1. This guy is awesome! Let's find out which district he lives in so we can draft him for Congress!

If 'JOE THE F#CKWIT' Wertzelbacher can run as a populist on the Republican ticket, this guy can sure find a base of support on a Democratic ticket. Especially given that he's very articulate.

11. I just asked that question in the other thread on his vid..

But I thought a Governors Chair may be more respectable. But for Congress? Absolutely!! Is he in FL?

13. I think he'd

do bigger and better things than becoming a politician. I don't doubt he'd do a great job, I just think he'd be more valuable in some kind of human rights role. But who knows? For sure he's better suited for something besides a bartender!

4. So what was with the James Carter the lV story?

Last edited Thu Mar 14, 2013, 12:09 AM - Edit history (1)

Did anybody explain that meme that was out there that Jimmy Carter's grandson was the one responsible for the 47% tape? President Obama even thanked him. And Jimmy Carter was on a show saying how proud he was of him. Was that just a cover story to keep Scott Prouty anonymous?
I missed the Ed Show but I watched Rachel and part of Lawrence O'Donnell and neither of them mentioned the James Carter angle. What's up with that?

5. Check this new DU thread below for your answer

Yes, Prouty did mention James Carter IV, along with David Corn/Mother Jones magazine.
Carter was/is on David Corn's staff.

16. Where are the other parts of the interview?

Links, please! If only for us people in the national forest without cable and huge broadband. I will suffer later this month for viewing this when I hit my 3GB limit.

But this interview is a must see.

Thanks.

It was worth it.

25. Please Excuse Me for interupting your video viewing.....

I'm just watching this again because this dude absolutely saved this country. I can't get enough of this.
Wait! He can guest host, or comment on MSNBC!!!! (then we can sneekly capture him to recruit for Congressional activities or for governor of a state)!
