Now let's get back to the show. A summary of my worldview is bureaucracy is bad, all else equal, and it harms the very people it's supposed to harm. Do you think you're radical? In the sense that America's radical. Sure. I mean, America is a radical idea.

Yeah. And do you feel it is? Yeah, I do. I think a massive change is required to set our country back on the right track to remain. I think we already are, but to remain the greatest country known to the history of man. I do believe that. And I think that the American Revolution was pretty radical, by the way, too. I like radical. America's birth was radical, right?

The idea that we, the people, get to self-govern, that was a crazy idea, right? The idea that your genetics and your lineage don't matter, but the best person ought to get the job, that is a radical idea. Or that any opinion, no matter how heinous to you or me it might seem, that any opinion gets to be expressed publicly, freely. That is a radical idea.

I believe all of those things. So, you know, that might make me radical. I think I'm fine with that because America is a radical nation. I'm not saying it as criticism.

The government we elect is the government we deserve.

Right.

Right.

Right.

And so this is why, man, this is actually really important to me as I think about my next step. I don't just, we were talking about this a little bit before. I don't just want to win by a little bit and, you know, check the box of being a governor or whatever. I want to win by such a decisive mandate to be able to actually do the hard things, right?

If you want to be an incremental changer in politics, you could do that by temporarily sitting in a seat with a narrow margin. And then it's ping pong when somebody else is in charge of the different, it kind of goes incrementally in the other direction. But if you want to revitalize an actual state or a country, you need a decisive mandate to do it.
