalities too much the only primary that matters is the ideas primary and every time there is a big change in american politics, whether it s ronald reagan or donald trump or bill clinton, they actually came in with a new agenda that surprised people that maybe solved problems that hadn t been addressed before that shook up the policy architecture and typical for people to say nobody cares about that stuff if donald trump had not talked
