 The Democratic Party establishment is going to try to crush you. They're going to try to marginalize you in Congress What do you think your relationship will be like do you plan to be more antagonistic? Give us a sense of like how you'll Respond to the Democratic Party establishment. I'll respond. You said they don't try to crush me. Listen here I'm a 34 year old six foot eight black man. Who's the son of immigrants living in America? America has tried to crush me since I was born. I can walk out of the door the thing gets shot by a trigger happy cop So worrying about somebody trying to crush me doesn't scare me one Single bit. I'm not going to Washington to make friends. I'm going to Washington to solve problems I don't give a damn if I'm blessed enough to win if I serve one term and help better the people's life in this district Then my mission is accomplished mission accomplished I am not going there to try to rub elbows with the rich or the elite or get name recognition or a book deal Or goddamn podcast. That is not who I am. That is not what I am going for. I am going there to fight I just told you it's not time to capitulate. It's not time to beg or to Hope or pray. We have to be audacious. We have to demand it the times call for it Um, you know what this middle of the road politics the centrist politics gets us it gets us separate But equal which was never equal middle of the road politics gets us three fist claws That said I was half a person as a black man Middle of the road clause gets us that you know loving be the genuine you can't marry a black woman If you can you just got to move out of states all of these things are those middle of the road politics I don't play that I'm going there with a clear vision and a clear thought of mine to make people's lives in this district better And in doing so I will make you be making people's lives across this country better because Brooklyn central Brooklyn where I'm running Is a melting pot you can walk down the street and run into 50 different nations walking down Flatbush Avenue That's how diverse this district is so I know if I'm standing up for a person in crown Heights or Flatbush or East Flatbush. I'm standing up for the person in Alabama I'm standing up for the person in Tennessee in Georgia in PA. I'm standing up for that hard work in person Now if come time to force to vote you damn right We should have forced to vote if I was there I would have been that guy standing there telling you we need to force to vote What are you going to say to me? What is the downside of fighting for people in my community? I don't get a committee assignment. I'm not going there for that I don't you can get a committee assignment You got to bring in a certain amount of money and do all this stuff. Okay good Cool. You get that if I get one Thank you. God bless. But if I don't get one cool I still have to represent the people who sent me here to Washington to fight for them and that's what I plan to do So I've been shocked. I've been blown up all that stuff when I my time in iraq in Afghanistan What are they going to do to me? What are they going to do or say to me that I hadn't already been done or said to me in my life?
