Here to tell us more 86 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 1: as Heath Brown Assistant Professor of Public Policy at John 87 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: Jay College of Criminal Justice and the Graduate Center.

Heath Brown tell us about 90 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: the speakers at tonight's uh scheduled convention and what that 91 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: tells you about the effort of the Democrats to get 92 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: out the vote. Yeah. I think there's so many interesting 93 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: things that will see tonight that build off of what 94 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: we saw Monday night, highlighted by the participation of some 95 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: of the most visible political figures of the last number 96 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: of years, including the former president Bill Clinton. I think 97 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: that what we're going to see is the way in 98 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: which those figures can help to start to move the 99 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 1: campaign from the phase that we've been in, which is 100 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: choosing the candidate, to starting to turn out the vote. 101 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: And sometimes that's done with the motivation that comes from 102 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: seeing people like Bill Clinton and some of these other 103 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: very visible leaders take the stage and announce how they 104 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: see this election and why they see it as so important. 105 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 1: So I think that's some of what will see tonight. 106 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 1: M hmm. Well, I'm sure they want to ignore the 107 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 1: wiki leaks, uh leak on all the email from UH 108 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: in d n C. Now, of course w Wasser and 109 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: Schultz has stepped down as the head of the d 110 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: n C. But uh, to what extent does that somehow 111 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: have to be dealt with? To what extent does it 112 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: sort of linger? Um? And is it best just to 113 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: ignore it? Move on? Get Bernie Sanders supporters to your 114 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: supporters to not boo and Hillary Clinton's names mentioned? Um? 115 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: How do they deal with that part of it? Yeah? 116 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 1: I think what we're learning is conventions are not always tidy, 117 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: but they certainly can be exhilarating, and I think we 118 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:01,919 Speaker 1: saw that demonstrated on Monday with the untidiness of the 119 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 1: afternoon and in the exhilaration of the first ladies. Can 120 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: I just champion there though, because they're reporting The media 121 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: reported on their Republican National Convention bedlam when there there 122 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: was a role call vote that was overwritten, and I 123 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: thought to myself, doesn't anybody watch political conventions? I mean, 124 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: to me, it is exciting. It's interesting to see in 125 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: a way the discord in a and in both parties, 126 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: some real, active, active actions. That's I couldn't agree more. 127 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 1: I think think what we're what we saw last week 128 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: and what we're seeing this week is the Democratic Party 129 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: and the Republican Party last week trying to reconcile all 130 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: sorts of internal conflicts over the chosen candidate and also 131 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: policy in real time on television. I think this shows 132 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: us a side of politics that we don't often get 133 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: to see, which is some of these disagreements. I think 134 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: this is one of the reasons why I think simply 135 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: watching these conventions is good for our democracy, even if 136 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: they're not exactly they don't play out in the scripted 137 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,559 Speaker 1: way that we have come to a spect of political event. 138 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: I think those disagreements that that you're just you just 139 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: described make conventions a very very interesting part of the election, 140 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: and they they the messiness and the reconciliation of the differences, 141 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: including things like the wicked LEAs emails, is exactly what 142 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: makes them so very interesting. To the appearance of speakers 143 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: such as us a senator from New York, a Democrat, 144 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer, as well as former Secretary of State Madeline Albright, 145 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: a video message from a video message from former President 146 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: Jimmy Carter, and then I believe also an introduction by 147 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: Meryl Street. This is designed to give people in a sense, 148 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: speaking lines when they go out and try to get 149 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: people to the polls. Yeah, I think that's so interesting 150 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: in some ways. I think what we see at the 151 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: convention is the the largest and most visible focus group 152 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: that a party can hold. And so they know they've 153 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: got a number of months before their election and they 154 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: have to do political advertise eismans, and they have to 155 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: write stump speeches, they have to create the content of 156 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: their argument to the American people. They have this opportunity 157 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: to try out lots of different lines, different angles of attack, 158 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: different images that they might want to put put into 159 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: those ads, and I think we see that we've even 160 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 1: testing it with the amount of applause that comes from 161 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: the convening, from the reaction on social media, from the 162 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: response of pundit, and I think that for that reason, 163 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: exactly what you suggest is right. We see what might 164 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: work and might what might ring flat, and over the 165 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: next couple of months, we'll see that replayed numerous times 166 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 1: as the actual candidates go out onto the stump trying 167 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: to win votes. You entwers have made my question, Heath, 168 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: we saw Donald Trump getting a post convention bounds, moving 169 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: ahead of a CNN pull the last couple of days 170 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: for each candidate, what is the number one issue that 171 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: they are going to hammer on to be the one 172 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: that wins the race in November. Well, I think it's 173 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: really two too early to see that, but I think 174 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: in the convention, in the convention this week, we see 175 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: the Democrats starting to play a couple of these out. 176 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: I think that the repetition of the video and the 177 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: image of Donald Trump apparently making fun of a reporter 178 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 1: during the campaign is something that seems to be uh 179 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: an issue and an angle that the Democrats appear to 180 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: care about. And I think one of the interesting angle 181 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,319 Speaker 1: aspects of that is that this connects to another thing 182 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: that was going on last night and we'll go on 183 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: again today, which is the Democrat taking credit for some 184 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: of their policy victories, like the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. 185 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,079 Speaker 1: That's something I think they're going to hit back on it. 186 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: Keith Brown, thank you so much for joining us, Assistant 187 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: Professor of Public Policy at the City University of New York. 188 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 1: That's tuney looking at the Democratic National Convention for US today. 189 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: I'm Caffeine Haslam with PM Fox. Is this taking Stock 190 00:10:55,160 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: on Bloomberg Radio? And this is Bloomberg coming up on 191 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: taking Stock, PlayStation's Xbox, the twenty three billion dollar video 192 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: game industry. How you can play to win. That's next
