| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Karen Hunter is awesome. I am Karen Hunter, and part two of my conversation with |
| 0:15.0 | Governor Andy Bashir, the governor of Kentucky, kind of leads him into if he is running for president of the United |
| 0:24.0 | States. I ask him, why did he want to be governor and potentially president? And he kind of answered, |
| 0:32.3 | okay, stay tuned to this conversation. But it's really a conversation about leadership and who should |
| 0:36.9 | lead and what |
| 0:37.6 | does leadership look like and all of the tenants that we should demand of people who sit in that |
| 0:43.8 | seat, who won our vote, but more importantly, want to run our state, our city, our country. |
| 0:48.9 | We deserve better, but we have to ask for better. All right. Up next, part two, my conversation with Governor Andy |

| 1:32.2 | It was. I mean, it had a profound impact on me. And I started asking myself, am I doing everything |
| 1:37.9 | I can to create the best world for them, is simply being comfortable because I was a partner in |
| 1:43.4 | regional law firm. I was doing |
| 1:44.6 | just fine. But was that really going to make their lives better? Was I showing them purpose? Was I trying |
| 1:49.7 | to create that better world around them? And then my dad runs for governor. And by the way, when you're |
