I'm sure I don't know what they thought would happen when they invited him on that show.

As for being on the lower end of the spectrum, I'm afraid you might be venturing into Pony Territory with that one.
I've been doing an unprecedented amount of posting lately, but I need to shift back to the stuff that puts food on the table. Perhaps when things calm down a little more...
Good idea, though.
I don't watch the TV I have. But my housemate pays for it and insists on cable for sports. Set in his ways. 
in how it relates to America. I can't remember the name or the show title or the journalist but she is a "pundit/journalist" which is very similar to the type of shows on the 24/7 networks. (I remember the show opens with a graphic of bombs labeled CNN, Fox, MSNBC "Weapons of Mass Disinformation" .
At-the-end of a show, she interviewed an US diplomat to Iraq that I wish more networks provided interviews instead of those god-awful Generals that were part of an organized Pentagon Propaganda operation. They also hired Larry King who continues to ask questions, doesn't bring his opinion "to the air". RT grants a lot of Jesse Ventura interviews, I saw Sibel Edmunds on there, Bill Maher on Larry King. I saw Ron Paul once, start talking economics & Libertarians quickly lose me but they do make some sense when it comes to foreign policy.
I can't recall who else, Oliver Stone was one.

Texas prison riot: 2,800 inmates to be moved from now ‘uninhabitable’ facility
After 2,000 inmates, mostly immigrants, took over a Texas prison in a riot over poor medical services, federal authorities have decided to relocate all the detainees from the now “uninhabitable” correctional facility.
The riot at the Willacy County Correctional Center erupted on Friday afternoon, when prisoners refused to eat breakfast or report for work to protest medical services at the facility.
The prison was practically run over by the inmates, who continue to hold down the fort. It still remains unclear what medical service issues had upset the inmates. Only around 800 to 900 inmates have refused to riot in a facility that holds some 2,900 people, most of whom are immigrants with criminal record.
Negotiations were ongoing Saturday in an effort to “regain complete control”of the prison after multiple agencies, including federal and state authorities, became involved in securing the perimeter, said Ed Ross, a spokesman for the US Bureau of Prisons. The spokesman added that prisoners are “now compliant,” but might be moved to other institutions as damage from rioting made the facility“uninhabitable.”

Given that the report lacks assertions as to what specific issues are why they're rioting it is hard to claim that it is propaganda with the exception there is a reason why RT choose to list it at-the-top. As you can see what type of stories RT priorities is the important stories the corporate US media downplays or omits.
US wants to slow down Afghanistan troop withdrawal
Washington is considering shifting the deadline for troop its withdrawal from Afghanistan to make sure the “progress” from over 13 years of US operations in the country “sticks,” the new US Defense Secretary said during a surprise visit to Kabul.
“Our priority now is to make sure this progress sticks,” Defense Secretary Ashton Carter said in a news conference in Kabul with Afghan President Ashraf Ghani. “That is why President Obama is considering a number of options to reinforce our support for President Ghani’s security strategy, including possible changes to the timeline for our drawdown of US troops.”
Under the current arrangement, the 11,000-strong US force should be cut to roughly 5,000 by the end of 2015, before pulling out altogether the following year, when Obama will leave office. By the end of 2016 the US military presence is expected to shrink to a “normal” embassy security contingent.
Obama is scheduled to visit Kabul next month, where Ghani will likely discuss US troop numbers with the American leader “in the context of the larger partnership.”

also signed the Civil Rights Act. It was the Civil Rights Act that really caused problems for Democrats. Still does in the South.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Pub.L. 88–352, 78 Stat. 241, enacted July 2, 1964) is a landmark piece of civil rights legislation in the United States[5] that outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.[6] It ended unequal application of voter registration requirements and racial segregation in schools, at the workplace and by facilities that served the general public (known as "public accommodations" .
Powers given to enforce the act were initially weak, but were supplemented during later years. Congress asserted its authority to legislate under several different parts of the United States Constitution, principally its power to regulate interstate commerce under Article One (section 8), its duty to guarantee all citizens equal protection of the laws under the Fourteenth Amendment and its duty to protect voting rights under the Fifteenth Amendment. The Act was signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson on July 2, 1964, at the White House.

As we all know, race is still the big hurdle to rational government and rational voting in the South and even in some other parts of the country. We have a long way to go in some parts of the country in dealing with the race issue. It's way past time that people leave racism behind. But the truth is that we still have to deal with that ugly problem.
... but we're not allowed to say that here.
Whatever ticket he runs on, he's got my vote - Democrat, Green, or independent.
The candidate with the right ideas is what counts for me, not their party affiliation.
this is good!
