Re: Who is your presidential pick?

Description: DiSesa is excited to see the diversity of the Democratic slate.

Transcript: I mean I don’t really feel that I mean a position to say what kind of President Hillary would be or Barack Obama would be, I am so delighted that the democratic party has this contest between a woman and an African American and I think that makes as a great country even if nobody believed it before we are a great country and I think that they would both be very good presidents. I think I don’t think that anybody who is currently running for that office would be a bad person, I think that you have too many people helping you its too much. There are too many people whispering in your ear, the question is are you the kind of person who is going to listen to those? Are you going to be, you are going to be unilateral in your decision making. No question that she is bright and experienced and would be a great leader, the question is not that. The question is who is the country willing through out, that presidents all of things being equal begin to vote for the person that they care about the most, so they have an emotional connection to. Right now it looks like Barack Obama is getting most of that emotional connection because he is one type with his female side and she is in that kind of compassion in that kind of norms that he exudes is very, it’s a very appealing to people, that’s what they you don’t remember because the audience out there who is watching this will not remember but when John F Kennedy went for the presidency in 1960, he was a junior senator from Massachusetts, nobody knew him. He didn’t have any experience but he captured the imagination of the American people and he won the election. Its kind of what’s happening now I think in a way.
