00:22I might miss some words during this debate, but I'm going to keep coming back up.

00:30Up to that point in my life, I had never had anyone close to me like that just up and die.

00:47And I started to really examine my life and think about, well, that could have easily been me.

00:52I mean, what have you done with your life up to this point

00:55to really justify how lucky you've been in your life?

01:00I mean, what have you done with your life up to this point to really justify how lucky you've been in your life?

01:30That's how I got started and helping young people, severely disenfranchised young people.

01:43And ultimately, they're the ones that registered to vote for the first time.

01:46And they're the ones that made possible electing somebody that looks like me

01:50in a community that demographically and socioeconomically is

01:54nearly identical to New Orleans' Ninth Ward.

02:10What do you want to see happen first?

02:52These are days that we lost people through senseless violence.

03:21The president is no different than any other random internet troll

03:27saying crazy things that have no basis in reality.

03:44What a night.

03:46What a few days.

03:48Now, you may have noticed I am not John Fetterman, the next senator of our great state.

03:56John had a little hiccup on Friday while we were on the road campaigning.

04:04Hey, did somebody ever hear that I had a stroke?

04:09Dr. Oz never lets me forget that.

04:11But let me tell you, anyone in recovery of having a stroke

04:17really the worst guy you have to go before.

04:20Barack Obama coming up has got to be the worst.

04:31My wife wants some vegetables for crudités.

04:34In PA, we call this a veggie tray.

04:37And if this looks anything other than a veggie tray to you, then I am not your candidate.
