Dennis Prager interviews 17-year-old Samantha Gagliano from Alabama about her conservative values and concerns over Democratic candidates. She'd choose a great marriage over a great career and wants a devout, conservative husband. She urges listeners to support PragerU as a source of anti-socialist education for young people.
in Alabama, Samantha Gagliano. And I just checked out your Twitter page. You have 1,400 followers.
Really? Did you know that?
I'm sorry, I don't—
I didn't think I had 1,400.
Yeah, well, that's impressive. Okay. Yeah. Well, anyway, we were, uh, we're talking about, uh, about the, uh, the whole crisis in the country that we're undergoing. I'm curious, are you worried about America? You're 17, come from a conservative world. Are you worried?
I'm worried if we don't elect the right people, if we continue to elect socialists and borderline communist people I'm going to get worried to bring eventually children into this country. But if we continue electing the right people, then I really believe our country's on the right path.
So you will be worried if there is a Democratic victory in November?
Absolutely. I'm kind of scared for our country if Joe Biden becomes our president.
Well, I am too, but I was curious because there's such an age difference between us. I was just curious. Uh, how somebody your age with my values handles it emotionally, and I guess it's quite similar to, to my, my reaction. Uh, by the way, I just want to say, even, even if the bad guys win, I want you to have children.
Well, I plan to.
No, you said though about bringing children into the country. That's what I'm reacting to.
Okay.
So on that, I'll ask you one more, uh, well, two more things, and thank you for your time. The, uh, I asked this of, of virtually every young woman I meet. In other words, young, basically in their 20s or teens. And, uh, here it goes. So don't— you don't have to give me the answer you think I want, just Tell me the truth. If you could be guaranteed, you could be given one guarantee, and it doesn't mean the other cannot happen, it just means only one is guaranteed. One guarantee would be a great marriage, the other guarantee would be a great career. Which guarantee would you take?
That's a tough one. I would probably say a great marriage because if you don't have anything, at least you have your family.
All right. I was curious to hear that. I, uh, and the, uh, you know what, I'll put you on the spot. What's the ideal husband?
Ideal husband. I would like somebody with conservative values. I think that's a big one for me. I can't imagine somebody who leans left at all. Um, very religious. Those are my two main things. I'm pretty lenient, but definitely conservative values.
Nice, sounds good to me. All right, finally, one more put you on the spot question. You have 30 seconds. Why would you advise people to contribute to PragerU?
So people should donate to PragerU because it is helping saving the future of America. There's a lot of high school and college students that call for the lies of communism and socialists, and they vote in socialist politicians like Bernie Sanders. I am donating to PragerU, helps fund the truth and fund these educated videos that students and even people of all ages need in order to know our history and vote the right way so that our country can persevere its freedom.
Did you read that?
No.
That was pretty good. I hope we meet one day.
Me too. I hope to meet you in the future.
Wonderful. God bless you. That does give you hope. That's a big deal.
