This is a party we talk a great deal about being indicted and he did say the question is it really.
To hear the mainstream media -- They're not they're -- -- touch they're not getting it they're not seeing it.
And KV.
Minorities and Latinos the bottom line is they are not really the party of all America day yards of politics -- -- -- This great coupon ticket whether that's fair or right Hollywood star who differs with that strongly.
The actor Jon Voight is -- -- right now.
On you'd see you about a half -- -- -- snuck -- -- and it's good that you know -- was off to our side is we're talking here.
Every line and perhaps take care and ever want to be with -- I thought it was because I was here.
Apparently that's not they they do you know and they wave at me basic you know -- -- known and I say yeah -- -- -- and you know mom and they had your picture back up.
Why are you here.
Well I'm I'm here.
Why am my here -- here because -- -- understanding of -- the real.
Drama this hour in our country's history this -- serious nature of our dilemma.
And and I wanna be -- -- -- you know and I know.
By the way Mitt Romney won enough.
And Paul Ryan -- enough actually.
To know that these these people are a godsend their people who are -- People who -- problem solvers that's in their nature and they're also very positive thinking.
It's gonna find that they would by the way both -- I'm I'm -- just very happy I know we have a real dilemma we don't address some of these problems we're in.
Deep trouble and I'm thinking -- my grandchildren and their children and we better do everything we can immediately.
To stop this and you know something's going over that the the falls really.
But is there this view that Hollywood is sort of this monolithic left this past and and yet here you are obviously you're an exception to I think it's -- it's.
Accurate relief workers.
Well I you know I know a lot of the conservatives in Hollywood and lot of them -- quiet because this a very tolerant.
-- company we keep that it there's not very tolerant and its its kind that makes it kinda rough.
I mean is -- like you wouldn't Clint Eastwood -- a -- just reminiscing valued at.
-- somewhat likely identity could going to be connected to -- talking dogs say that is a rumor high when I won't but there's a rumor that he might come so if they have somebody at -- you know within -- right.
Right I mean and and and it you -- I'm not does not get god bless -- -- -- comes by the way but EM EA.
Any hope that things are your views senior you've had a great career obviously not but I've I've had a wonderful career and -- -- -- liberals -- and again if you look if I lose the jobs from us.
Side it's not a big deal I've had -- -- -- good long career.
And I and I'm not in kind of pretty you know lose.
Very low set out but if somebody in the middle of our country with five kids loses -- job it's a big deal.
So that's why am proud but a lot of kids a lot of young people a lot of people in general look up to Hollywood.
And take their cues from Hollywood that singers the entertainers the George -- is that although -- these big dances for the president and raise 6020 million at a time.
So obviously -- simulate the cool thing must be to back.
The president the weak economy notwithstanding these cooler.
The Republicans are not what he said.
Well look yeah we know that when he was elected.
According to Hillary Clinton and Joseph Biden he had no experience Brian.
And he didn't.
But no one looked into his record this legally was who is this associations works everything is a -- with him.
Now we've seen him in office and we've seen.
You know one after another -- -- failed policies.
We see the country suffering terribly.
Politically where we've been weakened.
It economically.
And militarily joke and now they have.
Some more grounds to make a decision let's see what happens I would recommend to people.
It is this movie it's just amounts when he sixteen.
It's very important if it's moved into the top ten hit poor people don't -- that haven't done their due diligence.
I hope I asked them to go see this film it's not a polemic it's very very well done very good film making actually it's -- it's enjoyable to watch this movie but it presents the facts that -- mainstream has not presented to the people's.
So to educate yourself -- make a proper vote.
All of you people on the left in the middle -- -- to -- Are you pretty good working the camera by the way to you know that you loneliness of -- and other little idol and I think ahead I don't -- prompter.
-- and finally I know you gotta -- done but I've I'm wondering the argument for a lot of the Hollywood types be open to.
Barack Obama -- -- so rich it doesn't matter if their taxes go up and on the floor 5% you're that kind of rates too and it's not be easy for you but.
Why do you draw the line -- saying taxes aren't the answer standing is because that's not.
That's a Hollywood that's just -- -- Well it's a funny thing the people in Hollywood and when you get into Hollywood will listen all of these people are gifted people here -- -- blessed.
With great gifts.
And I respect those -- and very talented people less -- like Madonna's not you could.
-- -- You mean now like television anchor and now -- directly -- -- But you know they get -- they get -- -- thought that you know it's gonna go on forever and it's a little too easy for them they feel a little guilty and they wanna be seen as.
People who -- compassionate to other people you know the part of that is that that -- what I just described as true.
But you know there's a little hypocrisy here too because you know when the produces in Hollywood that are.
Encouraging people to vote for more taxes.
They're taking their films.
To.
Tax free state that -- in order to make some money so it's Israel funny complex the other hypocrisy is.
That Barack Obama is talking about the 1% 1% and they -- his bank in California -- -- You know expect that that so avoid the other that's good luck coming -- -- yourself you might have a career in this.
God million apply only to and I so admire you guys I've.
Really do I really do not not like a ledger had these big Macs and what I did this on telly this -- -- -- note to a stop this guy walked by.
You know sort of like me but I was bonding with -- ride you rob.
