Americans dont care about Israel Gaza
Saagar cited a poll wher Israel/Gaza was Americans 14th most important issue. Yet 75% of your show is coverage on that issue. Is your show meant to cover the news people care about or what you care about? One would think there's nothing else happening in the world by listening to your show.
From Sea to Shining Sea
Biden needs the support of the indigenous community to win Arizona. It occured to me with the outcry against "From the River to the Sea" as an antisemitic slogan, even though it is part of the Likud Party's original platform, that American's have a similar slogan enshrined in one of our most partriotic songs. The American notion of Manifest Destiny that claims that it is the God given right of white European settlers to claim the land of North America from "Sea to Shining Sea" is the same as the Israeli notion that they have a God given right to claim all of Palestine. I think that indiginous people get less attention than any other political constituancy and that they have a right to be heard in light of what our country is doing in Palistine and based on their importance in a key swing state. Is this issue relevant enough for your show?
Is the Zogby poll about Kennedy legitimate?
What are your thoughts on the recent Zogby Strategies poll regarding Kennedy? It appears robust, with a sample size of 26,000 and a margin of error of +/- 0.6%. However, since it was financed by the Kennedy campaign, I'm assuming there are inherent biases. Given my lack of expertise in polling, I'm interested to hear your opinion.
Sanctioned Public Pot-Smoking
Saagar and Krystal - interested in your thoughts on the new DC initiative to allow people to smoke pot in public in courtyards and rooftops? My wife and I walked by a dispensary yesterday at 18th and Willard Ave NW and they had picnic tables set up—on the public sidewalk!—with signs noting it was a “designated smoking area.” Since when is it ok to subject the public to drug exposure like this?! Looking forward to hearing your perspectives.
