Max Myers: Democratic Candidate for PA Governor on Progressive Issues [VIDEO]

This is a video from my new Internet newscast, the only grassroots progressive media show exclusively about Pennsylvania politics, Counterpoint PA.

In this video, I list the positions of Democratic PA gubernatorial candidate Max Myers on key progressive issues in areas including education, ObamaCare in PA, abortion, union rights, fracking, marijuana, and genetically engineered foods. I got to question Max personally and pinned him down on a number of issues not addressed on his official campaign website. I analyze how progressive his positions are as I go along, and also rant a tiny bit about the importance of primary elections.

Stay tuned throughout this week for one more PA Headline and of course, Counterpoint PA's homage to Keith Olbermann: the Worst Pennsylvanians of the Week.

I have always known that anyone who appeals to me will not appeal to the "masses". But just maybe he can drive the issues and conversation in the right direction.

I wish Myers the best of luck.
