WE BELIEVE THAT RACE TODAY IS A
TOSS-UP.
WITH ME NOW DR. MEHMET OZ TO
GIVE US THE STATE OF THE RACE.
WAKING UP NEAR PHILADELPHIA
TODAY.
HAVEN’T SPOKEN IN A WHILE.
GOOD MORNING.
I WANT TO POINT OUT TWO THINGS
ON THE MONEY RACE ON SCREEN HE
HAS RAISED $26 MILLION.
A LOT OF CASH.
YOU’VE RAISED A LOT OF MONEY,
TOO, AT $19 MILLION.
WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE POLLING,
FETTERMAN AT 46, OZ AT 37, HE
LEADS YOU BY NINE POINTS.
WHAT DO YOU THINK THE STATE OF
THE RACE IS AS OF NOW, DOC?
GOOD MORNING.
>> YOUR ASSESSMENT IS RIGHT.
TOSS-UP FOR THE REASONS YOU’VE
STATED AS VOTERS IN
PENNSYLVANIA BEGIN TO FOCUS IN
ON THE REAL ISSUES THAT ARE
BOTHERING THEM.
THE POCKETBOOK ISSUES, THE
RAMPANT RISE IN CRIME IN
PHILADELPHIA BEING A GOOD
EXAMPLE OF A VERY PERSONAL
EVERYDAY ISSUE HERE WHERE I
LIVE.
THEY’RE NOT GOING TO HESITATE.
JOE BIDEN HAS NOT ADDRESSED
THEIR PROBLEMS.
FETTERMAN IS A RUBBER STAMP FOR
THE BIDEN AGENDA.
HE IS NOT VISITING THOSE
SUFFERING FROM HIS DISASTROUS
POLICIES.
I’M AN IMMIGRANT KID AND LIVED
THE AMERICAN DREAM AND WORK
HARD THE OPPOSITE OF JOHN
FETTERMAN.
FOLKS IN THE INNER CITY SAY
THEY’RE DOING A SOCIAL
EXPERIMENT, THE WORD THEY USE.
NO ONE IS PAYING ATTENTION TO
THE UNBELIEVABLE INCREASE IN
CRIME.
THE MOST MURDERS IN
PHILADELPHIA HISTORY.
FETTERMAN IS NOT LEAVING HIS
HOME.
ONE-THIRD OF ALL PRISONERS
OUGHT TO BE RELEASED IN
PENNSYLVANIA.
THIS DON’T CONNECT WITH WHAT
PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING IN
THEIR DAY-TO-DAY LIVES.
>> FETTERMAN HAS SOME
FUNDRAISERS SCHEDULED LATER
TONIGHT.
NO MEDIA ALLOWED.
THE FIRST TIME HE IS OUT THERE
SINCE SUFFERING A STROKE ON
ELECTION DAY.
AN INTERVIEW YESTERDAY.
PHYSICALLY I HAVE NO LIMITS AND
MENTALLY AS I MENTIONED BEFORE
THE ONLY I SHALL OOUF IS MY
HEARING IS STILL A LITTLE BIT
NOT PERFECT.
I MIGHT MISS A WORD EVERY NOW
AND THEN IN A CONVERSATION OR I
MIGHT SLUR TWO WORDS.
EVEN THEN I THINK IT’S
INFREQUENT.
HOW DO YOU SEE THAT?
YOU ARE A DOCTOR.
YOU’VE THOUGHT ABOUT ISSUES
LIKE THIS FOR OTHER PATIENTS
FOR YEARS.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT MANY
COMMENT?
>> IT SAYS I’M NOT HIS
PHYSICIAN AND I CAN’T COMMENT
ABOUT HIS CASE.
WE DON’T KNOW ANYTHING THAT
HAPPENED IN MAY.
DOCTORS NOT ALLOWED TO SPEAK
ABOUT THAT ISSUE WHICH IS A
PERSONAL CHOICE.
I’M LESS WORRIED ABOUT HIS
ABILITY TO JOIN THE CAMPAIGN
AND MORE WORRIED WHAT HE WOULD
DO IF IN OFFICE IN THE UNITED
STATES SENATE.
HE HAS VERY RADICAL IDEAS
INCLUDING DISMANTLING THE
ENERGY, WHICH IN PENNSYLVANIA
HURTS COMMUNITIES.
HE DOESN’T UNDERSTAND THE
IMPLICATIONS OF SOME OF HIS
RECKLESS SPENDING DESIRES ON
INFLATION.
WITHOUT QUESTION A PROBLEM TO
HAVE SANCTUARY CITIES IN
PENNSYLVANIA AND HE IS FOR A
POROUS BORDER.
CANCEL ALL PRIVATE HEALTHCARE.
I WENT TO BUSINESS SCHOOL TO
STUDY HEALTHCARE FINANCE.
I KNOW HIS IDEA OF SOCIALIZING
MEDICINE THAT HE HAD WITH
BERNIE SAERNSD AND THEY CALL
EACH OTHER THE MOST PROGRESSIVE
CANDIDATES IN AMERICAS.
NOT IDEAS THAT WILL WORK IN
PENNSYLVANIA.
HE IS AGAINST A A LOT OF THE
DESIRES OF PARENTS IN
PENNSYLVANIA.
THE REASONS I THINK WE’LL WIN
ON DR. OZ.COM AND CONSIDER
SUPPORTING MY FINANCIALLY AS
WELL.
THE DEMOCRATS HAVE BROUGHT OUT
THE BERNIE SUPPORTS.
WE HAVE BETTER IDEAS, WE HAVE
BETTER SOLUTION FOR THE BIG
PROBLEMS FACING PENNSYLVANIA
AND ONES THAT WORK NATIONALLY
AS WELL.
WE ARE A BELLWETHER FOR THE
COUNTRY IN TERMS OF POLICY.
>> Bill: TWO QUICK THINGS.
WILL YOU DEBATE EACH OTHER AS
EVIDENCED?
YES OR NO?
>> I WOULD LOVE TO DEBATE JOHN
FETTERMAN.
I WILL ACCEPT ANY DEBATE OFFER
THAT COMES IN.
IT IS PRETTY EARLY IN THE
CAMPAIGN SO WE HAVEN’T HAD A
LOT OF OFFERS BUT I’LL BE OUT
THERE.
>> Bill: TO BE DETERMINED.
YOU MENTIONED ENERGY SEVERAL
TIMES IN THE SEGMENT.
IN PENNSYLVANIA ALONE, THIS IS
HOW MUCH THAT STATE RELIES ON
ENERGY.
IT SUPPORTS ALMOST HALF A
MILLION JOBS.
6% OF PENNSYLVANIA’S TOTAL
EMPLOYMENT PROVIDES $40 BILLION
IN LABOR INCOME.
8% OF THE STATE’S TOTAL.
CONTRIBUTED $78 BILLION
PENNSYLVANIA’S GDP.
HUGE IN THE RURAL SECTION
WESTERN PART OF P.A.
YOU BELIEVE SOUTHEASTERN
PENNSYLVANIA AROUND
PHILADELPHIA IS THE KEY TO YOUR
VICTORY.
EXPLAIN THAT IN 30 SECONDS OR
LESS.
>> WE HAVE LOTS OF WOMEN IN THE
SUBURBS WHO ARE RETHINKING WHO
THEY SHOULD VOTE FOR.
THEY ARE WORRIED ABOUT THEIR
KIDS AND NOT PLAYING A ROLE IN
THE VALUES AND SCHOOLS THAT
THEIR KIDS GO TO AND INNER CITY
OF PHILADELPHIA IS UPSET BY
CRIME WHERE POLICE ARE PUSHED
TO THE SIDE.
OPEN WARFARE MANY NIGHTS AND
FAMILIES CAN’T LEAVE THEIR
HOMES.
YOU POINT OUT ENERGY.
IT DESTROYS COMMUNITIES IN
PENNSYLVANIA.
WHEN JOHN FETTERMAN FRACKING
AND ENERGY ARE STAYING IN
PENNSYLVANIA IN PENNSYLVANIA IT
SPEAKS WHAT THEY’RE DOING.
NOT FOLLOWING THE SCIENCE.
ARGUING THE GREEN NEW DEAL IS
THE WAY FORWARD THEY AREN’T
PAYING TO THE ATTENTION TO THE
FACT IT CAN’T HAPPEN IN THE
TIMELINE PROMISED.
WE MUST HAVE SOME OF THE ENERGY
IN PENNSYLVANIA UNDER OUR FEET
HERE COME OUT TO SUPPORT OUR
COUNTRY, DROP PRICES AND HELP
COMMUNITIES.
>> Bill: WE HAVE TO GO.
JOHN FETTERMAN CAN JOIN US AND
WE HOPE HE TAKES US UP ON THAT.
