I understand that viewpoint. Does Levin have a show? So does it matter?


And in any case, I think we need more than just "rational, educational discussions" to push home the point. People need to hear some emotionalism. People need to hear rage or sorrow or whatever to really drive home a point sometimes - or at least to get them to really listen.

I swear sometimes people tune out if it's all calm rational discussion.

And that's the basis of 1 of my theses - no movement ever succeeded being lop-sided on either the "rational" or the "emotional" side; they need to be balanced together to have impact. Our Revolution was heavy on intellect and reason, but even many of the intellects were willing to show their anger and ZEAL for the movement and make "outlandish" statements. The zeal carries things forward, and makes people as a whole take notice.

Does Levin have a show? -- Are you series?

I swear sometimes people tune out if it's all calm rational discussion. --- Are you under 35? Just wondering.

Yeh, but nothing like a good publicist and a catchy commercial or two.
