clapmac so in the new era of technology this is how we use influence. let me close this way, years ago my professor told me the story of a lion tamer and a lion. here's the lying, here's the line tamer, little guy with a stick. he throws a stick in the line begins to do all kinds of tricks. imagination in response to the line tamer. my professor asks a simple question, who is actually more powerful? the line tamer or the line? well, it's a lion. so why is the line so sick of acting so obediently prancing to the instruction of the lion tamer? the answer is the lion doesn't know its own power. the line thinks that the line tamer is more powerful. that is our position as americans. we actually are actually are extremely powerful. this progressive hype cannot go on without our permission. it cannot go on if we decide to apply concentrated power against it. but we have to be creative and thinking of how to use that power. next year i'm going to release a movie. it will come out probably the of the democratic convention.
