Cenk Uygur asks Russell Brand what he thinks about Barack Obama. Has the President delivered?

“I try not to get optimistic about superficial suggestions. On a personal, charismatic level, I think Barack Obama seemed like a really lovely man. He sort of spoke differently from other politicians, but I think it’s impossible for the system that we currently have to provide us with real change. The system prevents it. The system would filter out any individuals that would present any realistic change. That is the function of this system, to prevent the parameters from stretching. The only way change can come is from outside of that system. As one of your main men there — Thomas Jefferson — said, “Every generation should have a revolution.”
