A black bourgeoisie perspective on U.S. politics
Yesterday before the selection of Biden was announced, Cenk Uygur, David Sirota and I chatted with Michael Moore about his hopes for Obama’s VP selection on Meet the Bloggers. Michael Moore liked the idea of Caroline Kennedy. An Obama-Kennedy ticket would have been cool. Except she’s never held elected office – Doh! Personally, I hope she’ll consider running someday.
It was an interesting discussion and Moore’s appearance generated 4x the normal viewership for Meet the Bloggers this week. Check it out (takes a min or 2 for the vid to start, fyi). My question on Obama’s VP and Michael’s response appears toward the end. There’s more of Michael and me btw in next week’s Meet the Bloggers. Stay tuned.
