And now, if you're under thirty, 3 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: you like who you know? Is a just a methad band, 4 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 1: specta deck master, Killa, ghost face killer, old dirty beast 5 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 1: that you still probably like who? 6 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 2: Now if you're over thirty, you like nine. 7 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 1: No wrong, one hundred and thirty six and probably much 8 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 1: more because Wu Tang Clan is actually a gang. But 9 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,319 Speaker 1: are the nine that wrapped the original nine? I mean, 10 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: what's the original? You know saying like who knows? 11 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:43,520 Speaker 2: Right? 12 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 1: It's a lot of them, though, I mean you gotta 13 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 1: think about King Justin and the Grave Diggers, like listen, 14 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: cap of Donna, y'all. It's a lot of members, and 15 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: they all got subcommittees. It's a whole thing. What about 16 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: the ASP Mob? How many of them are there? 17 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 2: Now? 18 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: Some of you might be like ASoP rocky, Well, what 19 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: about Yams and ferg Asop's a crew like that. They're 20 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 1: a mob ASoP Mob, It's a lot of them. Their 21 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:22,199 Speaker 1: names all start with ASoP something right or asap whatever 22 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: you want to do it. I'm so used to like 23 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: ASoP rock, but like as in like Asop's fables, anyway, 24 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: whole other genre of hip hop. The point is it's 25 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,559 Speaker 1: a lot of them. You know what I'm saying, what's 26 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: a gang? I mean, are there crips and bloods? Well, no, 27 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: there's a lot of different types of crypts, bloods. 28 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 2: Y're said, this. 29 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: Roller sixty crypts, then this West Side roller six their 30 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: neighborhood crips then and then their neighborhood sixty crioks. In Oklahoma, 31 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: in Kansas City, it's a lot of them. Gangs, clicks, sets, hoods, 32 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: it's a whole lot of them. 33 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 2: But somehow they all make sense. 34 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: And the way that those delegations work is quite confusing. 35 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 2: It's quite a network, but somehow, somehow it works. Somehow. 36 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: You ask anybody from grew up around this stuff, it's 37 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: not really hard stry to explain, but you get it. 38 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: Like if I were to say, Young Money is a 39 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: division of cash money millionaires, which was really a label, 40 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: but really actually it was all of this stuff that 41 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: bird Man put together and built the foundation upon Lil 42 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: Wayne and let Lil Wayne spouted out and did the 43 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: young money, but they all part of one group. It's 44 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: all cash money millionaires, but young Money is just somehow 45 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: all that makes sense, and Drake it all makes sense. 46 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 1: If I were to say Grave Diggers is a subgroup 47 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: that Rizis started as a members of Wu Tang clan 48 00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: somehow or another, that would make sense. What the hell 49 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: that is a caucus? And why is Ayawa was so important? 50 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: Let's talk about it hood politics, y'all?

Election season? You about to 90 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: hear all kind of names running up to this thing. 91 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: Besides just the players that are in the thing. You're 92 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 1: gonna hear stuff like the candidates and just announced candidates 93 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: are all gathering in Iowa for the caucuses to try 94 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: to get enough delegates to go into the primaries to 95 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: be selected as the primary elected official for the president 96 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: of the United States. But the Democratic Party needs super delegates, 97 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: and you're gonna hear all these turns and be like, niggas, 98 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: what the hell are you taking? Who are y'all sended? 99 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: What does any of this mean? And why everybyce, what's 100 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: up with Iowa? Why everybody so, why everybody's so worried 101 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: about Ale, Why everybody's so worried about New Hampshire? Seemed 102 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: like the little off brand states no disrespect, but I'm 103 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: pretty sure y'all skip this section of civics. Matter of fact, 104 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: according to the last report that didn't came out, nobody 105 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: knows civics. And I don't blame you because this stuff 106 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 1: be be mad convoluted, But when you in it, it 107 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: just kind of makes sense, just like I understand the 108 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: hieroglyphics relationship to Soul's a Mischief and why Dale is 109 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: the guy. It just I don't know, it just makes 110 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,359 Speaker 1: sense for some reason in the Dungeon family when I 111 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: talk about that as something different to outcasts, and how 112 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: Narls Barkley somehow plays a role in all that basically 113 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: because of Goodie Mob and see Lo Green, it all 114 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: makes sense. So today I'm going to talk to y'all 115 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: about I just want to teach y'all some vocabulary as 116 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: we go into this next season, for you to know 117 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: what the hell we talk about. What the hell is 118 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: a caucus, what's a delegate? Why do we need them? 119 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: Why IOWA? And why this matters? Just so you could 120 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: know what's happening. And again, ain't no test coming at 121 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: the end of this. This is at no actual class. 122 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: I just want you to know what they talk about 123 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: when they start talking. And again, as proven by the 124 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: main thesis of this show, you understand more than you 125 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: think you do. These are just very strange words. Are 126 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: you all ready to get into it? 127 00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 2: Let go? So I'm gonna immediately mix my metaphors here. 128 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: The season we're in now, like I'm gonna use the 129 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: sports analogy here. This is more like walk on tryouts. Right, 130 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: You're just trying to make the red shirt team, and 131 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: you know red shirts are usually just they're the practice team. 132 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: They're the team that scrimmages, the team that actually made 133 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: the team. Like, I know, if you're not in the sports, 134 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: that don't make no sense either, But essentially that's what 135 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 1: we're looking at right now. 136 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 2: These are walk on Like. 137 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: Some of these people have been recruited, some of them 138 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: just trying to get they shot. Some of y'all probably 139 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: not gonna make it out of summer league. You know, 140 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: some of you're gonna go down to the D League, 141 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: the G League, some of y'all gonna go play some 142 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: of the Bush league, minor stuff. But if you lucky, 143 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: you're gonna bet the main recruit, you're gonna make it 144 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: to the You're gonna make it to the squad. Now, 145 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: look though, but if you already on the squad, if 146 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: you already know you got a slot, ain't no point 147 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: you coming in those summer league stuff. You don't see 148 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: no ballers at the summer league game. Why you going 149 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: to tryouts. I'm already on the team. Now you might 150 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: get a Cinderella story like a Austin rei'es out this mug, 151 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: but like, if you already on the team, you ain't coming. 152 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 2: I tell y'all, quick little story. 153 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 1: I remember I had this gig at this uh small 154 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: It was probably like a D two college. That's Division 155 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: two if you don't know college out in I want 156 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 1: to say it was in Alabama. And the guy that 157 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: booked me knew I like playing balls, so he was like, Yo, 158 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: you want to come run with the team, Like I'm down. Yeah, yeah, 159 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: well you know you can come scrimmage with us before 160 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: we start practice. I was like, hell, yeah, let me 161 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 1: get some run in now. So I went to go 162 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: hoop with him, and I was super proud of myself 163 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 1: because I was like, you know, I was getting buckets, 164 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like I was holding my own. 165 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: It was pretty dope. Then the starters came. Turns out 166 00:09:55,960 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: wouldn't play with none of the starters. When I tell them, 167 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:04,119 Speaker 1: boys ran me up and down that court. The caliber 168 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: of cooping just jump so at. You don't look. If 169 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,199 Speaker 1: you don't already made the team, you ain't got to 170 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: come to none of this stuff. Trump said he ain't 171 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: going to Ohio with Caucus. He also said he ain't 172 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: doing the first few debates. He'd like nigga for what 173 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna see what I'm gonna see how y'all shake out. 174 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: It's great to do, but Iowa caucus. But all of 175 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: you are welcome to try out for this team. You're 176 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: not trying out for every team. You're just trying out 177 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: for this team. So you got people like Larry Elder, 178 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: you got Tim Scott, you got Now I'm focusing on 179 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: the Republicans because they're the ones that have to run 180 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 1: a primary like right now. The reason why you're not 181 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: hearing a lot about Democratic primaries, if you don't know 182 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: this already, is because we have an incumbent president. The 183 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: president right now is a Democrat. Generally, you usually don't primary, 184 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 1: which means run to be your party's choice for president, 185 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: when you already got somebody from your party as the president. 186 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: It's such a dis you know, it's such a vote 187 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 1: of like a vote of lack of confidence, like we 188 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: do not believe in you, you feel me, So it 189 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: just make your whole party look trash. 190 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 2: So generally you don't do that. 191 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: Now in this scenario, it's not that don't nobody hate 192 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. 193 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 2: It's that nobody loves Joe Biden. That's the difference. Right, So. 194 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 1: Your kind of hands are in a pretzel here, like, 195 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: I mean, what do we do? 196 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: This is our guy. 197 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: It's like the Lakers stuck with D'Angelo Russell right now. 198 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm a little I'm a little in pain 199 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: right now. I really wanted him to be the dude. 200 00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: I mean, we can't trade him either. Good, you gotta 201 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: match your salary. Anyway, I'm all over the place. The 202 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: point is right now, people trying to make the squad. 203 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: So these are the open tryouts. Now, what is a caucus? 204 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: So you have your big umbrella political party, right, so 205 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: you have Republican like it would almost be being. 206 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,199 Speaker 2: Like crip, you got this big thing, right. 207 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 1: And as you know how the parties work, each of 208 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: these parties have offices in different states, right, And inside 209 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: of those parties are committees, clicks sets you feel me, 210 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,199 Speaker 1: and each of those clicks and sets kind of hold 211 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: a different interest, a preference group, if you will. 212 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 2: They have a desire that they kind of lean towards. 213 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: Now for a caucuslet's see if I explain it like this, 214 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: try to say it as simple as possible. When we're 215 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: nominating a preferred candidate for the general election, the caucus 216 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: is the meeting of registered members of the political party, 217 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: and they're going to. 218 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 2: Select a delegate. 219 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: For their party's convention and hopes that these delegates will 220 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: then nominate the preferred candidate for representative for their party 221 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 1: in a general election. 222 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,079 Speaker 2: I know you just said, what. 223 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: Ed. Let me pull back and say why we use 224 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: the term caucus. The caucus actually just comes from a 225 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: club in Boston called the Caucus Club. It was an 226 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: informal eighteenth century political organization, right. But then it gets 227 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: real confusing because caucus is also used interchangeably as like 228 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: a subgroup or of members of Congress or state legislator 229 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: or a legislative body belonging to a particular faction. Right, 230 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: So like the freedom caucus. You know what I'm saying, 231 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: them the weirdos. Well, from my perspective them the weirdos. 232 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: But I'm not talking about that kind of caucus. I'm 233 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: talking about this kind of caucus, not the Caucasions. I'm sorry, 234 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: I'm just throwing in terms, making it even more confusing. Anyway, 235 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: caucuses they differ from a primary. But wait before I 236 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: get into that, let me go back and explain to 237 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: you what a delegate is, because again, caucus is a 238 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: meeting of registered members of a political party who select 239 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: delegates for their party's convention SOS. It's so convoluted, but 240 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: trust me, once you in there, it makes sense. 241 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 2: Okay. 242 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: So the delegate is the person or persons that represent 243 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: the state they come from. How you get them delegates 244 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: comes from state caucuses? 245 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 2: You following me? 246 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: So when you know when you see on TV the 247 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: Democratic National Convention or Republican National convisuating all them speeches 248 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. A lot of times them speeches, 249 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: them shows whoever they put like on like almost like 250 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: the direct support to the headliner. You feel me the 251 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: main opener, that dude who gives that speech. Usually you 252 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: could tell that that food's finna be next. That the 253 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: party is trying to like groom, like get this food 254 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: together because you fin to be you Finita be next. 255 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 1: It's it's it's Wayne putting Drake on a song, you 256 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, because he's like, look this boy 257 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 1: fin to be next. 258 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 2: People, you do it in music all the time. 259 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: You feature the person who you think finna be next 260 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: to try to give them that shine to shoot him 261 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: into the stratosphere. Right now, the Democratic Party and the 262 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: Republican parties select their delegates differently, and each delegate has 263 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: a certain amount of power differently, But whoever wins the 264 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: party's nomination to go into the open election, which means 265 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: you running against the other party, you're not running against 266 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: your own folk, who have to get a certain amount 267 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: of delegate votes. 268 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 2: You're following me. 269 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: But the delegate votes depending on the side of the state, 270 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: and how many delegate votes each state gets, goes to 271 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 1: the candidate. Now, the big difference with this part is 272 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: like how the delegate power is like distributed. Generally speaking, 273 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: in a Democratic caucus, the delegates are proportionally based on 274 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: their level of support for each candidate. What I'm trying 275 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: to say is, if you ain't got fifteen percent of 276 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: the room rocking with you, then essentially you're out right 277 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: you receive less than fifteen percent of the vote than 278 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 1: them supporters, because that you ain't you ain't gonna win 279 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 1: if you only got fifteen percent of your own folk. 280 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: Democrats like, ain't no way you're gonna win in an 281 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: open election like it. If we don't support you, we 282 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: on your team, ain't no point, Like this is a 283 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: waste of our time. So they like all right, fifteen percent, 284 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,679 Speaker 1: y'all gotta choose somebody else. It's like the person in 285 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:28,160 Speaker 1: the room that's like, yo, let's get some pineapple anchovy, 286 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: uh vegan cheese pizza. Like, you choose something else, Nigga, 287 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: your little points gotta get those people that were like that, 288 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 1: comprised that fifteen percent got to vote again and choose 289 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: somebody else because the dude they want it ain't gonna win, 290 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 1: So then it gets distributed among whoever other people, whereas 291 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: of the Republican it's just winner take off, whoever got 292 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: the most wins. You ain't got to like switch around 293 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: or nothing like that. That's just that's just one of 294 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: the big differences for delegate votes. 295 00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 2: Right now. 296 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 1: With all that being sick, keep in mind Trump lost 297 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: the Iowa caucus and it went on to be the president. 298 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,479 Speaker 1: So it ain't the end of the world if you lose, 299 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 1: you feel me. But we don't get to what the 300 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 1: Iowa caucus actually predicts later. But just remember that that 301 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: boy lost to Iowa caucus. 302 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 2: So the caucus. 303 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 1: Is choosing delegates that's gonna vote for their preferred person 304 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:30,719 Speaker 1: in the general election. 305 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 2: Right. 306 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: But again, this just Iowa is not the whole country. 307 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: It's just Iowa. And I don't say just Iowa pejoratively. 308 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:42,360 Speaker 1: I just mean like, it's only Iowa that we talking about. Now, 309 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 1: how does one caucus? What's so interesting about this is 310 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 1: it's like it's physical, like it's in person, Like you 311 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: really go into a building and you stand in groups. Right, 312 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 1: So it's like I mean, it's you create little clicks, 313 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: you create sets. It's like, yo, who's rocking with Nikki Haley? 314 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 1: Come stand over here? Right? So you go into it 315 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:09,160 Speaker 1: over there, and you stand over there and you really 316 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: talk about why you think this person is dope. And 317 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 1: as people are walking by, they literally going, yo, come 318 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: talk to us. Let me tell you what it's like. 319 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: Let me tell you why it's fool dope. Then they go, okay, 320 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: that's great, like a swap beat out this mug. Then 321 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:22,479 Speaker 1: you go to the other table and you be like, 322 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: oh yeah, they kind of cool too, right, And then 323 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: once you decide which one of these tables you want 324 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: to sit on. As a side note, obviously I'm talking 325 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 1: to people from states that don't caucus. Obviously, you from 326 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: a state to caucuss' this is ridiculous. You already know 327 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: all this stuff, but the rest of us are like, man, 328 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: what galli don't caucus anyway? You quite literally raise your 329 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: hand for the first vote. 330 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 2: It's like, it's like it's a very. 331 00:19:55,960 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: Physical sort of type of situation, like you. And then 332 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: sometimes they have a quiet ballot, right, and then so 333 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: they do three rounds of that quiet ballot just mean 334 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: like a secret ballot, meaning you don't actually raise your hands, 335 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: but they tally right, which. 336 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 2: One of these fools we like? 337 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,479 Speaker 1: And that's just the Iowa cock That's how the Iowa 338 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 1: cocus works. 339 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 2: So that's really it. 340 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 1: You register for your party and then like on a Tuesday, 341 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 1: you go to a gym and you sit around at 342 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 1: tables that represent the candidate that you kind of like, right, 343 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 1: you have the opportunity, and then you get to speak 344 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: on that person right on behalf of the presidential candidate, 345 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 1: because remember the presidents of candidate ain't. 346 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 2: Really they ain't in a room, you feel me. 347 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: And then the voting occurs again by show of hands 348 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: or through a secret ballot, and whichever candidate receives the 349 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: highest amount of support gets the highest number of delegate votes. 350 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,199 Speaker 1: And again, like I said, the Democratic Party a little different, 351 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 1: you know, they do, like, yo, if you below fifteen percent, 352 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: then that mean you got to move around and move 353 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: around them people because that man ain't gonna win or 354 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 1: that lady ain't gonna win. Now, is different types of caucasus. 355 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 1: As an open causus, which is like in a primary 356 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:13,239 Speaker 1: or caucus, all registered voters, regardless of party affiliation, are 357 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: permitted to vote in each party's contest. Right, there's a 358 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: closed caucus, right which you got to be registered within 359 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 1: the particular party that that primary that that president is 360 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: trying to primary. Then there's a semi open which you 361 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: allows participants to vote in either party of the presidential race, 362 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 1: but request a specific party ballot when you're identifying it. 363 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: And then there's a semi close where the same rules 364 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: are closed caucus while also permitting those who are non 365 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: affiliated to a party. So if you are unregistered to 366 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: any particular party, like you're registered independent, then you can 367 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 1: you could get into these early caucuses. Now, one of 368 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 1: you might ask, what's the difference between a caucus and 369 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: a primary election. They're actually very different because a primary election, 370 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: which occurs pretty much like a general election, with members 371 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: of both parties voting the secret ballot at Poland places. 372 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 2: Right, does that make sense? You ain't got to go 373 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,399 Speaker 2: in the no room and raise your hand. 374 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: It seems it's so crazy that that's the way they 375 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: do it, But look, it just it's a way to 376 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: have a visual representation, right. And I think one reason 377 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 1: why they's so important is because it's people. It's not 378 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:41,360 Speaker 1: like people that work for the candidate's office. Well it's 379 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 1: not only them. Obviously there's a lobbyists involved, but it's 380 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: not only workers for the candidate. It's the actual people 381 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: talking about why they actually rock with homeboy, a rock 382 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: with home girl. 383 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. 384 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: And you look in people in the eyes and you 385 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: actually sitting in a physical place is something that in 386 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: some ways I think it's kind of dolt that we 387 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 1: haven't let that go in our modern era. Now, the 388 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 1: next question is why Iowa, because there's other states that 389 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: do caucusing such a fun word, but why Iowa. Well 390 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 1: here's why, Because Iowa, just because of election cycle schedule, 391 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 1: they just happen to be first. It's really no magic 392 00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: to it. It's the beginning of the cycle and it 393 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: creates momentum for people. So if you can get a 394 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: buzz here out in the beginning, it betters your chances. 395 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 2: Now, does Iowa predict presidents? 396 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 1: Like I said, Trump lost to Iowa cockic meaning can 397 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 1: if you win Iowa, that's probably means you gonna win 398 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:27,719 Speaker 1: the primary and probably become president because generally foods who 399 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 1: don't do well in the Iowa coccus pretty much drop 400 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: out of the race. It's like, okay, what's the track record, right, Well, 401 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: the track record since nineteen seventy six was, you know, 402 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 1: when Jimmy Carter became president. He was the first Democrat 403 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 1: to win both the Iowa coccus and the White House 404 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: right and kind of be set the presidents or like 405 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: what they would say, like the Bell weather for how 406 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,479 Speaker 1: you try to predict like your chances in the future. 407 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 2: However, do it work though? 408 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: I mean, listen, since then, it's really only chosen fifty 409 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: five percent of the Democratic winners and forty three percent 410 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 1: of the Republican winners. One of the few exceptions is 411 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: a result in two thousand and eight when President Obama, right, 412 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: the underdog at the time, won the Iowa caucus and 413 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 1: then the Democratic nomination and then the presidency. But generally 414 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 1: it don't it's kind of random, like, I mean fifty 415 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 1: five and forty nine mean you got a fifty to 416 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 1: fifty chance, do you feel me? But for some reason, 417 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,679 Speaker 1: we still believe that it's that important, all because of 418 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: what Jimmy Carter did. Now, see, the thing about predicting 419 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: elections is the fact that it's so unpredictable. You know, 420 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: culture changes so fast and so drastically. No wonder people 421 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 1: are looking for something to try to make it make 422 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: sense because if not that of a job, like how 423 00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: do you set a you know more marketing campaign unless 424 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:08,239 Speaker 1: you're looking at all data. It's just the problem is 425 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 1: culture shift so much. Obviously, this ain't the same world 426 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 1: Jimmy Carter lived in. Who knows what's gonna happen out 427 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 1: of nowhere. Russia might decide to invade Ukraine. That's gonna 428 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: change everything, you know what I'm saying. Or you might 429 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:28,360 Speaker 1: you might get a reality show star facing fourteen criminal 430 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 1: charges that just happened to be the far and away favorite. 431 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:38,959 Speaker 1: You never know what's gonna happen. But these politicians, just 432 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 1: like all of us, are just trying to make sense 433 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 1: out of chaos. We're just trying to wrap our mind 434 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: around whatever's happening, hoping to find meaning in things we 435 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: don't understand. Sorry, y'all, I got real theological right now. 436 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: But you know God is good, and all my black 437 00:26:58,720 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 1: people just filled in that space. 438 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:04,479 Speaker 2: God is good. Find your nearest black friend and ask him. 439 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 1: The next question would be but still, though, you haven't 440 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: really made it clear as to why Iowa, because before 441 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: that Yoda Convention was in Chicago. The problem was that 442 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 1: was in nineteen sixty eight, after Lendon B. Johnson decided 443 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: he wasn't gonna run and guess what, there was a 444 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: dog on riot. 445 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 2: Homie. 446 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 1: You have to remember this was the summer of riots, right. 447 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: This was after doctor King was assassinated. This was actor 448 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: President Kennedy was assassinated. Robert Kennedy was assassinated. The country 449 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 1: was on fire. And listen, if you could take a 450 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: second to look at the nineteen sixty eight Democratic National Convention. 451 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna let you I'm gonna take a break 452 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 1: here and let y'all google this. Matt, go ahead and 453 00:27:50,160 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: play some music right here, big dog. I mean, there 454 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: was talks of like that one people uh huh, sending 455 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 1: like acid tripped out hippies and hookers into the party. 456 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 2: To try to like. 457 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: To try to sabotage these politicians. It was a riot 458 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 1: out that mug. Just just listen, go look this up. 459 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 1: I mean, this was this, This bug was legendary. The 460 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: reason why I got moved to Iowa just because they 461 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 1: didn't want to smoke. And the reason why Iowa First 462 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: is so important is just because it's first. I mean, 463 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: there's no magic, right, and it's supposed to be able 464 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: to create momentum, you know, And why it creates momentum 465 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 1: is because you almost get a feel of like what 466 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: the streets is saying about you, right, because it's actual 467 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 1: people making the claims based on whatever info you put out. 468 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: But it's folks trying to convince they neighbors, they friends, 469 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: they other community, the other community members. 470 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 2: Why they rock with this person. 471 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: So that's a So when you're caucusing, that means you 472 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: sitting at that table. 473 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 2: I'm part of this.
