0:00.0 | We're now at the stage of the 2024 presidential race in which we expect two qualities of any |
0:06.0 | new candidate. One, that that candidate will be a Republican. And two, that that candidate will |
0:12.3 | be a fringe afterthought since the GOP field is now dominated by Trump and DeSantis. But what is |
0:18.1 | strange about the newest candidate in the race is that he is neither of those things. He's a |
0:23.5 | Democrat and he hails from those prominent political family in Democrat politics. The son of a slain |
0:29.7 | former presidential candidate and the nephew of a slain former president is running for president |

1:37.2 | to announce my candidacy for the Democratic nomination for president of the United States, |
1:42.0 | my mission over the next 18 months of this campaign, and throughout my presidency will be to end |
1:46.8 | the corrupt merger of state and corporate power that is threatening now to impose a new kind |
1:53.7 | of corporate feudalism on our country. All great points, but surprising. Surprising that this kind |
2:01.2 | of message might resonate, especially surprising that it resonates with independence and Republicans, |
2:07.6 | who until just recently were the party of trusting the science and defending big corporations. |
