 I want to play a short but sweet clip from 1996, where Michael Moore was at a Bernie Sanders campaign event. I believe this was his third term in Congress. He was obviously seeking re-election. And he was asked by someone in the audience about his take on the 1996 presidential election. It was, you know, a choice between Bill Clinton, a neoliberal, Bob Dole, a Republican, or Ross Perot, someone who was really, really rich. You know, you're going to see he wasn't too enthusiastic about all of these options and somebody floated a different individual for president. And the look on Michael Moore's face is genuinely heartwarming when he thinks about the prospect of this person being president. Again, this is a 1996. Take a look. Am I going to vote in the presidential election? And if so, for whom? You know, I don't know what I'm going to do right now as I stand here tonight. I honestly don't know what to do. If anybody has any ideas, I mean, I'm truly open to them. You know, on a moral level, I can't vote for Clinton. Obviously, can't vote for Dole. No, Perot, Bernie for president, Bernie for president! Oh man, if that happens in my lifetime, shoot me after that moment because it won't get any better than that when Bernie Sanders is in the White House. Take me away after that moment. I don't know why, but this clip really made me feel happy and I've seen it multiple times now. And I think the reason why I like it so much is because there's this genuine look of hope in Michael Moore's face, but also you can kind of see it, you know, in his eyes with the grainy footage. You see like this inherent skepticism that that could never happen. You know, a Bernie presidency can never come to fruition. This was in 1996, but fast forward to 2019 and we are on the verge of possibly doing what Michael Moore once thought was a pipe dream. And we could win this. That's what's crazy. We actually can pull this off. And the thought of it sends chills down my spine. It's not a guaranteed victory, you know. We don't know what's going to happen yet. We don't have a crystal ball with the exception of the Hills crystal ball, who is fantastic by the way, before you comment down below after I said that. But look, we are on the cusp of doing something great and accomplishing what seemed unimaginable. And you know, since Michael Moore has been a long time fan of Bernie Sanders, let me kind of share when I first heard about Bernie Sanders. When he really made an impression on me like I heard about him before and I followed politics, but when he really made the impression on me was back in 2010, when I watched part of his filibuster live when he was trying to stop the Bush tax cuts from becoming permanent. Seeing that made me think, who is this old man that cares this much? Like he's probably rich. Why does he care about this so much? And then I, you know, I did a little bit of research on Bernie Sanders and my mind was blown. Like at that point in time, I wasn't incredibly skeptical. I was still, you know, supporting Obama, relatively speaking for the most part. Just voted for him in 2008, it was 2010. But you know, someone that far to the left that, you know, idealistic, if you will, in Congress, it struck me because I didn't know that there was anyone like that. And ever since then, like I remember this day, like it was yesterday, you know, I was eating dinner, watching Bernie Sanders on the computer screen live, filibustering Bush tax cuts. And I followed him ever since. And I never even thought about the idea of him running for president when, you know, there were inklings that he'd run in 2014, possibly 2015. I kind of just thought, it's going to be Hillary, you know, I'm not going to get my hopes up. But then he announced and I was like, cool, I'll support him. And then he started to surge and he almost pulled it off. He didn't. But he catalyzed a nationwide movement that is having a little bit of reverberations around the globe. So Bernie Sanders is someone who, it sounds corny, but it's more than a man. He is a movement. He is a representative of the movement. And this movement is going to outlast him and hopefully outlast all of us because it's a moral movement. It's, you know, to expand rights and further strengthen and improve our democracy because things in this country certainly aren't perfect and we're headed in a really dangerous direction. So we needed Bernie Sanders back in 1996, but we need him to be president now more than ever. So to see Michael Moore's face when somebody floated the idea of a Bernie president, his reaction is just perfect. If that happens in my lifetime, shoot me after that moment because it won't get any better than that. It's really touching. Not going to lie, not a sappy person at all. I've got a cynical heart, but seeing that clip honestly was heartwarming. And, you know, Michael Moore kind of just wished a Bernie Sanders presidential campaign into existence and if that's possible, will allow me to maybe wish another presidential campaign into existence. If AOC would ever become president, that'd be phenomenal. If Nina Turner were to be president one day, that'd be amazing. And of course, if Bernie were to be president, I would need like a week. If you were to get elected president, I would need a week, like a long period of time to just take it in and process all of that because it would be such an overwhelming accomplishment that I wouldn't really have words to describe it. So for the first time, you know, I feel hopeful. I'm cautiously optimistic. Keyword cautiously optimistic. But, you know, yeah, Bernie Sanders, we're on the cusp of electing him. And if that were to happen, we would make the country and 1996 Michael Moore very happy. So let's fight like hell to make sure that Michael Moore's, you know, hope back in 1996 becomes a reality in 2020.
