DeepSummary
The transcript begins with a conversation about Bluechew, a chewable form of Viagra and Cialis, and its advertisement. Then, John Batchelor discusses with Peter Berkowitz from the Hoover Institution about the issue of anti-Semitism on college campuses and what the presidential candidates can do to address it.
Berkowitz suggests that the federal government is prohibited by law from providing funds to universities that discriminate based on race or national identity. If universities are found to be engaging in such discrimination against Jewish students, he proposes that the government should cut off federal loans and research funds, which can amount to a significant sum, especially for elite universities.
Berkowitz emphasizes that he wants to know the moral intuitions of the candidates and their understanding of the federal government's power and limitations in addressing this issue.
