| 0:00.0 | Hi, I'm Jonathan Cape Heart, and welcome to Cape Up. |
| 0:08.0 | Over the last two years, Congresswoman Val Demings of Florida has had a front row seat to history. She serves on the House Intelligence |
| 0:15.6 | Committee, the House Judiciary Committee, and she was one of the seven House impeachment |
| 0:20.4 | managers who argued for the conviction of President Trump. |
| 0:24.4 | And now, Deming's name is being bandied about as a possible vice presidential nominee. |
| 0:30.6 | Who is she? |
| 0:32.1 | I totally forgot to ask her about her Harley, but I did ask her about Trump, |
| 0:36.8 | Florida, her support of Joe Biden, and yes, whether she wanted to be considered for vice president. |

| 1:29.5 | voters, the voters are deciding. And I think on super Tuesday they were strong they were |
| 1:36.2 | powerful I think they sent a clear message about who they believe can lead our |
| 1:41.0 | country and move a democratic agenda forward. |
| 1:44.3 | We saw every demographic turnout and as you know |
| 1:48.0 | Florida is a very diverse state and I think if what has happened what happened on super twosies is any indication of what will happen during Florida's primary |
| 1:58.0 | I think that we're going to be in really good shape now I sort of bounced ahead. |
| 2:03.1 | I did mention you endorse Vice President Biden, but there's still a contest. |
