Thanks in part to social media and our next guest has an example of just how strong social media in the name is protests licences.
-- -- We went and -- a couple of statements here.
Well it's happening is it crowded market.
-- -- They are disorganized.
Hey look what makes you sound like the president -- in the neighborhood in the lands and our aggressive.
But they have a real legitimate complaint deep down I that -- that message that I think will resonate eventually make a bullet.
-- a good neighborhood but -- next time.
All right that's Fox's Geraldo Rivera obviously -- -- live and our.
In our studio and a couple of things -- to talk -- the influence of social media and all these people but right after you did that ever had a few wrapped up your show.
You left to -- park obviously you were done with your show -- that's all -- on the group's FaceBook page they put up this big thing.
And they said that they changed get out of there He drove me -- is an absolute lion I don't know why they have to resort to it I think they need you know.
I kind of iconic moments -- further movement and keep it going.
But we finished our show was a spirited as you see.
Spirited crowd there they have a message that I think.
Can resonate this tremendous frustration that this year in America because of the economy.
But also month -- and Russell Simmons can't find a -- -- -- -- people find.
But there is a rage that is misdirected or on directed and I wonder we -- alliance.
-- do you think it ends and where do you -- where is it directed right now that you think.
Doesn't result in any kind of -- well they're they're marching up Fifth Avenue now.
Two to protest in front of the homes of billionaires to protest the inequity in the in the American economic system.
But that what does that mean that they want to -- the American economic system.
I mean are they for president Obama's jobs bill -- that for Obama care.
Did they wanna restoration of the Clinton Era tax -- -- what do they want want -- they stamp for and I think that until they get an agenda.
This is movement that I think will last as long as the weather is then set of occupy Wall Street will be occupy.
You know Tampa occupy you have to yeah I don't know Baja California it's going to be it's going to -- Be something that will inevitably Peter out.
-- they hone their message that the something's that's because might -- quick for a little while yes He said but very questionable answers senior anything -- What we've been doing -- to the Tea Party.
Or may be covered oversee all this product -- and now be a it's not like that it doesn't see most of these kids a suburban kids they've got iPhone or probably supporting them but given a lot their longing for we -- war in Vietnam.
Or the civil rights movement there were real specific things to be they share that frustration and that -- -- lots of Americans but they.
Once the haves and have nots the rich get rid of their work southern -- percent do not point that plays right into it is -- does not.
That we create bit from that we've basically -- It of people get angered long enough that it's time for you to people who are in money could give it back to me and that is that that is alternately in addition if we aren't artists.
-- that unemployment insurance -- insurance should do something for it worked for hours and some community service they should do something get training I believe that to be true but the fact income disparity in the country the difference -- the middle class than the you know the upper class of the -- gap is a drop profoundly in the last couple of years who we elect to the White House.
But my point is okay.
Now you have this energy let's focus it on something.
What do we want to accomplish now you have for instance the sit.
Reduction commission that is statutorily -- to -- behind that let them say that there be their needs to be any people making more than a million lead to getting their wheels.
And lying about -- although on social and -- -- -- -- -- about Iran you know about that one Martha the one final thing real quickly just because we're about to have the head of this group Americans elect Don that's trying to get another.
Candidate on the ballot do you think that the cause and effect of all this Tea Party on the right occupy Wall Street on the left might be that we have a legitimate third party.
I don't -- -- -- -- -- that it would be since I have a job and I can't do that I have I'm laughing and now.
Yeah I not -- I president's own rights not going to do that Tea Party is not going to abandon whoever the nominee is even if it's someone is centrist is Mitt Romney and I don't think these -- will peel away from President Obama either I mean they.
They that was the moment of joy a couple of years ago and the progressive community when this man.
You know this person who represented so much of what we believed in back in the sixties was elected to the White House.
Now you've got this gross disappointment but I don't see him being abandonment of our great to see you too thanks --
