Jump in the Political Cess Pool with James and the Gang.
Call us tonight at 1-866-986-6397.
And here's the host of the Political Cess Pool, James Edwards.
I don't want to waste a lot of time with talk, at least not talk from my mouth when we have a guy like Kevin McDonald on the show.
I do want to remind you that our guest right now is Dr. Kevin McDonald.
He is a professor at California State University in Long Beach.
And Winston Smith has done a great deal of research and preparation for this interview tonight.
I'm going to quickly turn it back over to Winston.
But before I do, Dr. McDonald, I want to continue on with a thought that we were touching on just before the break.
I was listening to you.
You're very well spoken, obviously articulate, and you ground your arguments with reason and logic and facts and scientific data.
And you don't do it to be offensive.
It seems as though the left always employs the tactics of shouting us down, hysterical arguments, fanatical tirades.
And we don't do that.
Yet someone as articulate as you, you're the one who gets attacked for being some sort of a sort of a villain.
Did that originally surprise you?
Because I know I guess it did me back about four years ago when this show began to take off, the amount of hatred that came our way from really speaking a quite loving message.
That's true.
I guess it surprised me.
The fact is, is so much of the academic world is corrupt.
I mean, you can easily, you know, just issues, say, like race and IQ.
You know, people obfuscate these things.
In fact, an Occidental Observer, that's the internet magazine I'm associated with, we just had an article on Frank Salters, who wrote this wonderful book on genetic interest.
But the fact is, this whole idea has been suppressed for 30 years.
These ideas were there.
The famous population geneticist, William Hamilton, Henry Harpenting, they put those arguments out 30 years ago.
Nobody's ever refuted them.
And yet, if you talk to even important evolutionary psychologists, they just refuse to deal with it.
They will not deal with the fact that ethnic competition is rational, that people who are trying to preserve their ethnic group are acting rationally from an evolutionary Darwinian point of view.
This has been suppressed.
But that's typical.
I mean, so much to this, as I say, race and IQ is another area.
Certainly Jewish issues that have been suppressed.
You can't get it out there.
And there's a huge amount of complicity in the academic world.
There's a great deal of corruption.
The fact is that the academic left has targeted the university for special interests in trying to dominate these departments, especially in the social sciences and humanities.
And that has been a critically important area of their strategy, their tactics.
And so at this point, yes, we are a small minority.
That doesn't mean we're not right.
We are right.
They don't respond to these arguments.
They simply, as you say, they shout you down, they exclude you, they ostracize you, they don't want to talk about it.
That's the strategy.
It's been working, so why should they change it?
Well, it's absolutely.
And of course, there's so many double standards out there, and that's something that you realize very quickly when you become involved in this sort of a movement, if you will.
The rise of ethnopolitics is something that is encouraged with all of the racial minorities of America.
It's only a sin when European-Americans are involved in some sort of a...
It's the same thing, Mike, with IQ.
Just today, there was this article in the Chronicle of Higher Education, a very important academic journal.
It was on IQ and Howard Gardner's theory of IQ.
He doesn't believe in general intelligence, and he's got this idea that there are all these specific abilities.
And this guy was going through there and saying, there is no data to support this.
And yet, if you ask people, you look in the media, which theory is prominent, you know, which is the one that everybody sort of likes.
Well, they love Howard Gardner.
They don't want to have the idea that there's this general intelligence, that it's largely genetic, that we don't know how to change it, that if you are high on general intelligence, you can, you know, you can solve all kinds of different problems, go into different academic areas, and so on.
They don't want that idea.
So that idea, even though there's massive data out there, the idea of general intelligence is pushed aside for an idea that just appeals to people.
And there's no data for it.
And that's just typical.
It's been going on for a century.
That's almost psychoanalysis.
There was never a shred of data for psychoanalysis.
And yet, it was just ballyhooed in the press.
It was promoted.
It was hyped.
And so everybody became a Freudian.
And if you ask the person on the street who's the greatest psychologist of the 20th century, they'll probably say Freud.
That's the only one most people don't know of, unfortunately.
Well, that's, you know, again, getting back, Kevin, to something that you and Winston and I were talking about during the commercial break there.
If facts, reason, logic, scientific data, if that's all it took to win this battle, then we would have won it a long time ago.
It's never a concern that we would not be able to out-debate the left.
It's never a concern that we wouldn't be able to win a battle in the court of public opinion.
And in fact, in many cases, popular opinion is still on our side.
But unfortunately, that isn't always enough, as we have found out the hard way.
But Winston, I want to turn it back over to you because I know you have some outstanding questions that we've got to get to Kevin.
Thank you, James.
I appreciate that.
No problem.
Dr. McDonald, why is it that we, that white people, the white race, have allowed Jews to exercise and act upon their genetic drive to dominate, and we've done so to their assistance.
Do we have a genetic drive to be dominated?
What is it about us that will make us assist in our own genocide?
That's a really good question, and something I've been paying a lot more attention to.
I wrote these books on Jews, but it's not entirely a satisfactory explanation.
We have to look at ourselves.
We have to understand that most people probably would not have succumbed to this kind of thing.
And my explanation has to do with individualism.
I think our cultures tend to be individualistic.
There's a strong tendency not to be less ethnocentric, to have fewer barriers between your group and the other group.
You go back in American history, and I've been reading a lot about this lately.
I'm going to be publishing something very soon.
You see this tendency.
People strongly individualistic.
They tend towards assimilation rather than having these barriers between peoples.
I don't think we're comfortable with a lot of barriers as people.
And I think that there's a strong tendency towards a sort of expressive individualism.
People want to sort of do their thing and be who all they can be and all that.
That's our culture.
And it's a very effective culture.
This is the culture that produced science and this high culture that we have that took over the world, basically.
But there's a weakness there.
And I think, And this is a difficult, complicated argument that has to be made here.
It probably isn't very suited to this kind of medium.
But what has happened, in my view, is that the Jewish intellectuals came in and saw these tendencies and played to them.
They started, if you look at the Frankfurt School, for example, to make the very idea of identifying with your race as a psychopathology.
People would then feel guilty about any sense of having a white identity.
Well, that's something you can do if people don't have very strong ties to their group.
There's just a long history of that.
And this tendency predated the arrival of these Jewish intellectuals.
You look in the 19th century, you see these transcendentalists and other very prominent white intellectual movements.
It's not that they want to be dominated, but they have a tendency to be less ethnocentric, to have a strong moral sense.
And it's moral universalism, where if you look at Jewish ethics, it's all about the group.
It's all about what's good for the Jews.
For these people, it was very abstract.
The whole idea of ethnicity had no moral connotations.
And so it was fragile.
Even in the 19th century, people had a sense that they were Anglo-Saxons, a sense that they were white and so on.
But it was much, you know, they were, it was more and more difficult to justify that, especially when the Jewish intellectual movements came along like WASI and anthropology.
He just said there's no such thing as race.
Guys, we'll be back right after these messages.
Imagine a school where faith and integrity are at its center, where heritage and responsibility instill character, where educating both hearts and minds brings about academic excellence.
There is a school in American Fork where character and embracing the providence of a living God are fundamental, where students' national test scores average near the 90th percentile.
Based on LDS principles and a love of country, now in our 39th year, American Heritage School is accepting fall enrollment for kindergarten through high school.
What would you do for your child?
Give them an education that will prepare them for life.
Located east of the temple in American Fork, American Heritage School is a remarkable and affordable alternative.

Guys, we'll be back right after these messages.
Hi, it's Dennis Daly.
Now that the world is electronically interconnected and there are microphones and cameras everywhere, we seem to be inundated with news.
News from the street where people are commenting about the economy.
Corporations have grasped control of our government and we would like it back.
A lot of the news comes from the halls of Congress.
I guess refunders think that the economy improves might help President Obama.
Police stories and stories of tragedy make up a big part of the news.
Other responding officers who arrived saw the suspects, what they thought was a suspect vehicle, leaving the area.
And of course, a steady flow comes from the White House.
We want to get some infrastructure built in this country.
We think that putting construction workers back to work is important.
But you know, a lot of news comes from a lot of other places, and a lot of it doesn't get reported.
That's why I'm here, Monday through Friday, with the news you might not hear anywhere else from Liberty News Radio.
Are you a native son or daughter of the South who pleads the stars and bars?
Someone not born in Dixieland, but who is a Johnny Reb at heart and looking for a place to shop that promotes Southern heritage?
Well, your search is over.
Dixie Republic is the place to go for all things celebrating the Confederacy and promoting Southern pride.
Inside the log cabin, just outside Travelers Rest, South Carolina, Dixie Republic has t-shirts, hats, videos, flags, books, belt buckles, and some of the best mouth-watering barbecue sauce that will ever touch your lips.
There's just about everything you want honoring the South at Dixie Republic.
Well, you say that South Carolina is a bit too far for you to drive.
Have no fear, my friend.
All of this is just a mouse click away.
Go online at www.dixierepublic.com.
You're home for all things celebrating the Confederacy and promoting Southern pride.
Are you new to freeze-dried foods?

Welcome back to the Clinical Cesspool Radio Program.
James Edwards here with you, along with my co-host for the evening, Winston Smith.
We are coming to you live from AM 1380, WLRM Studios in Memphis, Tennessee, and of course going out to our affiliate stations on the Liberty News Radio Network.
That includes AM FM affiliates across the country, satellite and shortwave as well.
And of course, the internet at thepolitical cesspool.org and libertynewsradio.com.
We are getting you all over the place.
Listeners from around the world, whether you're on the computer or driving in your car tonight, we appreciate you for tuning in as we interview our good friend, Dr. Kevin McDonald, who is a tenured professor of psychology at California State University, Long Beach.
And Dr. McDonald, we were touching on something just before the break.
I want to quickly ask you a follow-up to that before we go into the next question.
Is this an apparent weakness that European Americans possess?
You were mentioning the fact that this has been perhaps a long-existing weakness, the fact that we don't solidify racially, whereas the other races do seem to be more ethnocentric.
Is this a problem that has become more and more glaring in recent years?
Do you think that the problem existed to this extent, say, back during the war between the states, when the Confederates seemingly had a strong racial identity?
Or do you think that it's just a little more heightened now?
I think that segments of the white population have been more ethnocentric.
I've had more of a sense of their culture, and particularly white Southerners certainly have.
In a lot of ways, I view them as the hope.
This tendency towards this individualism has been most prominent within the sort of very, you know, the East Coast universities, Harvard and Yale, for instance, that derived from the Puritan intellectual tradition.
And that has been the dominant tradition in America.
And what happened, though, is that I don't think that that tradition by itself would have dominated American culture without the rise of these Jewish intellectual movements.
These Jewish intellectual movements took those pre-existing tendencies and exaggerated them and made them more dominant.
These were the points of view of relatively few people.
It was not the, certainly not the view of the common person, say, 100 years ago.
I think white people have had a sense of racial identity.
And I think the problem has been that the people with a strong racial identity tended to have less education.
It became a sort of mark of being an educated person that you don't do these things.
And that's the kind of problem I'm up against in the university.
I mean, these universities have just been taken over by the idea that any identification of white people with their race, with their people, with their culture is just an anathema.
It is something that they want to associate with people who have no education, who, you know, just haven't a brain in their head.
As we have said, though, I mean, the fact is we have the facts on our side.
We have the scientific data on our side, but it's an uphill struggle.
And a big part of it is the image that people who identify with their race, their culture, their people are skinheads.
They barely got through high school.
They're taking methadrine or something.
You know, that's the image that is projected by the media.
You know what I wouldn't give.
But that's the image that they put on.
And that's the stigma that we're faced with.
And again, that gets back to the disconnects and double standards and hypocrisies of political correctness.
It's all well and good.
And in fact, it's encouraged.
And I don't have a problem with them encouraging it with the minorities.
Even though, of course, even that in and of itself is a misnomer.
We are, in fact, a very minute global minority.
But nevertheless, yes, it seems as though it's some sort of a sin or a blasphemy to share that racial solidarity if you happen to be European American as if it comes at the expense of anyone else.
And certainly that's not the case.
We just want to be able to love our family and respect our traditions and cultural heritage and heroes and legacy just the same as anyone else.
And unfortunately, we're being deprived of that at this time and not only deprived of the opportunity to be proud of who we are, but in fact, we are attacked ferociously for trying to do that.
But what I was saying is what I wouldn't give for Kevin McDonald to be on some of these CNN programs and given a level playing field to debate one of these pseudo-intellectuals of the left.
I mean, this would be something that we needed.
But it's so hard to do it when you have a controlled media monopoly, but that is a topic for a lot of people.
Well, even conservatives don't allow this kind of stuff to happen.
Well, I mean, we're not.
I could see it on Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh.
Yeah, well, you know, of course, to call Sean and Rush conservatives is, of course, and I know you understand that.
But see, this is what we've got.
Tapping Cannon, of course, is on our side.
Tappy Cannon is the real deal.
Anybody that's come on this show, that's the litmus test, and that's Pat.
Tappy Cannon's a real hero.
He really is.
He's been out there for a long time.
And I think that he's entirely on page and understands the situation as well as anybody.
And he gets the message out well.
He gets the message out, as you do, sir, in a way that is non-offensive.
And certainly we don't want to be offensive.
We need people coming into our fold, and you don't do that by projecting the militant stereotype.
That is unfortunately the image that they try to place upon us right now in the mainstream media.
But Winston Smith, take it away.
Dr. McDonald, during the presidential campaign, candidate Barack Hussein Obama became the darling of Jewish organizations.
He said all the right things, and he wowed the Jews with his speech to the American Israeli Political Action Committee, or IPAC.
But now it seems that President Barack Hussein Obama is making some pretty strong overtures to Muslim organizations and Muslim countries, and he's committed some embarrassing faux pas in his dealings with Israel, not the least of which is that recent photograph of him displaying the soles of his shoes while talking with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
It's a posture that many Jews see as a supreme insult.
How has the ascension of Barack Hussein Obama affected Jewish influence in America culture and government, especially since he has surrounded himself with neocons and hardcore leftist Orthodox Jews like Rah Emmanuel?
That's a very good question.
I mean, certainly it is surprising.
When we, as you say, you're going into the election and in the immediate aftermath of the election, when he got Rah Emanuel in there and David Axelrod, if you look at his foreign policy, Dennis Ross, who's an old pro-Israel activist, he was kind of high position in the State Department.
So the assumption was that this would be business as usual.
And then, you know, he suddenly said that he wanted to have a freeze of the settlements in Israel.
It was very surprising and a shock because the Israeli government is the most right-wing government they have ever had in their history.
They control about 75% of the votes there are committed to the settlement movement.
They want, not only want the settlements that they have, they want to keep building and expanding those settlements.
They do not want peace with the Palestinians.
They would be happy to just drag this out forever.
So Obama, you know, when he demanded this stop to the settlements, it's just an amazing thing.
Very surprising.
And I think that we haven't seen what is going to happen exactly.
In the New York Times today, there was an article saying that it could be that they'll paper this over, that the United States will make some concessions.
But if they do, you know, there will certainly be repercussions in the Muslim world.
And I'm not sure that Barack Obama wants to go there.
I think that people like Jimmy Carter have his ear.
And I think that Barack Obama is perhaps an honest leftist.
That is, he really does see what Israel is doing as anathema.
And I am shocked.
I mean, I'm still surprised because if you look at where this money came from, Iran, at least 50% of the money of the Democratic Party came from Jews.
They're, as you say, strong pro-Zionist people like Haim Sabin, who's a very prominent donor to the Democratic Party.
It is very surprising that this is happening.
But it is happening, and I think it's for real.
But I don't think that we can say that Barack Obama is going to win this one.
I think that necessarily.
There's going to be a battle here.
The Israel lobby has just begun to fight.
Certainly the neocons are up in arms about it, but also a lot of liberal Jews.
This caught them by surprise, and they're not quite sure what to do yet, I don't think.
Winston, before you go to your next question, I'd like to quickly take a caller from Ohio.
We have Brian on the line.
I know a lot of people are trying to get through tonight and have the ear of Dr. Kevin McDonald.
We're going to try to open up the lines for at least a couple of calls.
Brian, are you with us?
Yes, I am, Mr. Edwards.
Hi.
Great to have you.
Do you have a quick question for Dr. McDonald?
Yes, I do.
Hello, Dr. McDonald.
In the past, I came across an interview where you had spoke about the Darwinian theory being attacked by different sources and that it was necessary to maintain respectable discourse, a rational way of talking about our interests.
And recently I began thinking about that again.
I was listening to a Christian radio program, and they were interviewing a man.
I'm sorry to interrupt, Ron.
Hold your thought, Brian.
We got to go to a commercial break.
We'll be right back, and we'll let you ask your question.
Don't go away.
The political cesspool, guys.
We'll be back right after these messages.
We got to get out of this place.
If it's the last thing we ever do, we got to get out of this place.
Girl, there's a better life for me.

Welcome back.
To get on the political cesspool, call us on James's Dime, toll-free, at 1-866-986-6397.
And here's the host of the political cesspool, James Edwards.
We will have the ear of Dr. Kevin MacDonald for this final segment, and then he will have to leave us, unfortunately.
He will have been our guest for a full hour.
A lot of people from across the country trying to call in tonight and ask a question of Dr. McDonald.
He is a very in-demand guest, I guess you could say.
Before we went to that last break, a caller from Ohio, Brian, was trying to ask a question.
We carried Brian over into the commercial break, and he was able to relay that question to Dr. McDonald.
Dr. McDonald, could you succinctly kind of opine on what Brian was asking?
Yeah, I think his point was that Darwinism has been attacked, and certainly it has been attacked throughout the 20th century.
I mean, in my book, The Culture Critique, I talked about Franz Boas.
And there has been a tension between Christianity and Darwinism.
And that's very unfortunate, in my view.
I think that these things can be put together.
But there have been people who have tried to increase the sort of wedge between Christianity and Darwinism.
If you look at Ben Stein's movie called Expelled, and I wrote a column on that.
If somebody sends me, if you send me an email, I'll send you the link to that.
But there are people who, there are Jewish activists who try to emphasize how Darwinism leads to the Holocaust.
In other words, they see Darwinism as opposed to Jewish interests.
And I think that's been very true.
I mean, I think, as I said, Franz Boas, but if you look at the whole fur over sociobiology in the 1970s, we talked about the suppression of William Hamilton's work, the suppression of Henry Harpening's work.
Only recently, Frank Salter's really great book on ethnic genetic interests has been put out.
Darwinism is a very powerful theory for understanding the consequences of immigration, for understanding what the stakes are here, and to really make a very powerful intellectual argument for the importance of bonds between people of the same race, between people of the same family,
and to understand that this is a very important part of our life, these bonds that we have with people in the same ethnic group and race.
Very good reply, Dr. McDonald.
And again, ladies and gentlemen, I apologize in advance.
We're just not going to be able to take nearly the bulk of calls that are coming in.
But I do want to get one more caller on before we turn it back over to Winston Smith as he is conducting this interview with me tonight.
Philip in Pennsylvania, do you have a very quick question for Dr. McDonald?
Yes, Dr. McDonald, I was just wondering if you are briefly aware of E. Michael Jones' writings in the book, The Jewish Revolutionary Spirit.
And roughly speaking, although he frames it in a theological framework, the role that you think hostility towards European or possibly Christian culture plays in animating these Jewish political movements.
That's a good question.
E. Michael Jones is very good.
I haven't read his entire book.
I've read substantial parts of it, and I actually wrote a column about it.
It's a very good book, and I think he understands the hostility that Jews have had towards the West throughout their history.
And I think that's something that we certainly agree on.
Now, of course, we disagree on the theological.
He's got a theological framework.
I have a Darwinian framework.
But it's amazing how we see eye to eye in a lot of historical events.
So I am an admirer of E. Michael Jones.
Wes from Idaho.
You're on the line with Kevin McDonald.
Wes, are you there?
Yeah.
Do you have a question for our guest?
Yes.
Take it away.
It's your time to dance for it.
I thought it was screening.
Yes.
Dr. Kevin McDonald, you mentioned the Old Testament.
What about the Talmud?
Also, can you comment on Franz Boas, the father of modern cultural anthropology?
And last, can you comment on the book by James von Brun, the Kill the Best Gentiles, Tiles?
All right.
Thank you, Wes.
Dr. McDonald, are you familiar with any of those writings?
I mean, I'm sure you're obviously familiar with the Talmud and Franz Boas.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
I haven't read the Talmud.
It's 27 volumes.
I've read about it, and I've read little sections of it.
And, you know, it is the case.
And there's recently a book called Jesus in the Talmud.
And there's certainly a lot of hostility that you can see in Jewish religious, in those sources against Christianity.
So the Talmud certainly represents that aspect of Judaism, the hostility.
But it's also a very extremely detailed law book.
This is a sort of legal code of Jews, and it's endlessly elaborated.
And so it's very interesting to read.
I have written about it in chapter 7 in my first book, People That Trouble Dwell Alone.
Franz Boas is a chapter on him and culture of critique.
He's one of these Jewish social scientists who strongly identified as a Jew and saw his work in cultural anthropology as destroying Darwinism.
And actually, I think he did.
I mean, his movement managed to dominate departments of anthropology in the United States, certainly by 1925 or so, even before that.
And their view was that race was nothing, that cultural variation was everything.
And there was a strong, you know, there was a lack of emphasis on genetics and what Darwin, you know, how Darwin saw things.
So that was one of the most important intellectual events of the 20th century was the destruction of Darwinism in departments of anthropology.
As far as von Brun, I haven't read his stuff.
I really don't know much about him.
Yeah, nor do I, except for what I've read in the headlines.
But I do want to thank those calls coming in from Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Idaho, respectively.
We're going to turn the phones off right now.
I want to give Winston Smith a chance to offer one final question in summation to Dr. Kevin McDonald tonight, who's been our guest for the past hour.
Winston, we've got about four minutes left.
I want to tell our listeners that they can find out more about Dr. Kevin McDonald and his writings by going to his website at www.kevinmacdonald.net.
Again, that's www.kevinmacdonald.net.
There you can find links to his books.
You can find links to criticisms of his works.
You can find links to his responses to criticisms.
And you can also find a link to his own excellent blog.
So I encourage you to go there, www.kevinmacdonald.net.
Dr. McDonald, we expect the usual Pavlovian hostility towards you from the usual gang of anti-Gentile, anti-Christian, anti-white thugs such as the ADL and the SPLC.
But you seem to garner a fair amount of criticism from people we would think would be more accepting and accommodating of your work, people who would be classified as paleoconservatives or white nationalists.
For example, Takyuan Saio made mention of your, quote, malice and brain-bed stupidity, unquote.
Now, there's a reasoned argument for you.
And you responded by writing, quote, such characterizations must be understood as nothing more or less than attempts to draw boundaries of acceptable political discourse in a way that is acceptable to Jewish interests.
It is exactly that sort of thing that Jewish neoconservatives did to vitiate the American conservative movement by excluding people like Pat Buchanan and Sam Francis, unquote.
Now, your research is meticulous, your writing is well-reasoned and pristine and pellucid, and your data is solid.
Now, why do people on the so-called or alleged political right feel the need even the duty to draw boundaries of discourse that are acceptable to Jewish interests?
And Dr. McDonald, we have about two minutes before the break.
Yeah, well, I think that's a very interesting phenomenon.
Indeed, what I'm talking about here are certain Jews who are associated with the paleoconservative right.
And I think they are concerned that, you know, my writing, I'm skeptical about Jewish motivations and so on.
So they want to exclude me from the paleoconservative right.
And I don't think they're going to succeed in that.
But when they use things like brain-dead stupidity, I mean, anybody who looks around right, I understand this is ridiculous.
As you say, I certainly work hard at getting it right.
I try to get my facts right.
I think I've been very honest in how I argue and so on.
When they do this, all they're trying to do is make me radioactive, make me somebody that nobody wants to associate with.
I mean, Pat Buchanan's had this thing happen to him.
Sam Francis, they basically expelled him from the conservative movement.
And they started calling him names racist, and Pat Buchanan's been called an anti-Semite how many times.
There's a huge page on him in the ADL.
They just try to prevent you from being acceptable, somebody you'd want to be proud to cite or to discuss his or her ideas.
That's just a political tactic.
That's all it is.
It's an old Marxist construct.
That's exactly what it is, Dr. McDonald, a Marxist construct.
These are shut-up words used to, I guess, malign and defame people that they can't debate in the court of public opinion.
And hopefully, one day our population and citizenry will mature to the fact that they disregard these malicious slanders from the left and see people and their research for what they truly are.
I hope so.
I think it may be happening a little bit more.
We'll see.
I mean, I don't know.
We are still a very small minority, but I think that as time goes on, there may be political situations that make our ideas more palatable.
I think whites are being dispossessed.
When people get children into college, then it's going to happen.
Dr. McDonald, I can't thank you enough for being with us this past hour.
There's still one more hour to come tonight in the political CESPA, ladies and gentlemen, but we are out of time with Dr. McDonald.
