is through the prism of war, but there were many of the kind of stuff thanks to the brave individuals who risk their lives to protect it from destruction. an extraordinary film archives funding for decades reviews the forgotten truth of the confused mold in history. the forbidden real part one, the birth of i've done cinema on just eat a couple of hours such as full supposed to israel. she except the democratic party nomination. a prominent lives in groups has withdrawn its support for her powers has promised the new way for the us. but we also have choices would be coming. america's 1st female president. this is inside story, the hello the on james bays. it was

a historic moment in american politics. comalla harris, the daughter of immigrants from jamaica and india, became the 1st black woman and the 1st person of south asian descent to accept a major policies. presidential nomination, if elected should be the 1st female president of the united states, of the democratic national convention in chicago powers promised to be elidah for all americans. she also called for us the spot in gaza while saying she stands up for israel's right to defend itself. but how would she be different from bite and why she not achieved her policy proposals as vice president? i'm kind of she beat trump. we'll discuss all of this with, i'll guess in a moment, but 1st this report from victoria guys in b as to who using president joe biden showed to this was an opportunity for comment of harris to appeal to an audience as meetings to sit down to a postman story and his vision for the country between himself was the embodiment

of the american dream. harris promised bases she would restore hope and prosperity . she said she would resume america's broken immigration system by signing into a bipartisan border security bill, and cushioned against what she sees as the dangers of a 2nd. donald trump administration hers also condemned. the october 7th attack include the humanitarian crisis, cruised by israel's were wrong cause a devastating some shells he'd free palestine as she spoke. president barton n i a working to in this war such that israel is secure. the hostages are released the suffering and gaza and, and the palestinian people can realize they are right to the

right. so at the convention, many palestinians approaches who came to chicago to protest against israel to own causes were less disappointed by harris and the democratic party. new palestinian american was given the chance to address the democratic national convention. a group that had been containing some democrats, known as muslim women to harris, who's exposed numerous phones. i watch somebody from my state who was an anti choice republican get time on that stage and not a single palestinian suggested speaker. i want to be clear. this is not about me. we came here to offer a gift. we came here to offer an opportunity to bridge the gap between our party and our vote at this point, a long list of flight priceless. he says that the full day long convention, very few chose to mention gone to the family of captives held and goes. it was given a platform after watching for days, it's sickening to see that there is literally a party happening inside the united center. that's codered and the blot of our

people. and the fact that the democratic party is trying to escape the fact that they are responsible for genocide. as beyond words, to me i was promised to be a leader of all americans. but many arrow, the american say they seem like they are a crucial voting block and several swing states. and whether they turn up to date to decide the result of november's election. victoria gates and b i, which is a rest the inside story. well, let's bring it to a panel of guests to discuss this further. they're all joining us today from the united states in washington dc, mach fi fleet, the founder of also reco strategy is a public relations company. and he's also a former advisor to president george w bush in new york joined his old b is an american poster, olsa and founder of jones. they'll be strategies and also in washington dc, tire capacity, human rights activist, and the 1st political appointees the public,

the resign from president, jo biden's, administration over its policy starts on gone. so thank to all of you for joining us. let me start with you just to summarize this week in chicago of the democratic convention. couple of harris will be happy with the way when, when she oh she sure it should be um. she extended her honeymoon period a full week. and she did essentially what she had to do, you know, not expecting ever really to be the presidential nominee, the tall order was to bring democrats back. those who were, you know, disturb, disappointed in, in president buying and, and we're giving buying then, uh, a low score in terms of his favorability. so she helped to unify the party at least thus far. and for the most part, bringing back blacks. this is according to the pole in bringing back work. latino

is bringing back work younger voters, particularly younger women. so today she should be feeling pretty good. and she better be because of the campaign is truly engaged. starting today with the president in the, in arizona. mont killed the republican on our panel. it's been a very amazing few weeks. would you not say in us politics, that debate which eventually forced joe biden to pull out the assassination attempt on president trump some republicans at the time. so they'd already won the election . now seems to have completely transformed. would you accept that? i think it is absolutely right. it is a roller coaster, but it's been on the last month and more of the interesting things that the democrats have been in charge of the white house for well, of the last 16 years. but in this convention for much it. but it was like,

as of these, these are things we're gonna change now if we get in charge now. so i think that the democrats have to update because of the right track. wrong, right? track wrong track. more americans think america is on the wrong track. then on the right track that they have to run a campaign. that is what they want to do is that what they have done, it'll be interesting to see if they can do that for another 70 plus days for that catches up with them. and trauma has a chance to potentially get even with harris and maybe take it down to the in very close once again. direct you resigned a, gaza as part of the bite and administration. you are a supporter of the democratic party. you must have some somewhat mixed feelings about how things fit at the moment. yeah, absolutely. on the one hand, it was an exciting energy throughout that convention all week. i was there, i was on the ground, i was inside the united center. a lot of people are excited about the vision that

vice president airs has for america, particularly on domestic policy when it comes to fighting for workers when it comes to fighting for, for women when it comes to making sure the all people have an opportunity to succeed here in america, unfortunately, i think that the speech last night, despite all of the positive energy, despite all of the great things that we heard fell a little bit short when it came to recognizing the need to support palestinians here at home to bring an abrupt end to the ongoing violence that is following onto pops in your lives in gaza. i think she did talk about it, but i do also think that we haven't seen a substantive shift in policy. i think that words are not enough. palestinians are starving and gaza. they can't eat the words of hope and for a possible change. they need to see action, and that just hasn't materialized. okay. i'd like to come back to the situation and

garza and how it impacts the election. later in our discussion, john, the may i drill down, you will to post stuff on the polls. now i'd be looking the looks like the latest headline figures on nationwide polling. put power is about 49 percent. trump about $47.00, so it's still close. yeah. and of course in the us it's complicated for those that don't follow us politics closely. there's the electoral college. and so it doesn't really bugs headline figures on the things to watch. it's the battleground states. yes. how close is it still or? oh, it's very close. and you know, for starters, that top line number nationwide, a democrat because of the way the boats are structured democrat, really needs to be leading by 3 and a half to 4 flights in order to win. because she gets extra millions of volts from california, illinois in new york or democrats are, are heavy. but when we get down to the battleground states, it's a very competitive. then what we see now is because of this honeymoon period,

harris is now leaving in the states where she absolutely must lead the northern wall of the blue wall. i of wisconsin tied in michigan and tied in pennsylvania. what about buying was behind, but now we also see her actually leading in arizona with 11 electoral votes and getting very close in georgia and north carolina, all of which is to suggest that despite you know, the good feelings of this week, this race really is at equilibrium and over the next 70 days or so, the leads are going to change back and forth back and forth. expect that that's what happened in 2000 between bush and gore. that's what happened as well. in in 2012 where uh, obama. ultimately i ended up

a defeating around the a for re election, but expect this to be a very close, hopefully, far race. i don't if you could just tell me in terms of conventions, how much impact do they have on the race? how much of a bump do they given the pose because i assume most of the audience for a convention, all the supporters of that policy. yeah, that's correct. now, for starters, we have go to audiences for the convention. so 2021000000 people watched. and yeah, they were mainly supporters, but then the supporters went off in but you know, and, and talked and talked to others. so they're the convention did what it was supposed to do. however, when push comes to shove, those voters who, you know, largely undecided, perhaps not even paying attention. that's where the focus now is for the next

couple of months. let's look at donald trump and how he is reacting to all of this . he seems to me not to have adapted to his new opponent and he was that last night watching the speech. we know that because he was on his social media platform and he seemed to be doing some, some sort of instant re buckle bikes, posting 37 times during her tweet. but the 1st one of those posts was about junk button son was hunter, he seems to still be focusing on joe biden and has not had and his attack on what some would say of the week areas for harris up things like inflation in the southern border that's right, your trunk and his team has committed political malpractice. they should have known as we all did after president biden's performance at the 1st and only debate between the 2 that he was probably not going to last the long term on the ticket. they should have immediately put together a game plan or harris,

or several other potential democrats and launch that a media. and then trump as well. his challenge has been his entire political career ever since. he broke down an escalator to be disciplined. and to run a campaign based on who your opponent is, he's tried to essentially run the same campaign since 2016, which is on discipline. not focused but doing kind of a roofing a monologue on his rallies and getting and complaining and really being all around, kind of attacking in that same game plan is not necessarily going to work against come on harris. and tim was, he has to focus like use up on installation on the southern board, on the international issues that are going on right now, which makes people feel unstable and on easy. that needs to be his focus for the next 70 days. and really it's his fault,

he can take it and run and actually make that happen. so far, as you said, with his many posts on his social media platforms, he's not doing that one way of a presidential candidate couldn't get some help is with the, with the vice presidential nominee topic j. d. vance is, is the no money for the republicans to be vice president. the democrats have branded the both. the power of them is weird. we had some very interesting pictures . let me show you this. vance did a photo opportunity. busy in georgia, you went into a donuts shop and it was a very, very old could see, the lady serving him didn't want to be filmed and she didn't seem to care. last thing was running to be the vice president. i'm going to some people say, what do you think it's a symbol of a campaign in disarray? i do think it's a slight symbol of disarray. the reality is that judy vance does not have a very good favorability numbers. he's supposed to represent working americans from

um, from ohio, from appalachia. and the reality is that he can't do a good job of that because of his history of advocating for billionaires and for wealthy people and being willing to shift on his opinions and his views. and it makes them in authentic and so unfortunately, he doesn't have the same kind of tourism uh and ability to connect with real americans in the same way to malls does of the convention speech. let's turn to that, john. a sent a piece of that was a, she's a former prosecutor, a morley attack on from do you think that's what we might see when these to face each other in a debate? oh, that's made in hollywood. got a leading prosecutor now running for president against that convicted criminal. you know that if it's not the center piece, then you know, call me. but they certainly get that. that is a major theme and,

and it is a weakness. it may not be a weakness. you know, among the, the america, the hard core supporters of donald trump. but those who are given and they'll vote for donald trump. but as soon as they get a chance to it is those undecided voters, those moderate, those independent. those who haven't quite made up their minds. yeah. the hidden there and there are very few what we call double haters. any more. those who hate in both donald trump and joe biden, there is a perfect outlet now in the form of a, of a younger, a more joyful, a fresher, like a candidate in this fresh candidate happens to have a strong record as a strong prosecutor. and she will take advantage of it because she's running against someone who has a myriad of, of, of,

of criminal indictments against him and motivations. mom, the other thing i don't know, and as was noting that that, that still is still got legal hurdles coming up before the elections to, to be sentenced on the criminal hush money case in new york on september, the 18th, not going back to harris's speech. another thing i think was noteworthy. she's talking about a new way forward. she's trying to portray herself as the change cons, that it was a republican. what do you think of that given that she's being in this administration as the vice president? and i think it's fairly, really, i think both that and capturing frito as a word for democrats, it takes a lot of guts. and in a, in a bit of a suspension of disbelief because they have been in, in charge of for most of the past generation. the democrats have been in the white house. i think that it's smart though, because she's talking about joy. she's talking about the positive things

and trump does then comes across is kind of nasty and me. and so i think it's brilliant and traumas playing right into the hands of, of that in the end. but i think the, the, the challenge for trump is she has to kind of change the way that he's campaigning . he has the changes, right. or he has to improve it. he needs to be more ronald reagan right now. uh, what was the positive, sunny side tomorrow in america will be brighter and the city on the hill, all those sort of things. that's what she's painting right now, and she's doing it quite affectively. and trump in advance need to capture that same. we want to be in charge. yes, we're going to be competent, and we're going to be that way in a way that is successful in a way that is a, a positive in a way that moves america forward. and there's not just show negative all the time. john, you've already told us that you're just going to quickly jump. yeah, because this is really relevant to the topics earlier point about j. d. vance. and

the authentic in authenticity that he's been displaying the thing that is impressing me about pamela harris right now, is it she is not this owning the fact that she is part of the buying administration . she is, uh, owning up to that she's not changing her or stripes at all, but she's moving forward. and that i think is a very powerful theme in and of itself. i'm not moving backwards, but i'm also not going to be in authentic and lie and say, hey look, i didn't have anything to do with, gosh, i didn't have anything to do with inflation. and i think that's impressive. and so far, i think she's getting away with it in a good way. okay, all right, let me off. i'm going to enter jack real quick. let me very quickly browse on the tuesday. i think the, the reason that she's getting away from that is she's not doing any interviews or any discussions one on one or any of the ones with the actual voters or with media

. so she's allowed to talk from a teleprompter, which is great. i would do it too if the media was not challenging me, i would put my canada out there every day and fill up the teleprompter with good advice and good feelings of oprah winfrey. but the difference is when it gets to the debate in september and for the next 2 plus months, i don't think she's going to get that same carpet ride to victory. and i think the lack of interviews is increasingly going to become an issue topic as a democrat. as you heard from john, his polls and everyone else, polls shows it's still very, very tight. what do you think could go wrong? what do you most worried about? what keeps you up at night is the problem that could be a skeleton in the closet, some something that someone hasn't found out about her. so what else could it be a major financial problem for the us? or could it be an international crisis put in? does something unpredictable with regard to ukraine or, of course, the issue that you be focused on goals, what was you most?

i mean, i think get the forefront of all of our lines is the dangers to american values in american interest when it comes to the possible regional escalation. i think we've already seen a riffing and violence and gaza. we've seen palestinians continue to suffer. and unfortunately, the real risk, especially in the next 2 and a half months before an election is that then yahoo gets a little bit worried that his body trump isn't going to win the election. and he's got a sway. sway things a little bit more by escalating and i think that's really dangerous for american lives. i think the reality is that we need a ceasefire. we need a permanent entered. the style is not just for palestinians which are suffering more than any of us could imagine. but we also need to make sure that we don't create dangers across other countries and other borders and putting eric is in danger. and i think that is up to president biden and vice president harrison,

the faster we conclude this, this nightmare that we continue to witness, the less likely will impact her candidacy. and frankly, we've seen polls from the institute from the lease understanding just this week, cut out in battle ground state in georgia in pennsylvania in wisconsin and states that will make the decisions on who will be president in november that say if president binding vice president harris can achieve a ceasefire, it will drastically improve the ability for voters and not just air boaters, not just housing and voters, but multi generational, multi ethnic, multi facing voters who cannot figure out why this violence, this genocide has come to. and why it hasn't come to an end. it's in terms of how comments in the speech on the garza mock. she did say that she what had happened in garza was devastating 70 innocent lives last. but at the same time, she said she would always, whatever supply weapons to his route,

is this the fundamental problem don't just with her, but with the american policy for decades, america wants to be the peace broker yet. america says it's on one side. it can't be both counted. i think that's the problem. i think it's the problem that, that a diplomacy works on its own timeline and not on the american electoral online. that's a challenge that could be a problem as well. if the ron and its affiliates attempt to do something drastic in response to the killing of the hamas leader or some other type of activity like that, i think could be very, very dangerous as well. let them are too worried about the ukrainians making incursions into his country and launching some sort of a tactical or tactical new killer type weapon could be difficult as well. china

wakes up one day and says, you know what, america, we need to put you on the defense. we make some movements on time, want that, and also the possible, the possibility of some sort of an economic problem. all of these things are already stu. it's being stored right now. we all hope, i think as americans that none of these things happen, but we do know that our adversaries have a vote in this situation as well. john, just tell us on garza, how does this poll, how important is it in the polls? and you know, interestingly we're going to have a poll out next week that i did it in conjunction with my brother jim. that's very similar to what uh, what topic was talking about earlier. the fact is that americans want an immediate cease fire. they want a pass to humanitarian aid. they in fact are more likely to vote for a candidate to suspense. a. d as real. what's especially striking however,

is the, the generational gap where gen z, those are about 18 to 27 years of age millennials. those who take us into the, to the early forty's are radically different than americans who are in their mid to late forty's. and. ready under this issue, they always have been and i've been tracking them for about 20 years now. but in particular now on this issue of gaza, this is a, a make or break issue for young voters. that's why, you know yesterday's speech. it was not a white paper, it was not a, you know, and elucidation of a detail policy. it was a philosophical direction. and if we take a look at what she said, she went a whole lot further than any other presidential candidate has ever gone in an

acceptance speech on the issue of god and palestinians. okay, tarik, um she did say and that speech the power and bite and the working so the pablo send you people can realize that right to dignity, security, freedom and self determination. she didn't say they should get a palestinian state. your a full but insider. do you see a difference knowing some of the harris team, a national security advisor and others, and the bite and team do you see there's a difference potentially, if she becomes president between harrison biden? yes, absolutely. but just because i'm an insider doesn't mean that i am going to be able to communicate to the rest of the community that care very deeply about this. she's the vice president, she's the candidate for president. that's her obligation to ensure that she bolster support within the party, who from people who had been democrats their entire lives. and i do want to point out that when she said that line particularly about self determination,

that that received one of the largest, the bosses of the night. i think people are yearning for this. and i think people are excited about what could happen. and i don't think that we can discount the importance of achieving long term piece and self determination for palestinians. however, it does get etc, to thank you very much. all of your gentlemen for joining us. our guest today will not 5 for the jump in. so be on target cut, bosh coverage of the us campaign continues all the way to election day. that's november the 5th all now to 0. and remember you can get full analysis on how to 0 adult calm. we want your comments and suggestions to post them on a facebook page. that's facebook dot com, forward slash a inside story, or use x tweet to us with as a inside story for me, james base and the entire scene here, please stay safe, bye bye. for now, the
