Hi everyone! just wanted to check in on this -- thank you! On Apr 21, 2016, at 4:38 PM, Christopher, Rebecca <ChristopherR@dnc.org<mailto:ChristopherR@dnc.org>> wrote: New version with Cornyn! Awesome, but can we take out Paul Ryan in the GOP Senate bouquet? Maybe add in Cornyn instead. Hi everyone! Check out this cut — script is approved by Graham and our wonderful volunteer has passed vet (but please let me know if you have any questions!) I’m asking Pratt about being in this video (will depend on scheduling) but we’re also considering using actors in our network, since the piece won’t need the narrator to be any type of real life authority — ideally we’ll try to film tomorrow. Waiting to hear from Graham on legal! Looks great, just one small ed attached. I also endorse Pratt. I like this. Pratt could be a good host, but would ask him to grow out his beard for gravitas. This line will need to be edited. Ever since Justice Scalia’s passing, the judicial branch has been in a difficult position. With only eight judges the court can’t break a tie. ​And​ Americans deserve a functional Supreme Court. My suggestions but Pratt and Graham Wilson will need to review: Ever since Justice Scalia’s passing, the Supreme Court has had to operate with only eight judges. Without the 9th vote, cases could deadlock on a 4-4 tie. And if Republicans get their way the court would go on that way for two full terms, this year and next. The American people deserve a fully functional Supreme Court. ________________________________ We’re looking at a couple folks, depends on how soon we can schedule! Who is playing the host?
