Manchin wants to see HR4 apply to ALL states. I like the idea. Preclearance everywhere.
Daneil Lewinski
36:11
I heard something about Manchin this week (Thom Hartmann) who said Mr. Manchin was a "graduate" of the ALEC school.
Daneil Lewinski
36:28
Very disturbing if true
Linda Brewster
36:46
I believe HR4 would apply pre-clearance to eceryone, but let's ask Cindy...
Barbara Klein
37:05
NOT the way it was previously established.
Alex Koplin
38:48
what are the pros and cons regarding the idea of getting rid of the filibuster now-besides from the obvious-which would be to make voting more fair if the filibuster is suspended?
Daniel Lewinski
38:59
On the positive side, I did hear Joe Manchin say he was in favor of restoring the 65 Civil Rights act by applying it to everyone. Not sure how equivalent that is to the John Lewis Voting Rights act.
Jeff Bialer

Cinema seems to be the harder to switch
Linda Brewster

Synema…..
Barbara Klein

The JL HR4 act would restore the part of the VRA that eliminated the current use of preclearance.
Barbara Klein
40:33
Sorry - PREVIOUS use of preclearance rules.
Jeff Bialer
41:31
Dammit. Sinema, not Cinema (spell correct again)
Daniel Lewinski
45:44
Any other significant difference (besides pre-clearances) between 1965 VRA and the John Lewis VRA?
Barbara Klein
48:20
Daniel, I wouldn't want to mis-speak. There may be other small changes, but the most important issues is restoring the portion that Shelby v. Holder gutted.
Alan Walker

What is the cost of Rank Choice Voting? Does this require extra funds for each county's Auditor office? These costs were the key reason that our legislature voted down Rank Choice Voting (Local Options Bill).

While looking at rankings of left and right leaning media, I found www.allsides.com that provides a left, center and right viewpoint on current issues. Are you familiar with AllSides? If so, do have an opinion on its perspective?

The essence of the argument is that, 250 years ago, kings and emperors got their power from God. Our country was about the first to say that the government gets its power from the people electing them.
Barbara Klein

Can you repeat the name of the book by George Lakoff?
Barbara Hill
01:16:32
Yes, I would love to watch that!
