Buildings collapse, then a tsunami brings even more devastation. Well have the latest. And signs of the times from banners and billboards to Old School Lawn signs, these displays of democracy have been seen as a predictor for an areas election results. How true is that . We begin with a look at todays eye opener, your world in 90 seconds. Millions more will vote by tuesday. And i believe when you use your power to vote, well change the course of this country and the course of history. There are just three days left before election day. There will be no heating in the winter. No air conditioning in the summer and no electricity whatever the hell you want it. Right now you have it made. Youre so lucky. You are so lucky im your president. We are better than this. And we deserve better than this. The candidates race across the country fighting over votes in the battleground states. Its really a choice between the trump boom and a biden depression. We are rounding the turn on the pandemic w
Disagree over some issues that were passionate about. We will. Congress will pass some bills i cannot sign. Im pretty sure ill take some actions that some in congress will not like. Thats natural. Thats how our democracy works. But we can surely find ways to Work Together on issues where theres broad agreement among the American People. So i look forward to republicans putting forward their governing agenda. I will offer my ideas on areas where i think we can move together to respond to peoples economic needs. So just take one example, we all agree on the need to create more jobs that pay well. Traditionally, both parties have been for creating jobs, rebuilding our infrastructure. Our roads, bridges, ports, waterways. I think we can hone in on a way to pay for it through tax reform that closes loopholes and makes it more attractive for companies to create jobs here in the United States. We can also Work Together to grow our exports and open new markets for our manufacturers to sell mor
Influence. A scuffle broke out turning into a brawl. U. S. Carriers are prohibited from flying to or from teleashes. The fighting tela sieve. The fighting in gaza wages on. We have seen too much blood shed on all sides. Stop fighting. Rick perry sent an alert in 2012 a letter in 2012, warning obama. They are refusing to take responsibility. When we look at the pipeline, its full of black and brown boys. When you suspend the child you engrain that they are not good enough. We have to think about a country which would rather build prisons than schools. We begin with u. S. Health officials that they have no evidence of the direct russian involvement in the shoot down of Malaysia Airlines flight 17. The jet was likely shot down by a surface to air missile fired by mistake from on area controlled by russianbacked rebels, and russia created the conditions for the tragedy to happen. We are working to determine whether there was a link, whether russians were on the ground, the degree to which
Disagreements with the view ultimately to thinking for ourselves about what are the or the most reasonable ans to the fundamental questions and it seems to me that strauss does explicitly actually indicate that this is exactly what he is doing. That its a new kind of philosophical dialogue he is constructing, and i just want to read you a passage from his liberalism and ancient and modern, what is liberal education. He says the greatest minds utter monologues. We must transform their monologues into a dialogue. Theyre sid by side into it together. The greatest minds utter monologues even when they write dialogues. When we look at the platonic dialogues we observe that there is never a dialogue among minds of the highest order. All platonic dialogues are dialogues between a superior man and men inferior to him. Plato apparently felt one could not write a dialogue between two men of the highest order. We must then do something which the greatest minds were unable to do. Since the greates
