0:00:00.120,0:00:02.700
for in the constitution in the immediate future

0:00:02.700,0:00:09.659
and how in fact we do so that increasing this

0:00:09.659,0:00:14.599
thank you and out you're starting year with
up

0:00:14.599,0:00:20.919
the bomb think it was turning up are all right
bill thank you very much there and think that

0:00:20.919,0:00:22.199
that's a good question

0:00:22.199,0:00:23.760
here is the honest answer

0:00:23.760,0:00:27.119
we have of nearly six billion dollars shortfall

0:00:27.119,0:00:28.520
in the next by and him

0:00:28.520,0:00:32.899
and to suggest that we are going to be able
to to use that money to significantly

0:00:32.899,0:00:35.280
those which in in the short term

0:00:35.280,0:00:36.760
he is an honest you

0:00:36.760,0:00:38.840
and and so I don't think that problem

0:00:38.840,0:00:41.780
but here's what we can do and what we need
to do in the long term

0:00:41.780,0:00:45.530
I think first of all we need to make sure
that we are investing in our great through

0:00:45.530,0:00:46.440
your schools

0:00:46.440,0:00:51.059
so that students an eleventh and twelfth grade
conspiracy in college classes

0:00:51.059,0:00:52.969
and the twelfth grade graduates

0:00:52.969,0:00:56.010
to move into their to your schools

0:00:56.010,0:00:58.390
upstart taking the generals at a lower cost

0:00:58.390,0:01:01.100
with seamless transition into for your schools

0:01:01.100,0:01:05.220
but I believe we also need to take a look
at are haired he can cause

0:01:05.220,0:01:10.110
and and figure out how do we reduce the cost
other we've reduced maybe the number of major's

0:01:10.110,0:01:11.409
in some campuses

0:01:11.409,0:01:13.110
if we can reduce the overhead

0:01:13.110,0:01:15.230
how do we lower the cost of other ways

0:01:15.230,0:01:19.650
so that we can of Florida that we need to
look at the the programs that have worked

0:01:19.650,0:01:21.420
including the student grant program

0:01:21.420,0:01:25.670
and eventually found those that at the levels

0:01:25.670,0:01:26.990
and are

0:01:26.990,0:01:31.619
and some leadership in that the higher education
at a ad

0:01:31.619,0:01:32.260
institutions

0:01:32.260,0:01:35.859
like a always point it's the findings be the
only problem

0:01:35.859,0:01:38.300
and I you know state funding is not

0:01:38.300,0:01:39.570
the only problem

0:01:39.570,0:01:44.139
in fact it's not necessarily a matter of not
having enough of state funding

0:01:44.139,0:01:45.550
because they'll never be enough

0:01:45.550,0:01:49.270
%uh it's not a matter of students not being
able to pay

0:01:49.270,0:01:53.110
it's a matter of are higher education institutions
not

0:01:53.110,0:01:53.539
delivering

0:01:53.539,0:01:55.250
an affordable price

0:01:55.250,0:01:59.119
they've got to start looking at their own
overhead expenses you heard Senator didn't

0:01:59.119,0:02:01.009
talk about how the means to system

0:02:01.009,0:02:04.080
but has the third highest wishing in the country

0:02:04.080,0:02:08.619
this is an issue that we all have to work
on but the people that are running these institutions

0:02:08.619,0:02:10.069
really have to start looking

0:02:10.069,0:02:13.540
at their administrative costs and looking
other delivering education

0:02:13.540,0:02:17.520
in the future it should be probably more so
smaller staff more efficient

0:02:17.520,0:02:20.370
I'm more at consumer were still standard

0:02:20.370,0:02:25.560
that we should find other ways that with technology
to start delivering are educate are higher

0:02:25.560,0:02:27.799
education opportunity

0:02:27.799,0:02:29.039
the group the

0:02:29.039,0:02:32.759
mister warner that the honest answer is you
recognize that we have to

0:02:32.759,0:02:37.969
well a five point eight billion dollar projected
triple next miami for to have the dollars

0:02:37.969,0:02:38.609
in the in the

0:02:38.609,0:02:41.109
yeah area and

0:02:41.109,0:02:42.939
well let's let you do that

0:02:42.939,0:02:44.359
and as the

0:02:44.359,0:02:48.749
minnesota economy the US economy but hopefully
improve in the years ahead more resources

0:02:48.749,0:02:50.100
are available

0:02:50.100,0:02:51.430
education's would be absolutely

0:02:51.430,0:02:56.099
and I want her to recognizes it's an early
early childhood

0:02:56.099,0:02:58.379
the twelve and higher education

0:02:58.379,0:03:01.869
the purpose of our that we're going to need
to look for administrative efficiencies so

0:03:01.869,0:03:06.379
again make sure that every education dollar
possible is going to your education

0:03:06.379,0:03:10.579
and it which is what should be the priority

0:03:10.579,0:03:14.560
I could follow up are asking all three of
you us something that representative

0:03:14.560,0:03:19.659
anwar highlighted and that is technology what
is your position on about

0:03:19.659,0:03:20.969
online education on

0:03:20.969,0:03:26.659
%uh atwater benefits and water your concerns

0:03:26.659,0:03:29.030
well I think all the research has shown that

0:03:29.030,0:03:30.969
%uh the the

0:03:30.969,0:03:34.690
%uh introduction of online education

0:03:34.690,0:03:36.099
has great value

0:03:36.099,0:03:38.590
there's great value mostly as access

0:03:38.590,0:03:42.599
and it doesn't reduce costs and in fact a
lot of hype online forces

0:03:42.599,0:03:46.049
are actually more expense of to to deliver

0:03:46.049,0:03:49.280
we should still do it because they are important
values in access

0:03:49.280,0:03:52.769
we ought to look at some of the hybrid classes
that have been very successful

0:03:52.769,0:03:56.000
we ought to make sure that we have the the
taxes

0:03:56.000,0:03:58.530
but part of that then is that we also have
to look at

0:03:58.530,0:04:01.329
how do we make sure that we have high speed
broadband

0:04:01.329,0:04:04.839
%uh internet connections available around
minnesota

0:04:04.839,0:04:10.069
we hope we can do that as a private investment
but in some areas it may take a public investment

0:04:10.069,0:04:12.700
you know online works only yes

0:04:12.700,0:04:15.209
you can get the the high ground on speed

0:04:15.209,0:04:16.349
and so again

0:04:16.349,0:04:19.550
it's it's an he answered that doesn't a question
that doesn't have

0:04:19.550,0:04:21.400
one need simple answer

0:04:21.400,0:04:23.449
it involves a whole variety of things

0:04:23.449,0:04:26.349
some of which include government

0:04:26.349,0:04:28.240
I think that ethic

0:04:28.240,0:04:33.389
I think it's a shame to suggest that %uh online
which is just in its infancy is

0:04:33.389,0:04:38.089
really not part of the solution because it
cost just as much more not conceive session

0:04:38.089,0:04:39.099
since I think of that

0:04:39.099,0:04:40.689
it's and we probably won't

0:04:40.689,0:04:44.000
I think that we have to trust the people that
are running

0:04:44.000,0:04:46.650
the senate higher education institutions

0:04:46.650,0:04:51.360
to understand that their jobs to do but they're
not only a high quality education

0:04:51.360,0:04:54.869
but also to deliver it at a cost that people
can afford

0:04:54.869,0:04:58.110
the jacket I have seven gets I've done that

0:04:58.110,0:05:01.739
it's not going to be a cheap but investment
for us for our kids

0:05:01.739,0:05:05.039
to go to college and pay for it but you know
what it's worth it to do

0:05:05.039,0:05:08.560
we have to trust other people have run these
institutions to understand

0:05:08.560,0:05:12.770
they're probably cost just like we have to
get ahold of them at the state level in government

0:05:12.770,0:05:15.910
they've got to get a hold of them here the
catch is keep saying it's to wish in

0:05:15.910,0:05:19.930
they've got to look for those efficiencies
and new delivery systems to offer of a great

0:05:19.930,0:05:25.539
higher at Africa after two days of minnesota's
come to enjoy

0:05:25.539,0:05:27.319
his access

0:05:27.319,0:05:32.299
those but lot more degrees is otherwise of
couldn't actually get physically to a campus

0:05:32.299,0:05:33.929
I have a twenty two

0:05:33.929,0:05:35.789
you have verification

0:05:35.789,0:05:37.039
and the benefits of that

0:05:37.039,0:05:40.009
I would have to the jurors was faulty

0:05:40.009,0:05:43.310
and the second is a the the old-fashioned
work ethic

0:05:43.310,0:05:49.179
for those of who can get a campus I I think
there's a real benefit to be cutting enough

0:05:49.179,0:05:50.729
good morning anne

0:05:50.729,0:05:53.759
go to school with you have to get up go to
work them

0:05:53.759,0:05:54.369
and the

0:05:54.369,0:05:57.500
having said earlier been trying to see people
working

0:05:57.500,0:05:59.320
hundred hundred forty hours a week

0:05:59.320,0:06:02.050
%uh the the the the competition

0:06:02.050,0:06:04.869
the old you're going to face in this global
economy

0:06:04.869,0:06:08.580
is going to be greater challenge that we've
had the previous so

0:06:08.580,0:06:10.869
part of that I think is a

0:06:10.869,0:06:14.359
of the on campus education

0:06:14.359,0:06:16.429
on out here

0:06:16.429,0:06:19.270
and we're starting to hear but for November

0:06:19.270,0:06:24.319
my name's you I'm a journalist and me just
that he's making

0:06:24.319,0:06:27.529
and the managing editor minutes of fame

0:06:27.529,0:06:33.359
in light of of recent suicides among students
gave rights has received a lot of attention

0:06:33.359,0:06:36.490
what would you do for gave rights and so

0:06:36.490,0:06:38.680
in terms of that

0:06:38.680,0:06:41.249
in terms of what

0:06:41.249,0:06:43.779
in terms of legislation

0:06:43.779,0:06:48.159
draft statement you know what all these issues
are very important and if you're talking about

0:06:48.159,0:06:52.999
day the of bullying legislation that was brought
up that that one of our last debate since

0:06:52.999,0:06:54.270
I've said before

0:06:54.270,0:06:58.550
I and I don't know how many people know this
but we are not happily

0:06:58.550,0:06:59.929
legislation in this state

0:06:59.929,0:07:03.039
we already have about policies in place that

0:07:03.039,0:07:06.959
but school boards are spin school administration
are supposed to set

0:07:06.959,0:07:10.470
in place policies to deal with issues and
having to do with

0:07:10.470,0:07:13.329
only harassment making people feel uncomfortable

0:07:13.329,0:07:14.479
for any reason

0:07:14.479,0:07:19.499
I think the bigger issue for us going forward
is to started hollering are teaching professionals

0:07:19.499,0:07:20.620
and now

0:07:20.620,0:07:22.209
parents other adults

0:07:22.209,0:07:27.499
so they don't fear a a loss to every time
a step in and try to solve the problem

0:07:27.499,0:07:31.510
let's separate fact and so they feel that
they have the authority to step in

0:07:31.510,0:07:35.550
and stop tragedy before it ever occurs and
I think that's the next step

0:07:35.550,0:07:38.280
as far as the governor of the state of minnesota
going forward

0:07:38.280,0:07:45.280
but made it very clear you think the governor
this is that's an issue for all us absurd

0:07:45.939,0:07:47.069
I heard it

0:07:47.069,0:07:51.349
I support the and I believe legislation I
think it's a terrible tragedy that young people

0:07:51.349,0:07:52.780
are taking their lives

0:07:52.780,0:07:56.169
was there sexual orientation harassment blowing
that

0:07:56.169,0:07:57.489
takes place a

0:07:57.489,0:08:02.569
as a James madison said many years ago of
memory angelos government would not be necessary

0:08:02.569,0:08:07.259
the government is necessary for the government
to step in and make it very clear here in

0:08:07.259,0:08:08.189
minnesota

0:08:08.189,0:08:12.660
any kind of bigotry here racial intolerance
or religious intolerance her

0:08:12.660,0:08:14.450
dallas victory based on

0:08:14.450,0:08:16.500
sexual orientation is absolutely

0:08:16.500,0:08:17.940
it did in the state

0:08:17.940,0:08:21.620
and %uh on governor I use every moral authority
that office to make it

0:08:21.620,0:08:23.659
very very clear about everything I do it

0:08:23.659,0:08:25.240
and they can send that message

0:08:25.240,0:08:26.960
i'll support murder quality

0:08:26.960,0:08:31.210
I believe in the founding principles this
country that all men are created equal

0:08:31.210,0:08:34.510
now the creator with certain unalienable rights
among those are

0:08:34.510,0:08:37.340
life liberty the pursuit of happiness and
that's what we ought to include the right

0:08:37.340,0:08:38.550
of him

0:08:38.550,0:08:45.550
mericans it isn't a very good person that
he or she wants

0:09:02.300,0:09:03.910
all right

0:09:03.910,0:09:09.070
my father was one of the %uh first the TV
and radio personalities in this market

0:09:09.070,0:09:11.490
and when he died a few years ago

0:09:11.490,0:09:14.839
now little was one of the state's great civil
rights leaders

0:09:14.839,0:09:17.120
on this story that I haven't heard before

0:09:17.120,0:09:21.820
he said that he could always count on my dad
in the nineteen forties and nineteen fifties

0:09:21.820,0:09:25.189
when minnesota wasn't a very hospitable place
to people of color

0:09:25.189,0:09:26.810
you could always count on him

0:09:26.810,0:09:30.380
the emcee the N double ACP freedom fund dinner

0:09:30.380,0:09:34.640
and I've never heard that story before that's
the the environment that I grew up in

0:09:34.640,0:09:36.520
so I do believe that we ought to

0:09:36.520,0:09:39.410
the in on past the upheaval in legislation

0:09:39.410,0:09:42.630
but I also just believe that we need to be
a spate of a quality

0:09:42.630,0:09:45.010
I think we need to integrate it into our culture

0:09:45.010,0:09:47.580
and I do think that we need to have March
quality

0:09:47.580,0:09:50.280
I think we need to have respect for all people

0:09:50.280,0:09:55.769
and that gets back to the the issue of immigration
this be a state that is welcoming

0:09:55.769,0:09:58.029
the opens its doors to diversity

0:09:58.029,0:10:05.029
that respects all people and celebrates their
differences

0:10:06.120,0:10:07.190
all right

0:10:07.190,0:10:10.980
well briefly to be fair if you were governor
you would sign into law if the legislature

0:10:10.980,0:10:12.420
bright new legislation

0:10:12.420,0:10:15.210
I am on about gay marriages

0:10:15.210,0:10:18.879
yes mean I've already been working out of
both the black community service career

0:10:18.879,0:10:20.599
as both my professional career

0:10:20.599,0:10:24.440
our have made it very clear that this is happening

0:10:24.440,0:10:29.360
it's important to a lot of people every issue
is important that way somebody

0:10:29.360,0:10:32.250
this issue I've got a yen a clear

0:10:32.250,0:10:35.080
and history where I stand on the issue of
marriage

0:10:35.080,0:10:37.820
but this election this campaign

0:10:37.820,0:10:41.110
has to be focused on getting this sort of
moving again

0:10:41.110,0:10:43.520
that's what we've been talking about for months

0:10:43.520,0:10:45.470
if doctor create

0:10:45.470,0:10:52.470
odds again in the state of minnesota that's
what the next governor should be focused on

0:10:58.580,0:11:01.560
I've heard

0:11:01.560,0:11:02.750
thank you so much

0:11:02.750,0:11:06.880
the next day my name is a bull market for
sure public policy statement conference to

0:11:06.880,0:11:08.190
of public affairs

0:11:08.190,0:11:12.460
and also the vice President for public affairs
for the graduate professions to assembly

0:11:12.460,0:11:17.130
I mean the question is the university of minnesota
is a leader on research in sustainability

0:11:17.130,0:11:17.639
initiatives

0:11:17.639,0:11:19.700
both nationally and internationally

0:11:19.700,0:11:24.760
how would you see you around a further minnesota's
inevitable transition to a clean energy economy

0:11:24.760,0:11:28.560
and more importantly how would you pay for

0:11:28.560,0:11:30.340
we'll start here with honored

0:11:30.340,0:11:34.590
the factual question because there's so much
about the opportunity that the the an urgent

0:11:34.590,0:11:37.279
challenges presents the state in our opportunity
to lead in

0:11:37.279,0:11:42.470
the said earlier I would issue of on not for
a nonbinding goal but of state lines

0:11:42.470,0:11:44.580
it would create a revolving loan fund

0:11:44.580,0:11:45.770
in a stark the

0:11:45.770,0:11:50.690
with the state colleges and universities buildings
as a central area the interests of minnesota

0:11:50.690,0:11:51.420
morris

0:11:51.420,0:11:56.250
look at that those buildings rita that he
quit systems use alternative energy

0:11:56.250,0:12:00.910
and of pollutants successful project appears
with energy savings in five to seven years

0:12:00.910,0:12:03.430
is that when he comes back to the revolving
loan fund

0:12:03.430,0:12:05.059
would you point out to us

0:12:05.059,0:12:09.239
local governments of for their buildings and
for schools for their buildings in state government

0:12:09.239,0:12:10.479
for its buildings

0:12:10.479,0:12:15.140
and in a decade we could transform the public
sectors use of energy in minnesota

0:12:15.140,0:12:16.210
save money

0:12:16.210,0:12:17.020
and also

0:12:17.020,0:12:20.800
of create alternative energy industry then
I would go as governor two

0:12:20.800,0:12:22.270
the company is a

0:12:22.270,0:12:26.600
is that what's the mood that field or new
companies say look we have a we have a proven

0:12:26.600,0:12:30.530
and twenty-year commitment in minnesota using
alternative energy

0:12:30.530,0:12:37.530
look at your operation your manufacture here
in minnesota

0:12:37.860,0:12:42.480
I do believe that that we need to transition
away from subsidies for alcohol

0:12:42.480,0:12:43.180
I think that

0:12:43.180,0:12:48.349
at it is not a program that has returned that
is returning value to to minnesota today

0:12:48.349,0:12:50.889
now we needed to respect the contract they're
out there

0:12:50.889,0:12:54.779
the the subsidies expired twenty thirteen
and I would have the new them

0:12:54.779,0:12:58.379
instead I do believe that we need to be making
investments in research

0:12:58.379,0:13:00.350
and look what's already going on

0:13:00.350,0:13:04.710
of central lakes college with the to aids
center and staples is going from

0:13:04.710,0:13:06.760
mendez work environment

0:13:06.760,0:13:08.860
ground breaking work that will open new doors

0:13:08.860,0:13:12.050
the university of minnesota morris in when
energy

0:13:12.050,0:13:12.779
around the state

0:13:12.779,0:13:17.329
I think that's what we need to make our investment
in research and then let the the marketplace

0:13:17.329,0:13:18.319
take over

0:13:18.319,0:13:20.509
I'm but we also need to integrate into that

0:13:20.509,0:13:23.880
a reminder that the cheapest energy is conservation

0:13:23.880,0:13:26.910
and so we ought to have that as as a high
priority

0:13:26.910,0:13:30.480
but I also want to go backwards in November
to what you just want to say

0:13:30.480,0:13:33.029
one of the reasons I'm no longer a republican

0:13:33.029,0:13:38.610
that's because the party that thinks that
economic development fiscal responsibility

0:13:38.610,0:13:45.610
and equality are conflicting opinions is not
a party to that commitment longer belonged

0:13:55.130,0:13:58.930
why respected just like give respect anybody
else way you

0:13:58.930,0:14:01.020
my is quite simply

0:14:01.020,0:14:03.880
we've got to start working on the things that
we all agree on

0:14:03.880,0:14:07.760
and the thing that we have to all agree on
is that we can't just keep doing what both

0:14:07.760,0:14:09.049
of you are proposing

0:14:09.049,0:14:12.490
which is just keep calling government and
unsustainable rates

0:14:12.490,0:14:15.230
that's these people out here that are school

0:14:15.230,0:14:16.390
it's your death

0:14:16.390,0:14:17.780
it's your future

0:14:17.780,0:14:22.399
you are spending it by raising taxes yet again
and growing government even more

0:14:22.399,0:14:27.060
you're creating more of it that that will
put and and the shoulders of these young people

0:14:27.060,0:14:30.720
were going to send out into the world as soon
as they get out of this great institution

0:14:30.720,0:14:31.120
talent

0:14:31.120,0:14:34.860
now goal realize your greatest range but there
are going to be the dreams there because they're

0:14:34.860,0:14:37.410
going to be paying are that for years to come

0:14:37.410,0:14:41.440
how do you address the yet the issue that
you talk about you just get it

0:14:41.440,0:14:46.200
the university of minnesota has a great tradition
as a we should research university it's got

0:14:46.200,0:14:48.129
a worldwide reputation

0:14:48.129,0:14:50.959
as a top-notch research university

0:14:50.959,0:14:53.880
we've got a good sense more private

0:14:53.880,0:14:55.810
university of minnesota partnerships

0:14:55.810,0:15:01.200
it will start to move us that whatever opportunities
out there for new alternative energies

0:15:01.200,0:15:08.200
in we've got to let the marketplace work

0:15:10.660,0:15:15.920
I have a lot of things going on in this question
here on I want to follow up first out with

0:15:15.920,0:15:18.549
regards to happen often in this report are
brought up

0:15:18.549,0:15:23.529
and it on Senator dayton and represented dahmer
could quickly responds on a variety of support

0:15:23.529,0:15:27.110
that process just as mister boehner on as

0:15:27.110,0:15:30.690
was worth it university of simpson

0:15:30.690,0:15:36.280
while it's a non-issue in the state of minnesota
we keep talking about it but in fact and subsidies

0:15:36.280,0:15:40.060
and about forty million dollars right now
what about three hundred million

0:15:40.060,0:15:44.520
%uh and in veterans budget that was passed
the state of minnesota that fourteen million

0:15:44.520,0:15:47.000
was a promise that was made way back

0:15:47.000,0:15:51.220
%uh it's running out right now so that the
this statement that I'm against subsidies

0:15:51.220,0:15:55.920
has great that there could be any more subsidies
night the in the next five and they're being

0:15:55.920,0:15:58.200
paid off right now in going forward

0:15:58.200,0:16:02.120
right now there's an issue at the federal
level as to whether or not they will be sent

0:16:02.120,0:16:03.230
cities four

0:16:03.230,0:16:08.509
but whether there will be legislation to try
to create more popped more I I producer palms

0:16:08.509,0:16:11.560
so that there can be more of a marketplace
not just for ethanol

0:16:11.560,0:16:17.290
but for any biofuels that any other fuels
the idea is that day you should be able to

0:16:17.290,0:16:18.639
choose if you're a consumer

0:16:18.639,0:16:23.459
you should be a little to your local left
filling station and with the flex fuel vehicle

0:16:23.459,0:16:26.649
it looked sure was at some point within the
next decade

0:16:26.649,0:16:31.539
whichever is that she's cheapest source of
energy to run that vehicle that's the marketplace

0:16:31.539,0:16:33.330
retracted

0:16:33.330,0:16:38.690
thank you and one attacks on something that
has to do with not leadership in the governor's

0:16:38.690,0:16:38.999
mansion

0:16:38.999,0:16:40.470
I think somalia

0:16:40.470,0:16:45.389
pretty clear that the budget deficit in jobs
in the economy are some of minnesota's biggest

0:16:45.389,0:16:47.610
challenge is what minnesota is facing right
now

0:16:47.610,0:16:49.760
but I guess when it comes to

0:16:49.760,0:16:54.510
social issues that isn't something that we've
talked a lot about in the campaign but nonetheless

0:16:54.510,0:16:57.519
as governor you at all likely get legislation

0:16:57.519,0:16:59.500
dealing with these issues in sell

0:16:59.500,0:17:03.880
just quickly don't you agree that it is important
to have a football airing other positions

0:17:03.880,0:17:08.790
on these issues so that voters know where
you stand because there are some voters opportunities

0:17:08.790,0:17:10.200
are the most important issues

0:17:10.200,0:17:12.260
%uh will all right

0:17:12.260,0:17:15.290
start with on Saturday go

0:17:15.290,0:17:19.940
did you feel like these issues of the adequately
discussed in the campaign

0:17:19.940,0:17:23.699
there was some good news for those that the
twenty four debates with a

0:17:23.699,0:17:26.910
we've covered on court range of issues in
with an answer

0:17:26.910,0:17:31.440
the question is very specific plan in the
winter when some of the

0:17:31.440,0:17:36.520
questions we got from NPR of course of the
weekend and some of them newspaper questionnaires

0:17:36.520,0:17:38.940
are filled out in Florida

0:17:38.940,0:17:41.820
organizations themselves London it's all about

0:17:41.820,0:17:45.550
and you were on over hundred questionnaires
from various groups that

0:17:45.550,0:17:48.660
most women shouldn't put on their web sites
they I mean isn't

0:17:48.660,0:17:50.820
to lynn

0:17:50.820,0:17:54.260
everything about our democracy and the great
thing about minnesota

0:17:54.260,0:17:58.710
it has been the public participation as you
evidence here today with a fantastic term

0:17:58.710,0:18:00.030
thank you all for being here

0:18:00.030,0:18:04.730
and is that the twenty fourth of the we've
had this kind of personal animus or ten what

0:18:04.730,0:18:06.060
can you do it

0:18:06.060,0:18:09.059
burden of thirty second commercials are seven
second sound bites

0:18:09.059,0:18:13.419
it's absolutely they have these kind of opportunities
for people to ask his questions for if you

0:18:13.419,0:18:18.130
will see us sitting here are answers and on
rivers numbers so

0:18:18.130,0:18:21.480
and those pressures are also were brought
to this process

0:18:21.480,0:18:22.410
and

0:18:22.410,0:18:26.290
I don't want to twenty four debates of the
to be and workers that

0:18:26.290,0:18:29.670
I I would say that's thank you for asking
that question

0:18:29.670,0:18:31.709
i'll say it one more time I have a

0:18:31.709,0:18:37.779
very clear record on these issues I it did
anybody can go on look up and see that the

0:18:37.779,0:18:38.840
next governor

0:18:38.840,0:18:43.500
the next legislature in the state of minnesota
in fact the all across this country

0:18:43.500,0:18:46.840
has to start to recognize where we all agree

0:18:46.840,0:18:51.660
and if we can't all agree on how we're going
to create a future that is going to do

0:18:51.660,0:18:53.030
provide the opportunity

0:18:53.030,0:18:57.420
for not just that you that are in this world
but future generations

0:18:57.420,0:19:01.749
but then we've really lost we gotta start
talking about how we need to redesign

0:19:01.749,0:19:05.989
the delivery system of government and how
we have to keep growing jobs again in this

0:19:05.989,0:19:06.740
state

0:19:06.740,0:19:11.620
because I I would say that scheck unite and
I I know that these gentlemen up here

0:19:11.620,0:19:16.930
but we do not want to be the first generation
that leaves less have an opportunity to the

0:19:16.930,0:19:18.789
next generation of we've been offered

0:19:18.789,0:19:23.559
the only way we're going to address that problem
is by getting control of out of control government

0:19:23.559,0:19:24.030
spending

0:19:24.030,0:19:31.030
and starting the creative business environment
that grows jobs in this state

0:19:32.950,0:19:34.760
cellmark

0:19:34.760,0:19:39.380
well right I do think that all issues are
important and as we travel around the state

0:19:39.380,0:19:43.020
I'm sure all of us have received questions
not just in the public forum

0:19:43.020,0:19:47.930
but in the individual media interviews and
other forms that we've done is as individual

0:19:47.930,0:19:48.350
candidate

0:19:48.350,0:19:50.890
%uh I think there's been extensive media coverage
on

0:19:50.890,0:19:55.429
the the different issues I know that you certainly
can go to my web site and and it's a full

0:19:55.429,0:19:56.880
discussion of of the issues

0:19:56.880,0:20:01.320
so I think that that of all of the issues
are out there

0:20:01.320,0:20:05.820
I do agree and I think that there are clear
differences clear points of distinction

0:20:05.820,0:20:07.929
and I think those points of distinction

0:20:07.929,0:20:13.059
really come down to are we going to look in
the rear-view mirror and try to create solutions

0:20:13.059,0:20:15.799
based on very narrow partisan ideas

0:20:15.799,0:20:19.850
or are we going to move forward and move forward
with an ovation with new ideas

0:20:19.850,0:20:22.360
with the willingness to unveil with the willingness

0:20:22.360,0:20:25.450
we'll look at how we create a better future
for everyone

0:20:25.450,0:20:27.040
I think that's our challenge

0:20:27.040,0:20:28.159
and in the end

0:20:28.159,0:20:32.190
that's the fundamental issue that has to be
decided in this election

0:20:32.190,0:20:36.090
and I

0:20:36.090,0:20:40.880
maintenance their payments late payment junior
majoring in political science and Jewish studies

0:20:40.880,0:20:44.220
and I'm here today on behalf of the department

0:20:44.220,0:20:48.600
there's that current trend of shutting down
public schools and opening privately-run charter

0:20:48.600,0:20:53.020
schools in their place such an initiative
to shut down minneapolis north high school

0:20:53.020,0:20:58.810
how do you plan on protecting our public school
system not privatizing K through twelve education

0:20:58.810,0:21:03.770
mister grier well and again there are many
of the the charter schools our public schools

0:21:03.770,0:21:04.170
are part of the

0:21:04.170,0:21:09.410
%uh the the public school system but I don't
think that that gives that that it's of a

0:21:09.410,0:21:11.850
decision that we the shutdown as we keep this
line open

0:21:11.850,0:21:13.350
I think we need a much

0:21:13.350,0:21:14.789
the water

0:21:14.789,0:21:17.419
reform approach that K-TWELVE education

0:21:17.419,0:21:21.070
that starts with making sure that we're investing
in early childhood education

0:21:21.070,0:21:24.580
so that every child comes into kindergarten
fully prepared for success

0:21:24.580,0:21:28.039
the we look at the rigidity imposed by no
child left behind

0:21:28.039,0:21:30.280
and either get more flexibility

0:21:30.280,0:21:34.050
or we decide that we're going to take on the
responsibility ourselves

0:21:34.050,0:21:37.410
because we do have great teachers we have
very effective features

0:21:37.410,0:21:39.150
and then we put handcuffs on them

0:21:39.150,0:21:43.850
and they have right now and inability to keep
a lot of kids in Beijing

0:21:43.850,0:21:47.410
because of what we've said that they did the
way in which they have to teach

0:21:47.410,0:21:51.550
and a great schools have great principles
and we need to be willing that the stand up

0:21:51.550,0:21:54.380
and make the investment to have great principles

0:21:54.380,0:21:57.649
we also need to engage up education minnesota

0:21:57.649,0:22:01.920
to deal with some of the issues around seniority
if we can keep our great young teachers

0:22:01.920,0:22:06.230
and around alternative certification it's
all of those things that we need to do

0:22:06.230,0:22:07.159
thank you Barack

0:22:07.159,0:22:09.270
I stare at and I would say

0:22:09.270,0:22:12.840
I are the only ones right now they're running
for this office that actually have kids in

0:22:12.840,0:22:14.170
our public schools

0:22:14.170,0:22:17.790
this is a very important issue of us and I
hope he will go look at our web site at and

0:22:17.790,0:22:23.310
work for governor back on because we have
proposed the only complete been very aggressive

0:22:23.310,0:22:27.849
by reform package for K-TWELVE education based
on measure

0:22:27.849,0:22:31.650
report and reward you gotta start measuring
the outcome set high standards

0:22:31.650,0:22:35.350
measure outcomes and make sure that our kids
are performing to the levels we expect

0:22:35.350,0:22:37.480
a it blight

0:22:37.480,0:22:41.550
because it's not just about throwing more
money at it if it was in Washington DC- would

0:22:41.550,0:22:43.610
have the best public schools in the country

0:22:43.610,0:22:44.930
it does not

0:22:44.930,0:22:49.040
second when you look at that report you got
to be able to report the results in a timely

0:22:49.040,0:22:50.660
manner during the year to teachers

0:22:50.660,0:22:52.460
so they can gauge their progress

0:22:52.460,0:22:55.499
but also to parents and the students and and
players

0:22:55.499,0:23:00.500
so that parents can make that choice is the
best fit their child's needs in terms of education

0:23:00.500,0:23:05.780
and then third we believe imagine this that
good teachers affected teachers should get

0:23:05.780,0:23:06.840
paid more

0:23:06.840,0:23:10.720
based on the results that they get

0:23:10.720,0:23:15.679
well that's what I remember that line son
Andrew the religions those film

0:23:15.679,0:23:19.820
who's the that earlier third-year law student
at the university of minnesota listen with

0:23:19.820,0:23:21.390
to the public

this institution and and

0:23:22.809,0:23:28.920
an excellent lawyer

0:23:28.920,0:23:30.380
Britain been

0:23:30.380,0:23:31.950

0:23:31.950,0:23:37.180
and who are on within with one person mister
lee's no to %uh

0:23:37.180,0:23:38.430
with each patient

0:23:38.430,0:23:39.629
what's your question sir

0:23:39.629,0:23:43.280
you know the state funding for

0:23:43.280,0:23:48.420
police movements or cut by thirteen hundred
dollars at first didn't know after inflation

0:23:48.420,0:23:51.210
dollars over the last eight years

0:23:51.210,0:23:55.040
as I say all of this the of that sort was
overcrowded classrooms

0:23:55.040,0:23:57.970
the rochester minnesota for little former
state

0:23:57.970,0:24:01.729
and the fifth grade classroom as a thirty
five children one teacher

0:24:01.729,0:24:03.150
the school is

0:24:03.150,0:24:06.090
something different languages and dialects
will

0:24:06.090,0:24:08.100
the cutback in funding commitments

0:24:08.100,0:24:15.100
to our public schools is a real impact in
minneapolis rochester all over the state

0:24:15.110,0:24:20.100
thanks a lot sell this question high he's
raised the issue about I answered empathy

0:24:20.100,0:24:24.799
and understanding based on your only experience
and gonna follow what

0:24:24.799,0:24:27.710
I would with this spot and that is that

0:24:27.710,0:24:29.549
governors are generally surrounded

0:24:29.549,0:24:32.240
by the economic and social of weeks

0:24:32.240,0:24:37.990
what is their in your background sort of going
beyond her returned your children experiences

0:24:37.990,0:24:39.570
he engineered current life

0:24:39.570,0:24:42.429
the key is insight into and that the four

0:24:42.429,0:24:43.790
those who are struggling

0:24:43.790,0:24:46.890
in minnesota it will go in the same order

0:24:46.890,0:24:48.729
well I mean it did it is be

0:24:48.729,0:24:51.170
a half of my experience

0:24:51.170,0:24:54.629
that is community service and the commitment
that I've always brought to that

0:24:54.629,0:24:59.649
so I've had the opportunity to serve in leadership
positions on the boards as a volunteer working

0:24:59.649,0:25:00.749
in the program

0:25:00.749,0:25:04.320
on organizations like of catholic charities

0:25:04.320,0:25:08.170
dealing with with families in crisis dealing
with homeless population

0:25:08.170,0:25:10.820
with with wide connections a terrific program

0:25:10.820,0:25:15.240
that deals with with families in crisis that
deal with with those and the program

0:25:15.240,0:25:17.150
what isn't worried the program

0:25:17.150,0:25:19.970
%uh that that is uniquely minnesota

0:25:19.970,0:25:22.570
that opens the outdoors the disabled

0:25:22.570,0:25:25.610
means all of those kinds of experiences and
many more

0:25:25.610,0:25:29.379
that that have made me the complete person
that but I hope I am

0:25:29.379,0:25:33.760
as a candidate and this as a governor

0:25:33.760,0:25:38.480
now on you know I I think it's a very sad
state it the if it's true

0:25:38.480,0:25:41.799
the governors are surrounded solely by yeah

0:25:41.799,0:25:47.190
but political and social in determining what
must a that's a sad state I think that's why

0:25:47.190,0:25:48.140
we're here

0:25:48.140,0:25:53.350
%uh because jackie and I we don't need income
from inside of government have been representing

0:25:53.350,0:25:56.160
clients lobbying for the money for government
projects

0:25:56.160,0:25:59.309
I've been running for public office for the
last thirty years

0:25:59.309,0:26:02.620
baxter that city council's I think the only
thing that probably is

0:26:02.620,0:26:06.900
it's more of an intense in terms of giving
back to the community are serving a school

0:26:06.900,0:26:07.590
boards

0:26:07.590,0:26:11.460
but we've we've been raising a family was
seven kids and there's never enough money

0:26:11.460,0:26:14.840
there's never enough money for food there's
never enough money for clothes

0:26:14.840,0:26:18.420
that's the experience plus for the last twenty
years guess what

0:26:18.420,0:26:22.240
I I've been coaching kids from all different
walks of life

0:26:22.240,0:26:26.890
in you know we have kids that don't have enough
at home and you gotta find ways to help them

0:26:26.890,0:26:27.340
participate

0:26:27.340,0:26:31.309
well we have a young man looked up at yad
vashem his tears streaming out of his eyes

0:26:31.309,0:26:34.310
because parents just told me he was they were
getting divorced

0:26:34.310,0:26:38.650
these are real-life situations that we experience
all the time and that's the kind of people

0:26:38.650,0:26:43.390
that we would still be surrounded by we get
elected

0:26:43.390,0:26:44.220
lindbergh word for word

0:26:44.220,0:26:49.480

last thirty five years of my life but Clinton
was those years in public service said

0:27:09.930,0:27:11.590
the people who sort of

0:27:11.590,0:27:13.740
there were other cities and counties so

0:27:13.740,0:27:15.090
the statement

0:27:15.090,0:27:17.880
than anyone else when perot this office in

0:27:17.880,0:27:23.799
well obviously as you work with people of
seen their jobs lost of plant closings and

0:27:23.799,0:27:25.009
welcome to our viewers

0:27:25.009,0:27:26.560
once her husband lost them

0:27:26.560,0:27:29.860
most were pension right after

0:27:29.860,0:27:34.320
sometimes you find all you do is what people
cry with them share their life experiences

0:27:34.320,0:27:37.030
work with them to overcome the challenges
in their lifetime

0:27:37.030,0:27:41.010
that's what brought the public services chance
to work work and try to help them make people's

0:27:41.010,0:27:42.910
lives better

0:27:42.910,0:27:46.730
I

0:27:46.730,0:27:50.960
I mean it's really waiting and in the university
of minnesota graduate

0:27:50.960,0:27:53.710
but pursuing a certain degree in political
science

0:27:53.710,0:27:55.399
and and I wanted to ask

0:27:55.399,0:27:59.400
what is your position on the woman's right
to have an abortion

0:27:59.400,0:28:00.150
and

0:28:00.150,0:28:01.440
would you

0:28:01.440,0:28:08.440
supporter of pose any new restrictions on
abortion in minnesota

0:28:08.940,0:28:10.650
and work at this is a

0:28:10.650,0:28:12.740
governor alexander tenn

0:28:12.740,0:28:15.760
thank you so much for asking that question

0:28:15.760,0:28:18.610
again I get very clear

0:28:18.610,0:28:21.210
views on these issues there's no question

0:28:21.210,0:28:22.730
and I'm going to say it again

0:28:22.730,0:28:24.160
I'm going to say it again

0:28:24.160,0:28:29.059
if we're going to take all of our time running
for office in this state in this country

0:28:29.059,0:28:33.299
and just identified the things that divide
us on a regular basis we're never going to

0:28:33.299,0:28:33.770
move

0:28:33.770,0:28:35.350
to where we need debate

0:28:35.350,0:28:41.230
if you just give me the respect that but I
did do you I I will answer the question again

0:28:41.230,0:28:42.429
this next

0:28:42.429,0:28:42.970
governor

0:28:42.970,0:28:47.580
the next legislature everybody in this state
rather than focusing on the things

0:28:47.580,0:28:48.829
that divide us

0:28:48.829,0:28:51.630
used to start focusing on the things that
unite us

0:28:51.630,0:28:56.780
the one thing we should all agree on is creating
a future the each one of us

0:28:56.780,0:28:58.809
financial aid what ever quality of life

0:28:58.809,0:29:02.060
and what other ever social that viewpoint
we have

0:29:02.060,0:29:06.120
that's the place where we all agree let's
get back to work in on reforming government

0:29:06.120,0:29:08.200
and try to create jobs in this state

0:29:08.200,0:29:15.200
so that everybody can enjoy the quality of
life that they ate would like to would you

0:29:16.130,0:29:22.179
I believe that this is very important issues
vision is real woman and her doctor gunn

0:29:22.179,0:29:29.179
I believe abortion should be safe legal and
rare

0:29:37.140,0:29:41.310
you know again

0:29:41.310,0:29:45.890
I want to just say as governor I can do more
than one thing

0:29:45.890,0:29:48.050
we can have a couple of agendas

0:29:48.050,0:29:55.050
we can get a couple of things done

0:29:55.510,0:29:57.549
whole in direct answer to your question

0:29:57.549,0:30:01.790
no I would not support additional restrictions
I would leave the the status quo

0:30:01.790,0:30:04.560
but I think we also need to take stepping
on that

0:30:04.560,0:30:07.380
and and we need to to work

0:30:07.380,0:30:10.119
I'm on where we do agree and that takes leadership

0:30:10.119,0:30:12.620
and part of where I think most men some degree

0:30:12.620,0:30:15.049
is that we should reduce the need for abortions

0:30:15.049,0:30:19.389
and I think we get their by making sure we
have access to good health care including

0:30:19.389,0:30:20.190
contraceptive here

0:30:20.190,0:30:27.190
that we have put responsible sex education
in the schools

0:30:28.520,0:30:29.860
and that was funding

0:30:29.860,0:30:31.590
but adoption services

0:30:31.590,0:30:33.169
and that's where we agree

0:30:33.169,0:30:35.059
that's leadership that come from a governor

0:30:35.059,0:30:37.330
it's not enough to spark a complete fantasy

0:30:37.330,0:30:39.740
and it's not enough to say we can only do
one thing

0:30:39.740,0:30:45.000
we need leadership

0:30:45.000,0:30:46.370
hi

0:30:46.370,0:30:49.520
I've represented dahmer and hundred eighty
i'll give you a chance to follow up on some

0:30:49.520,0:30:52.320
of the issues that mister parker just talked
about which is

0:30:52.320,0:30:54.440
the pregnancy prevention

0:30:54.440,0:30:56.340
oh absolutely

0:30:56.340,0:31:00.390
prevent unwanted pregnancies and should we
we want to encourage adoption

0:31:00.390,0:31:04.570
and the the and to kill this impression was
very clear that I would I would not support

0:31:04.570,0:31:07.450
any additional restriction

0:31:07.450,0:31:08.289
I

0:31:08.289,0:31:12.460
I don't think there's anything that I mean
if you're asking me what my position is as

0:31:12.460,0:31:13.500
I've told you

0:31:13.500,0:31:16.529
I've had a very clear that position on these
issues

0:31:16.529,0:31:17.539
I'm pro-life

0:31:17.539,0:31:19.180
I'm the only one that is

0:31:19.180,0:31:23.360
but going forward you got a focus and and
we can play games with workers

0:31:23.360,0:31:25.920
but you got to focus on the things we agree
on

0:31:25.920,0:31:30.420
the idea is you got to create an economic
engine that actually runs so that you can

0:31:30.420,0:31:37.420
enjoy the quality of life that you would like
to and everybody else here

0:31:41.640,0:31:43.919
now hear from

0:31:43.919,0:31:47.259
sixteen question

0:31:47.259,0:31:50.830
I am content and up of up a little science

0:31:50.830,0:31:52.039
journals and seen it

0:31:52.039,0:31:54.320
also the editor in chief

0:31:54.320,0:31:58.070
I've seen no the university of minnesota's
in the process of choosing the President

0:31:58.070,0:31:59.270
if hypothetically

0:31:59.270,0:32:00.770
you're on the search committee

0:32:00.770,0:32:03.460
what qualities would you look for

0:32:03.460,0:32:09.920
what goals should aim for how we work with
them to achieve those goals

0:32:09.920,0:32:14.730
and are Senator daschle your first amendment
lawyer

0:32:14.730,0:32:19.140
crucial the important position through the
university of minnesota and burglar state

0:32:19.140,0:32:21.510
I would look for a proven leader

0:32:21.510,0:32:22.730
someone who has a

0:32:22.730,0:32:24.200
the woman ability to

0:32:24.200,0:32:25.150
we need the

0:32:25.150,0:32:29.260
I urge patience to shin or significant part
of of of one

0:32:29.260,0:32:30.560
the one who of

0:32:30.560,0:32:32.160
we have %uh

0:32:32.160,0:32:35.059
respect in support of faculty of of students

0:32:35.059,0:32:37.170
work work well with people of the listener

0:32:37.170,0:32:40.649
a consensus builder someone who understands
that the

0:32:40.649,0:32:42.820
the relationship news rebuild with the book

0:32:42.820,0:32:45.140
the political process of the legislature in

0:32:45.140,0:32:46.420
the administration

0:32:46.420,0:32:51.120
and so one of the %uh a national leader for
for higher education

0:32:51.120,0:32:52.629
distinguished of the state to

0:32:52.629,0:32:57.170
well as as those leaders have in the past

0:32:57.170,0:33:01.990
the no doubt it's a great question and I thought
it was so important actually that I I found

0:33:01.990,0:33:06.180
the opportunity to talk to some of the people
in the search ready to share my views

0:33:06.180,0:33:08.950
and here's what it what I suggested to them
is that

0:33:08.950,0:33:14.020
first and foremost I do believe we need somebody
who has a proven track record as an innovator

0:33:14.020,0:33:16.760
in running a large public university

0:33:16.760,0:33:20.049
somebody who's shown the ability to really
be creative to figure out how we're going

0:33:20.049,0:33:21.839
to move this university for it

0:33:21.839,0:33:25.460
to make it work laughs research up university

0:33:25.460,0:33:27.039
secondly it has to be somebody

0:33:27.039,0:33:29.010
who understands the complexity

0:33:29.010,0:33:34.289
of running this kind of of a very complicated
financial organization

0:33:34.289,0:33:38.400
somebody who understands the finances who
can bring deficiencies to the university

0:33:38.400,0:33:40.460
and somebody who's open to change

0:33:40.460,0:33:43.759
because one of the things I believe we are
going to have to look at is whether or not

0:33:43.759,0:33:47.120
we need to to look at the different alignment
of systems

0:33:47.120,0:33:48.590
between university

0:33:48.590,0:33:50.450
and the men's you schools

0:33:50.450,0:33:54.670
but I also think that it's going to be somebody
who frankly were going to have to recruit

0:33:54.670,0:33:59.279
identify somebody who's not looking for a
job because we want the best we want the brightest

0:33:59.279,0:34:05.510
we want somebody who already has shown that
the ability to get all of these things done

0:34:05.510,0:34:08.509
I would suggest that somebody with a strong

0:34:08.509,0:34:14.579
the leadership background that's not management
backgrounds not necessarily that from in education

0:34:14.579,0:34:16.889
a higher educational institutions

0:34:16.889,0:34:18.749
perhaps somebody from the business world

0:34:18.749,0:34:24.239
that is run a major corporation that is interested
in coming and and innovating and not only

0:34:24.239,0:34:25.570
creating efficiencies

0:34:25.570,0:34:29.280
to deliver the high-quality education we expect
in this state

0:34:29.280,0:34:31.880
and affordable manner the who can also

0:34:31.880,0:34:34.919
the the sales person that goes out starts
to create

0:34:34.919,0:34:38.090
those public private partnerships between
the university

0:34:38.090,0:34:41.780
and different businesses that are interested
in the research component

0:34:41.780,0:34:45.370
it is the at the university of minnesota's
tradition because I think

0:34:45.370,0:34:49.480
if we're going to grow in the right direction
create jobs that's going to be at work

0:34:49.480,0:34:52.340
not only make insurance affordable and that
we bring

0:34:52.340,0:34:56.460
the university of the twenty first century
the technology with that the technology we

0:34:56.460,0:34:57.430
have provides

0:34:57.430,0:35:02.580
but also somebody who can start to drop on
past experience we can get these new opportunities

0:35:02.580,0:35:06.640
for research in jobs in the statement so

0:35:06.640,0:35:08.950
think you all and now I'm to conclude

0:35:08.950,0:35:11.369
%uh with each of you for

0:35:11.369,0:35:15.500
about forty five seconds there are many college
seniors who will congratulate

0:35:15.500,0:35:17.159
in this audience

0:35:17.159,0:35:19.509
we've hit the stands advice

0:35:19.509,0:35:21.819
as we move into the future

0:35:21.819,0:35:23.309
we'll start with you

0:35:23.309,0:35:26.719
well the best advice that I can give you is
to follow your passion

0:35:26.719,0:35:31.209
you think of yourself as a life-long more
it to think of itself as people who are going

0:35:31.209,0:35:35.319
to be open to all of the experiences that
life has to offer

0:35:35.319,0:35:38.149
I've been very fortunate with my wife would
be enough

0:35:38.149,0:35:40.110
and me with with a three kids

0:35:40.110,0:35:42.370
in being able to to state

0:35:42.370,0:35:44.820
the opportunities that life has come my way

0:35:44.820,0:35:47.430
but it also been open to the new experiences

0:35:47.430,0:35:49.839
and that's the best advice that I can give
to you

0:35:49.839,0:35:52.719
the second best advice I can give to you yes

0:35:52.719,0:35:57.339
and if packwood possible

0:35:57.339,0:36:04.339
are

0:36:07.399,0:36:12.219
you know it there's nothing wrong with that
the personal stuff I don't know that it's

0:36:12.219,0:36:14.150
appropriate that that's what i'd say to you

0:36:14.150,0:36:16.589
is no matter where it is your goal in life

0:36:16.589,0:36:21.349
you're going to have people that attack you
for your views and for your your positions

0:36:21.349,0:36:22.719
this is your

0:36:22.719,0:36:25.709
this is your election as much as it is now

0:36:25.709,0:36:29.939
this is the only %uh in it's not advice that
just occurred

0:36:29.939,0:36:35.490
I please look at the candidates on the one
side you've got two people who say

0:36:35.490,0:36:37.060
government needs to grow it

0:36:37.060,0:36:38.729
any cost and guess what

0:36:38.729,0:36:40.729
it's it your expense

0:36:40.729,0:36:45.719
because it government's going to keep growing
a with unsustainable growth over the next

0:36:45.719,0:36:46.779
that through that

0:36:46.779,0:36:47.799
six years

0:36:47.799,0:36:51.549
they're not to have any opportunities like
twenty twenty I see something better

0:36:51.549,0:36:56.460
I see an opportunity where we can put government
back in proportion to the private sector road

0:36:56.460,0:36:57.049
job

0:36:57.049,0:37:04.049
that should be our future that we all agree

0:37:07.509,0:37:12.730
over two thousand years ago of the %uh lot
of politicians cicero said that in a democracy

0:37:12.730,0:37:15.299
