A LOT OF THEM HAVE TO EXPLAIN
GIVEN THAT THE FORMER
PRESIDENT, NOT JUST WITH
DEMOCRATS 95%, WELL RECEIVED
AMONG THE COUNTRY AS A WHOLE.
POLICIES ADVANCED ON BOTH

ECONOMIC STABILITY, AS WE

THE COUNTRY WAS CLOSE TO ONE OF
THE WOS T -- IN THE WORST
RECESSION, NEAR DEPRESSION.
WHAT HE DID TO SAVE THE AUTO

IDEA LATE, THE IDEA OF
ATTACKING THE FORMER PRESIDENT
WAS POPULAR, NOT EXACTLY THE
WAY TO THE NOMINATION.

EASIER. NUMBER TWO ON THE WHOLE CASE.

WHERE YOU LIVE, WORK, PLAY,
SCHOOLS, SERVICES FROM

TRANSPORTATION, LOCAL GOVERNMENT MAYORS ARE THE ONES
THAT DELIVER THAT.
FORMER MAYOR OF LONDON PRIME
MINISTER NOW.

NOBODY TOUCHED HIM ABOUT WHERE
HE WAS.
HE WAS. >> Ed: MICHAEL BLOOMBERG HAD
THE OPPORTUNITY.
THE OPPORTUNITY. >> EVERYBODY DID.
YOU’VE HAD SIX NATIONAL
ELECTIONS THE DEMOCRATS SINCE
1992 HAVE WON THE MAJORITY.
BUILDING A SUBURBAN AND URBAN
COALITION.
COALITION. WHY YOU WOULD TAKE THAT
PLAYBOOK THAT HAS SUCCEEDED NOT
ONCE, SIX TIMES, THROW IT OUT

HOW TO WIN AND WE’RE BEING
RECKLESS WITH TAKING THAT
SUCCESS AND THERE IS A REAL
ARGUMENT HERE.
ARGUMENT HERE. LET ME BACK UP.
I’M BREAKING MYSELF MID
SENTENCE.
SENTENCE. ONE VIEW IS THE COUNTRY IS
DRAMATICALLY CHANGED SINCE 1992.
THE OTHER ARGUMENT IS WE’VE HAD
SIX SUCCESSFUL ELECTIONS WHERE
WE WON PRESIDENTIAL AND
CONGRESSIONAL ELECTIONS.
CONGRESSIONAL ELECTIONS. THERE ARE THREE DEMOCRATS IN
THE LAST 100 YEARS PRESIDENT
WHO WON REELECTION.
ROOSEVELT, CLINTON, OBAMA.
ONLY TWO ARE ALIVE.
WHY WE TAKE THEIR PLAYBOOK AND
WINNING TELLS ME WE HAVEN’T
LEARNED ANY OF THE LESSONS.

>> Ed: WILL A DEMOCRATIC
SOCIALIST LEAD FOREIGN POLICY
WITH YOUR PARTY?
>> AIPAC HAS A VOICE, THE
DEMOCRATIC PROCESS.
DEMOCRATIC PROCESS. IT DOESN’T REPRESENT ALL THE
JEWISH COMMUNITY.
JEWISH COMMUNITY. MY FATHER WHEN HE PASSED AWAY
AT THE FUNERAL HE KEPT A
POSTCARD DOWNSTAIRS THAT
POSTCARD WAS A PICTURE OF THE
BOAT THAT BROUGHT HIM TO THIS
COUNTRY.
COUNTRY. AND IT WAS A REMINDER TO ALL OF
US HOW FORTUNATE WE WERE TO BE
BORN HERE, RAISED HERE AND MAKE
THE MOST OF IT.
HE WAS PROUD OF ONE OTHER
THING, THAT AMERICA EMBRACED A
JEWISH FAMILY AND WITHOUT
RESTRICTIONS TO ACHIEVE THE
HIGHEST GOALS IN MEDICINE --
