according to university of virginia presidential studies professor gian mackey, kamala harris got a boost in her aspirations. to defeat the democrats donald trump. unlike humphrey, she has actually been able, at least for the time being, to separate herself from that unpopularity, develop her own political identity, and really change the momentum in this race. at the johnson presidential library last week, biden noted that he admired the former president's service, from rural schoolteacher in texas to senator, then vice president and ... president, his philosophy was simple: in the great society, no one should be left behind, achieving reforms of a large society johnson. on civil and voting rights laws, welfare programs , federal school funding, and some of the first significant environmental pollution legislation were overshadowed by news of the unwinnable vietnam war. at the same time, in recent years, johnson has risen to the first quarter of the rating of american presidents compiled by historians. the 46th president will be remembered for the withdrawal of troops from afghanistan, as

quoting, the judge, a tyrant will take the name of his professor, media studies that the university of virginia is also the author of technology of the oppressed prophetic digital. he joins this life now from a charlottesville virginia. welcome to the program. so overall, then what do you make of this high profile show down as well? it turns out that under brazilian laws governing the internet, so for me, you must have a representative based in the country. so what the mosque is doherty's truly over reacting to the fact that he does not understand and he doesn't want to comply with the local law. as a result, he's totally b. i couldn't like a spiral, right? because she doesn't understand. they got to go with local laws, not just based on who's on understanding of free speech or how big is through the government in other places. in business terms though, it is brazil that's important to x but it is because brazil has always been at the top when he comes to social media use. however, the question should be is x that important to brazil, and that is a different answer. it's no x only ranks number

he's the director for the center of politics at the university of virginia also with us cnn political commentator and political anchor for spectrum news. errol louis, great to be with both of you, larry, is it? >> automatic that a majority of rfk junior supporters will wind up going to vote for donald trump absolutely not. >> look, this is a classic example of an event that seems important at the time. >> and after the election, we go back and say, she that didn't matter much, did it? >> they're going to be the a lot of them, but this is going to be one of them rfk jr. has dropped like a rock since kamala harris entered the race and biden exited the race because the whole rationale for his candidacy was that you had two old white guys running against one another and people didn't like either one of them. well, that's changed and we've learned a lot more about rfk junior, and let's just say a lot of it hasn't been favorable and other pieces have been embarrassing i'm well, errol, let's pick up on that. i mean, put this into perspective. i was saying to myself, i need to write this down

director of the university of virginia center for politics larry sabato stresses that polls showed kennedy'support below 2%, and he believes that some of that relatively small group will ultimately vote for kamala harris. in washington, drew wilder, nbc news. big man on campus. a bay area olympic volleyball player is bringing back his bronze medal from paris and celebrating it with his alma mater. san jose native taylor averill played on team usa's men's indoor volleyball team, and today he stopped by branham high school to meet with some of the students. it's just the first stop the olympian is making in the south bay on his give back tour. averill says he plans to hand out team usa gear to the kids as a way to inspire them to reach their goals. i mean, dude, if an olympian came down and, like, gave me his shirt when i was 15, i would have lost my mind, you know? so i just as an athlete now, i'm in a stage of my life where it's about giving back and this is a chance for me to recognize where i came from. and i don't take that lightly, i guess. he's so proud to be from the south bay. his giv

going way down to the polls now joined now by larry sabato, director of the center for politics at the university, university of virginia and back with us david axelrod, professor first to you. one poll is one poll, but in general, the average has been creeping up for harris, what do you think can be learned or taken from this? >> well, what can be learned or taken is that joe biden stepping aside and making a tremendous personal sacrifice has paid off for kamala harris in the democratic party. there have been six nonpartisan or bipartisan national polls. they have all shown the same thing that harris has tied trump either a point or two behind or exactly even, or a point or two ahead. and we're starting finally to see good results coming out of individual states. that is good, reliable polling, including arizona, which today showed in a poll, showed kamala harris up three over trump, which is the first time that either joe biden or kamala harris has had a lead over trump in arizona this year, georgia, by the way, the latest poll there also released today, by partisan by the aarp, is a dead tie, 48 to 48. so the questio

as in brazil will still be able to access the platform, but they've and memories from the university of virginia. he says that most of the views on free speech are not compatible with present in not eli mazda has constantly said, he's a free speech absolute as he doesn't believe in any sort of regulation that touches free speech, which is not quite the reality in brazil, brazil has very specific laws about free speech, for example, hate speech is not protected by the free speech law as a result. so he certainly doesn't understand. it doesn't accept the fact that brazil has very specific laws that his platform has to comply and his pain. and this battle was specifically with justice, i was trying to do more, i since then, what i saw as being over seen a case of misinformation during the election period that took place 2 years ago and during that period. so also has very specific laws about what can be shared on platforms and what can be shared. and so he just can't accept the current laws in brazil. actually, brazil has specific laws about about the internet. sort of similar to what the united st

i'll just say era parents would have a name, or is that profess of media studies that the university of virginia is also the author of a technology of the oppressed and for further digital. he joins us live now from charlottesville, virginia, welcome to the program. so tech bosses have previously been hold up to be grills by lawmakers, haven't a but with this section now, is this the start of something you? and i believe. so i think this is a warranty. that if big tech pat forms, don't cooperate with government and the justice, then they can be a big and follow victims to the prosecutions and end up being tail. just like what happened to pavel drugs. i mean, telegram has been accused doesn't it does not cooperating with authorities when it comes to criminal activities on it's pat from do the will make us how the points they do. and this is what sets telegram apart from the other big platforms like facebook, instagram, a want to have these companies, the have co cooperate. it was about governments and, and law enforcement. not quite through exemplary actions, but they do comply and they do respon

larry sabato is the director of the centre for politics at the university of virginia. ave me his analysis to today's developments in the us election race. my reaction was a little different than most people's. most people are saying, "tim who?" he's completely unknown outside of minnesota, not that that's a bad thing. as far as kamala harris�*s knee, i think she understood that tim walz was a balancing choice for her. his white, he is male, he is from rural area, he has won substantially and overwhelmingly in republican territory, particularly in those rural areas. he's what she needs to win the three states she's got to have for the blue wall — wisconsin, michigan and pennsylvania in the blue wall. picking your vp is a difficult task because you need someone who will help you in the election but also someone you are going to be able to work with for four years once you take office. tell me the impact he will have on the polls. i don't think he's going to have much impact on the polls. that's true for most vice presidential candidates. jd vance on the republican side ha

david name a is a professor of media studies at the university of virginia and says that musk you know, must cause refuse to comply with brazil's laws. you are the brazilian laws governing the internet. so for me, you must have a representative based in the country. so what the mosque is though, it is truly over reacting to the fact that he does not understand and he doesn't want to comply with the local as a result, he's totally b. i can like a supply up, right, because he doesn't understand. they got to go with local laws, not just based on who's on their understanding of free speech or how big it should be covered in other places. but the question should be, is x that important to brazil, and that is a different answer. it's no x only ranks number 10 in terms of number of active users in brazil is even below interest in linkedin. and as a platform, it does not reach the far corners of the country. it is an important platform in the sense that that's where you'll find journalist experts, professors researchers, implants is but when he comes to implants a whole country, that platform

he starts the, you know, the university of virginia, many of you, if not all, have been to the lawn and the buildings he supervised the architecture there, but the students there seemed to want to get drunk. most of the time. and race horses and not do what thomas jefferson did when he was a student at william and mary, which is to study the classics and study architecture, to study natural history and refute french naturalist, both lines charged that the animals of north america were inferior to those in europe. he was determined to prove that and pretty much right, rightly so. and he was he wanted a more subservient population. he planned things out for them. he planned the square grids that you see in the northwest territory. and if you fly across the country on a clear day, you can look down and see thomas jefferson's grids all the way from western pennsylvania to orange county, california, new. but, you know, it almost makes me think about the lewis and clark expedition, which he sent off. and i don't know whether you cover that extensively in the book, but but he was more interest

he's an msnbc political contributor larry joins us, director of the center for politics at university of virginiaprofessor. john, i will start with you. the youth pull, why do you think we are seeing this shift? spin i think steve jobs had one of the all-time best quotes about politics. what he said was, not about politics but about electronics, sometimes people don't know what they want until you show it to them. that's what young people are doing. they didn't know what they wanted necessarily. they agree with the policies of the biden administration but they were looking for a different type of character. what we are seeing here is young people responding favorably to vice president kamala harris over the last couple of weeks. that's the child, terrific group, then you have the lead singer step aside and no one could predict how popular she would be and that's what we are seeking. >> larry, six weeks ago, you said we've got a problem, or democrats have a problem. it's at the end of august, the dnc. two people who everyone knows there's no enthusiasm. how much has that changed? >> enormously. in

when he returned from iraq, he got his mba from the university of virginia and cofounded a consulting business. but seven years ago, the self-described do gooder picked up an unusual hobby, helping north korean diplomats defect. >> i don't think that i could morally look at myself in the mirror if i turned away from someone who was desperately asking for help. >> how many north koreans did you help defect? >> i always try to lean on caution and not really talk about -- >> but is it a handful, dozens? give us a sense of what we're talking about. or was this, you know, one or two and i'm out? >> it's more than one or two, and it's less than dozens. >> ahn says he did it with a secretive, makeshift group of activists who call themselves cheollima civil defense. they claim to have helped high profile north koreans defect. >> there were whispers within the north korean diplomatic community about this strange organization that was out there doing this. >> was it a loosely formed group of people? >> it was. >> and how big are we talking about? >> i don't even actually know the number. >> che

joining us now, director at center for politics at the university of virginia and editor in chief of the crystal ball, larry sabado, is it possible he could get into the white house? >> i hate to see anybody lose money. please do not bet on that outcome. there's next to zero chance of that happening. he's entitled to do what he wants, he's a citizen and well known. this is an odd combination of i'm withdrawing and endorsing trump but remaining on the ballots in a lot of states. please vote for me. people will figure it out. it doesn't matter. he has been dropping like a rock ever since kamala harris got in. when he started he was in the upper teens. in some polls he was in the low 20s, and now at best, he's at 5 or 6% in some of the states and those polls are outdated. we have had a democratic convention. one network poll just a few days ago had him at 2%. for people who think that because he's endorsing trump he can just move that 2% into trump's column, they don't know much about politics. it doesn't work that way. it's not going to work that way. some of them will go to trump. som

sweet the reaction of the loan law school david name, or is a professor of media studies or university of virginia or an officer of technology of the oppressed and valid digital he joins us now from victoria in brazil. what do you make of it on mosques? reaction to all of this. why is he so annoyed with the supreme court? justice alexandra dom mariah's is the most certainly over reacting here as we know and as a mosque has constantly said, he's a free speech of salute as he doesn't believe in any sort of regulation that touches free speech. but it is not quite the reality in brazil, brazil has very specific laws about free speech. for example, the hate speech is not protected by the for the free speech laws in brazil. so he certainly doesn't understand and it doesn't accept the fact that brazil has very specific laws that his platform has to comply. and his band and best bottle was specifically with just as i was trying to do my eyes since then what i said, it's been over seen a case of misinformation during the election period that took place 2 years ago. and during that period, brazil also has v

university of virginia election forecaster larry sabado moved north carolina from lean republican tosup. as the vice president continues to improve her polling. >> this as former president donald trump and his running mate ohio senator jd vance are set to visit north carolina today to deliver remarks on national security. joining us now is susan del percio, republican strategist, and msnbc political analyst. >> so, susan, how significant do you think this is that north carolina moves to tossup? >> it is very significant because we're now seeing several more states in play with vice president harris at the top of the ticket. which means that the trump effort has to really scramble to go back and put events together in north carolina and georgia and arizona and states that they thought they pretty much had locked up or nevada where she's even ahead with the margin of error. so, focusing on north carolina, i think it is a really smart strategy for the vice president's campaign. it is similar to georgia, and they can change turnout, if they can tweak it, it will be enough, plus the curre
