Thom Hartmann had an excellent interview today with Tom Perez on

[Akamai]

his radio/tv show today , focusing on voter suppression (Perez says this is a huge problem and said Dems have to focus on this), the 50 state strategy (Perez said that for ten years, the structure of the DMV has not reached out to voters enough and said he wants a presence at least in every zip code and said Democrats have to be active every month of the year), etc.

Great for Perez and his ideas!

Any thoughts on this?

1. I'm sorry I missed it. nt

4. Great show! Thanks for your interest.

You can listen to Thom from noon to 3 p.m. Eastern Standard at youtube.com/user/thomhartmann

Thom is surely worth listening to and I have subscribef to his podcast for about five or six plus years.

9. I usually listen on Sirius. I have

Free Speech TV, but other people have things they want to watch during the early afternoon. And I need more hours in the day. 😉

11. I am not suggesting you do this, but I download his podcast into a

digital recorder and hang it around the neck of my shirt and also feed it into my car's audio.

But I am sure there are free ways to listen regularly. I like the idea that my subscription to his podcasts support Thom and his wonderful wife, Louise.

They are ordinary people with extraordinary insights, dedication, and I applaud them!

2. I have no faith in Perez...

I think he is a wimp! He can blow air but does NOTHING!

[Akamai]

6. Do you prefer his predecessor? Or who do you want in his place?

I do like Perez. His voice is hoarse because he does not stop speaking truth to power!!!

5. Thanks so much! My hat is off to you!!!

7. You're welcome.

It's important enough, imo, to have earned 'extra' coverage.

[Akamai]

8. Yup, yup, yup. Important messages should be repeated! Thanks!

10. Completely agree

We need to run for every office, from dog catcher to President and everything inbetween.

[Akamai]

12. Also Perez made clear what top Dem issues are, including income inequality,

affordable education, voter suppression, union issues, etc.

Great!

He said we have to make it clear what our core values are!

You bet! As Thom says, "It's the issues, stupid!"
