spanish parliament. he has nothing good to say about the royal family. the case was clear-cut. >> i think this has led many people to help people realize how rotten the system is and how scruppings rampant throughout spain's monarchy. >> spain say its cannot function without the monarchy. >> take the example of a priest who is a pedophile. it is a terrible thing but it does not mean the church is bad as a whole. and it is similar with the monarchy. one person who belongs to the royal family makes a mistake. it must first be proven in court. but assuming that is the case then it means that he personally, and not the crown, made the mistake. the king is popular among the people. they have been barred from official engagements. the king is trying to rescue the reputation of the spanish monarchy. >> the spanish society is no longer enthusiastic about the form of government. the monarchy is ailing and in critical condition. but i don't think there will be a revolution that will abolish the monarchy, at least

jose luis. >> [speaking spanish] >> good afternoon, my name is elizabeth. i have been trying to understand the process. who has decisionmaking power in the campaign we have been fighting. it is you and other officials here. i asked you and whoever is necessary to make this happen. just so you know, my own children often have to get on three buses a day. we want them to go to university and continue studying. this is a need that youth have. once they leave the house, they are out all day. they are dependent on muni. >> thank you. next speaker. >> the next speaker, jose luis. kevin cho. >> good afternoon. >> i am jose luis. i am from power. i want muni free because my mom pays a lot. i pay $2. i hate it when i have to pay. they always ask me and i do not like when i ask. i ned the muni free pass. i have to pay 75 cents each day and i do not like it. every time i pay that, we lose money from our family. every time when i pay 75 cents, it goes to the atm. that money, the atm has over 5 billion dollars in the money that we pay kids, families and adults. >> thank

then i spoke to will, and it's going to be in spanish and i'm going to be talking spanish. jimmy: what did you think of his spanish? >> he speaks really well. you speak really well. i've seen the show. >> jimmy: not really. >> guillermo? >> no. >> jimmy: thank you, i appreciate that. but the movie turned out to be funny and partly because the dialogue is ridiculous, inher t inherently ridiculous. >> it is quite ridiculous. >> jimmy: did you do any telenofally when you were a kid? >> i did one when i was 12 years old. it was called abwellie jo. [cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: that means rafters in english. [ laughter ] >> yes. >> jimmy: how old were you when you did that? >> i was 12, or 11. >> jimmy: what did you play? >> a kid with a dog that suffered a lot. i can't believe you guys remember it. i mean, it's like -- [cheers and applause ] youtube didn't exist at that point. >> jimmy: what kinds of things happened to the kid? >> everything. more than any person in the whole los angeles county ever saw. in only a period of like a year. >> jimmy: what happened to him specifi
