Hour 2: How Has Obama's 2008 Fathers Day Speech Aged?
About this episode
The episode revisits Obama's 2008 Father's Day speech and discusses its lasting impact and related political issues.
Then-candidate Obama's speech in Chicago 18 years ago was widely credited for pushing him over the presidential finish line. Do you remember it? Let's go back to 2008 and hear if the words he shared ever became reality.... John Thune doesn't think stopping the $40M a week we send the Taliban is an issue worth voting on in the Senate. ACT Blue's CEO invokes the 5th more than 20 times when asked about bogus and dark money donations to the democrat fundraising superstore. Why do you suppose?
